Zenitram Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 I don't suppose anyone here uses a Digidesign MBox 2 interface, with the SPDIF connectors, at all, do they? My Novation Ultranova synth has a SPDIF out, so I thought I'd give it a whirl. I enable the out in the audio menu, and plug in my newly acquired 75 ohm SPDIF cable to the SPDIF in on the Mbox, but it doesn't work. The SPDIF led doesn't come on, and there's no sound reaching the MBox, or so it seems. If anyone has any ideas, or experience with SPDIF, then, er, that would be great.

Zenitram Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 Never mind; I got it to work. You have to specify this and that in a DAW for it to work, which it does. Which is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul_5 Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 glad you've got it sorted. I was about to suggest enabling S/PDIF in your software but as you've done it I won't... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenitram Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 Yeah, I was hoping it would work alongisde the analogue inputs, but it seems that it doesn't, that the DAW (Reaper and Reason, in my case), will accept either the analogues or the digital, but not both. So it's less useful than I thought it would be, but that's only because I thought it did something that it doesn't. It might do what I think it does in Pro Tools, but I have uninstalled it and don't intend to use it, so, er, stuff it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
