I tried switching on my PMD 661 from 24/48 to 24/96 without switching my SD MixPre-D and get the same message.

Of note if the sample rate frequencies are not set the same then the PMD661 will give you the same error message.



The Sample Rate Frequency on the PMD661 must be set to the same as the source sample rate frequency or no joy!

That is really old. Update it and your issues with the digital input should be fixed. It will also make the recorder compatible with larger, faster memory cards.

Any steps on how to update the f/w?

What's the current f/w version anyways?

OK...so, dumb question. I'm assuming I need to d/l the latest f/w with the 661 connected to my PC via the USB, correct?

Copy the .bin file to the root of the sd card. With Ac power connected, power on the recorder and follow the on-screen instructions.

So, I FINALLY got around to updating to the current F/W. Planning to tape Saturday night. Going to see if updating will now allow me to use the digi coax GAK right angle cable I bought.

If it doesn't, I have the Dynex digi coax that seems to work in my bag.

I wonder if the fact that the Dynex digi has gold connectors (I think) whereas the GAK digi has silver connectors plays a part in receiving the error message? This is the cable I had Ted make:
18" 75ohm Digital Cable w/ Switchcraft silver Right Angle

So, the f/w upgrade didn't seem to correct the digi cable issue. The GAK digi cable with the silver Switchcraft right angle still yielded the "Error D.In" message. Plugged in the Dynex w/ gold connectors and no error message...

Impedance can be a critical factor.
