Hello Everyone,
I could benefit from some assistance with re-amping in Logic using the Saffire Liq 56 interface.
Here’s my set up:
Saffire Liquid 56
Saffire mix control software
AXE-FX II Mark I, Firmware 14.02
Macbook Pro, Mavericks OS, AXE-FX driver most current
SPDIF connections both directions from Saffire 56 to AXE-II with good quality cables
Saffire 56 as Master, 48 kHz
Problem:
I am trying to use SPDIF connections to send the dry signal to the AXE-FX for re-amping and then back to Logic for recording. I am unable to get my dry signal back into the AXE-FX via SPDIF and then back to Logic. When I play back the dry track and record on a new track I hear no sound. I can hear the dry track but no signal comes from the AXE-FX to the new track. I’ve also checked the input signals on the Utility page of the AXE-FX while playing the dry track. There doesn’t appear to be any signal coming through when playing the dry track. It appears that my signal isn’t getting to the AXE-FX. I’ve read through the forums. I believe I have all the settings correct on the AXE-FX I/O menu. Sample rate is 48kHz on Liq 56 and it is the Master, in sync. I do not have the dreaded “no input clock” error on the AXE-FX II except only briefly when switching the input to SPDIF. I do know that I can receive signals from the AXE-FX via SPDIF out. I have tried recording this way from the AXE-FX and it works fine.
My concern is that there is some simple setting I’ve overlooked. Or there is something about the quirky yet powerful Saffire Mix Control software that isn’t configured correctly. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. If I’ve missed something ridiculously obvious, I apologize in advance. Thanks.
Chris
