Silent analog outputs on Ultralite Mk3 despite meter lit

Post by amundsen »

Hello,

I have a weird issue. I moved my computer for a set and after having re-plugged my Ultralite MkIII Hybrid (USB connection) I don't have any sound on the analog outputs despite the level meters raised on the Ultralite's LCD. The issue happens with all the analog outputs. Howver if I set the headphones output to be fed by the main pair of outputs, I have sound in the headphones.

Is there some kind of mute I might have activated by accident? What should I check?

I am really puzzled. :shake: :shake: :shake:

You might have accidentally clicked the "Monitor" button in the "Outputs" tab at the bottom of a pertinent item and had the volume knob at the upper right turned down. I do that all the freakin' time.

Ah, this is interesting. Now I got my main stereo back. However I don't remember how I had an independent signal going on output 8 rather than into the main mix. But that helps a lot already. Thank you!
