Hi folks. I'm trying to get my expansion card (Slot 3) to work with my DM4800 using an XLRf to DB25 cable, but I'm experiencing some trouble. My goals are to track using external preamps instead of the Tascam preamps for physical channels 1-8, use the Tascam preamps for all the other channels, and send all tracks via the FW card (Slot 1) to Logic Pro 9.
The signals coming from the analog card are selected as follows in the Routing Input Tab:
Physical Channel 1 = Slot3-1...
Physical Channel 8 = Slot 3-8
As soon as I select these inputs, the meters on my MU1000 for channels 1-8 go nuts, as if there was an electrical disturbance on those channels. There is no signal passing through those channels to the computer or monitors. If I select a blank input, the meter for that channel goes quiet again. I have even disconnected the cable to the analog card, but as long as the Slot 3 1-8 channels are selected as inputs, the meters light up, flicker, and otherwise indicate a problem.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
