      Hi,

      I have an Orville, connected to my Pro Tools system via AES. I have wordclock coming form a Big Ben. The unit works perfectly with lower sampling rates but the moment I use 88 or 96 and hit play, all I get are digital artifacts.

      Anyone have ideas?

      thanks,

      hw

      Is your Wordclock connected to both Orville and Protools ?

      What is your sample clock setting on Orville ?

      What is your sample clock setting on Protools?

      Does it do it with the "Thru" preset ?

      Does it do it if you bypass the Orville by connecting the AES cables to and from the Protools together ?

      Wordclock is connected

      Sample clock is set to word clock – but the same happens if I us AES

      All my clock settings are the same for all devices – everything is clocked off of the Big Ben.

      It only does it when I hit play and yes it does do it on the "thru' preset

      As I said before – it only happens at 88k and above sample rates….44.1 or 48 it is fine and eveything works perfectly.

      Thanks!

      also – as you are a staff member, do you guys have upgrade paths to the 8000?

      thanks!

      We do. For unclear reasons it's not mentioned on the Web Site, so you should contact support@eventide.com.

      Regarding your 96k problem – you didn't reply to my suggestion of connecting the AES in and outs.

      That is how it is connected – through the AES ins and outs. Ive tried using the Wordclock as the source and AES as the source and still the issue persists…

      or am I not understanding your question?

      thanks..

      OH – no, it does not happen if I just connect the cables together…

      Starting to look like a hardware problem. Sorry.

      Try setting the sample rate to 96k internal, running some audio into the analog in, then set up the routing so that it comes in analog, goes out digital. Connect digital out to digital in with an XLR cable, then route digital in to analog out and listen to it.

      If it sounds bad, there is a hardware problem – support@eventide.com
