I'm guessing that you didn't have the monitor switch engaged in the DAW? We've all done it.
Using the headphone port and dial directly on the Ox is sounding good, however when I switch over to the line out and headphones through the audio interface there seems to be quite a bit of 'white noise'. Does anyone know why this could be?
I have attached a screenshot below showing the setting on my audio interface and hoping its just a small error I have in the settings used...
Just one thing I am struggling with now. When you say the analogue level should be line in, not instrument, I am only getting a reading when it is on the 'instrument' option.
The only choices in the 'Analog Level' menu for this are: Mic, +4dbu, -10 dbu or instrument.
I have attached two pictures below showing a reading coming through on the 'instrument' tab and no reading for the '+4 dbu' tab (which I assume is one of the line in options):
Appreciate any help!
OK. The +4 / -10 dBu option only applies to the XLR inputs (which can be set for mic or line). The 1/4" jack inputs are HiZ only. You can put a line level signal through them but you'll have to adjust the gain knob to find the optimum setting
If you have a colourised meter then keep it in the green. There is a tendency, even amongst musicians who are too young to have worked with tape, to push signals to just below clipping. There is no need to do this. This is a hangover from the days of tape where signal to noise ratio was an issue. In today’s world of 24 bit digital you don’t have to worry about this and you should be leaving plenty of headroom.
This can all seem a bit overwhelming at first but stick with it. You'll get there and looking back you'll wonder why it was all so difficult.So if I discount the +4 and -10 option on the ‘Analog Level’ tab, this only leaves ‘Mic’ and ‘Instrument’ to choose from - which one of these options would I use?
Would the ‘Mic’ be deemed the line in option needed?
Apologies for being such a novice but I can’t find any guidance online for this.
Should I be running two separate trs cables from the ox to the audio interface?
I did ask this earlier in the thread and was told to use the Instrument in port rather than the XLR port. I probably didn’t explain myself properly though.
So it seems that I need to run two line ins to get stereo and XLR seems to be the best option.
The breakout cable for the audio interface has a female xlr port, so if I order two 1/4 balanced trs to male xlr cables should this work?
I thought Hi-Z wasn't only about additional gain. Then again, I plug my piano into my Hi-Z inputs and tell the AI to regard them as Line-in instead.
Does the XLR input have the 1/4 inch input option too? I could plug my piano into the XLR inputs on my AI but I prefer to keep them free for microphones.
