New to D8B! Need Help With Setup

[synthjoe]

Do yourself a favour and dowload the manual. It's not too bad to get you started.

I agree, then if you are still unsure you can let us know what pages you have followed.

Ok I read to page 30 and I'm getting the meters to respond! But, no audio at all. Tried near field and main but no sound at all. Just the meters but this is great because I didn't even get these working previously.

Have you assigned the relevant channels to the L/R mix bus? At the top of the GUI.

On the D8B or in the OS?

Also just noticed the meters froze up but faders and buttons still working. Another thing is the LED in the meter bridge has seems to have a short or something. Gain on each knob default is 0.0 dB but one says 0.1dB and if I barely touch the top of the knobs (low, low mid, hi mid, hi) it's starts flickering different dB. Did I just waste $200?

Waste $200? Geez, I spent close to $10,000 all up. You need to read past page 30 of the manual and also digest the database. You're talking about the fat channel. Nothing to do with just passing a signal. I'd like to make a comment about spoons and feeding but I'll just get a sideways glance. Keep up.

Ok what's the database? I only went to 30 because I'm just trying to make sure my audio is coming out my speakers. I just got this board few months ago and I bought it on faith lol

Let’s Get Some Spoon Feeding Happening:
from page 8 of the manual....
• Mixer Power On.
• Monitors connected and on.
• Microphone or Instrument plugged into Channel One.
• Phantom Power button pushed in if required.
• Fader Bank 1 (MIC/LINE selected).
• Press the MIC button down when using a microphone; leave it up for an instrument.
• While sound source is active, adjust TRIM for a reading around –15 on the channel 1 meter.
• Select L–R in the ASSIGNMENT section, then verify that the ASSIGN button on Channel One lights up green.
• In the CONTROL ROOM section, select MASTER L–R.
• Select the desired SPEAKERS in the CONTROL ROOM section.
• Set the SPEAKER LEVEL V-pot to about 11:00.
• Turn the MASTER L/R fader up to unity.
• Slowly raise the level of the Channel One fader until you hear sound.
• The Master L/R meters should display levels.
• Rejoice in the sense of accomplishment while listening to crystal-clear audio.
