Hello everyone,
I have a small problem with the separate outputs of my Analog Rytm Mk2.
Connections:
- AR BD – > Octatrack A
- AR SD – > Octatrack B
- Octatrack Main --> AR Ext In --> Analog Heat In
I would like to process the BD and SD outputs in my octatrack and have a problem with the incoming signal.
To do this I relied on the documentation of the two machines and on this page of support.
What seems strange to me is that the separate outputs are not balanced but, according to the document above, the signals they transmit is stereo.
So using a TRS cable my octatrack (which itself has balanced outputs) must invert the phase and this causes a big drop in volume as well as an alteration of the signal.
And trying with a TS cable, I theoretically only have part of the signal and therefore a significant drop in volume too.
I tried to recover the signal via Thru machine with these settings:
src-page
- Input A/B – A
- Vol – +63
(same for B input on another thru machine)
Where
src-page
- Input A/B – A+B
- Vol-- +63
(No gain on mixer page and amp page)
On my Analog Rytm, all off my track volume are set to 100 and all amp page too (and machines volume are up to max) for this two tracks.
Of course I tried all these configurations with both types of cables.
And so it was after long hours of reflection, reading the documentation and all the subjects that could relate to the subject that I came to ask for a little help to understand what I did not understand. .
I find myself distraught in front of something that seems so simple to me.
Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.
Have a great day.
