i'm running it for the first time this weekend at magfest. my first go-round was to run it analog out of the v3, big mistake. the v3 is running at no overs(like normal
) but the MT is getting slammed. no way to lower the inputs further. are you guys running attentuators out of the v3?
next, send it aes2 since spdif is being used by patchers. of course, any decent rca connector will not fit into it without doing some surgery(ruining any chance of sending it back) possibly, due to aes, the meters are going haywire. i can see the sustained peak indicator, but the 'level' line is sometimes nowhere near it, or, spiking off the chart. mainly happening between songs, where there is dialog, then chills when the music starts. open up the codetalkers when i get back to camp, and i can see the music,
and two HUGE blocks of solid noise on both channels at two different places in the recording.(unit was not jostled during recording)
the 1/4" jacks must have been purchased at wilbur's a/v supply shop, pretty loose. i'm going to give it a go with spdif today, after shaving down a perfectly good end of a plastic spdif cable, and see what happens today.
on the other hand, the qcool card reader worked flawlessly during transfer from CF, although a little slow. not too slow that i wasn't able to transfer during set breaks. and the great part is, i gave the thing to david gans to transfer his set from it to his lappy via usb. the thing inhales it's battery pretty quick though. but, even dead, you can at least transfer since it's powered by usb.
more to come...
