Hi again.
Having configured and measured the Presonus Audiobox USB, I would really like to use my RME Fireface400 as I believe it is a much superior product.
However, I'm having some trouble configuring the unit to work with REW.
Here's what I've done so far:
1. Selected the Fireface400 as my Default Unit in the Sound Preferences
2. Left the Default Device option menu selectic (as it was by default)
3. Connected a loopback cable from Output 1 into the front panel Input 1 (tried with both a balanced and an unbalanced cable)
4. Started the measurement option in the REW panel so I could adjust the levels, just as I did for the Presonus
5. REW sends the test tone to the outputs. But I only get chaotic pulses at the input meter bars.
6. Checked the RME Fireface mixer:
6.1. Levels are coming out ok from the Playback outputs
6.2. Levels are being correctly routed to the physical outputs
6.3. Levels seem to be coming in correctly at the physical input 1
6.4. The physical input is not being routed to any outputs so as not to create feedback loops
So I'm guessing this is probably some driver/software/version/bug issue with REW and the Fireface/OS X (10.5.8) ?
Has anyone faced a similar behavior with a RME Fireface400 under Mac OS X?
Thanks for your help.
Best regards from Lisbon.
