Layla 24 and Masterlink S/PDIF Question [message #97802]

Anyone familiar with Layla products? I'm not sure what's going on here, but
my Layla 24 won't link up and transmit audio to my Masterlink. This box is
running only Gigasampler on XP with one Layla 24 and the console and it
works fine otherwise. It says in the manual that no Echo hardware transmits
the SCMS bit. I assume this is the Serial Copy Management System built into
Minidiscs and DATs. This shouldn't have anything to do with it.

In the Layla 24 Console the digital out meters do not light up. I can't seem
to get the digital out to work at all. I've looked over the manual but can't
figure out why it won't transmit digital audio.

I'm using a coaxial cable with unknown ohms which has worked in other S/PDIF
apps before with no problem, but in the manual it recommends using a 75 ohm
RG59 video cable? I never had a problem before sending data out of Paris
into the Masterlink. The analog outputs work fine. Is there possibly a
setting in the Layla console which I'm not aware of? If there is I can't
find it. Anyone got a clue what's going on here?

Appreciated,
Rich

Interesting. I just realized I don't have the VxD console installed. I'll
bet that's it.

I sent this to Layla regarding the problem, including the computer
configuration.

First name: Rich
Last name: Lamanna

Phone number: C: 518 496-6684, W:518 381-9719

Email address: richlamanna@earthlink.net

Echo hardware: Layla 24

Echo driver version: 7.3

Audio software: Gigasampler, SoundMax integrated Digital Audio (Asus
motherboard supplied audio driver)

Operating system and version: Win XP Pro

Processor model and clock speed: AMD Duron TM MP, 1.7 GHz, 1.5 GB ram

Motherboard manufacturer: Asus A7V8X-X

Motherboard chipset (e.g. VIA PT880 Pro/Ultra chipset): Northbridge VIA
KT400, Southbridge VIA VT8235

Other PCI and FireWire devices: Promise Sata300 TX2plus IDE Controller

Other audio hardware:

Description of your problem: I cannot get Layla to transmit digital audio
via S/PDIF to my Alesis Masterlink. The console meters on digital out 1/2 do
not light up, no digital audio is being transmitted as far as I can tell.
Analog audio works fine. Concurrently I cannot find the VxD Console in the
Start Menu. Isn't that included in the driver intallation? Should I
reinstall the drivers and will this mess up my Gigasampler install?
