Troubleshooting

Q:
Two messages "An error has occurred..." and "Symphony is now configured correctly" are
alternately displayed onscreen. How can I stop this and get the system to settle down?
A:
There are a few reasons this may occur:
There may be a mismatch exists between the CoreAudio sample rate (as indicated in
the OS X utility Audio Midi Setup) and the hardware's sample rate. This occurs most
frequently when the first hardware interface is clocked externally to a Master clock
such as Apogee's Big Ben. Be sure that the Master clock is set to the same sample
rate as the CoreAudio sample rate.
All Hardware interfaces aren't synchronized – verify that all hardware interfaces are
receiving clock from the master clock.
Q:
My Apogee interfaces aren't appearing in Maestro – how can I remedy this?
A:
Interfaces won't appear in Maestro until they are properly connected and clocked;
make sure that the Lock indications on each hardware interface indicate a stable lock
at the correct sample rate.
If some interfaces are appearing but others aren't, be sure that the configuration of
interfaces connected is supported, i.e listed in the Interface Connections Chart on
10-15.
Keep in mind that setting an AD or DA16X in Advanced routing will change the number
of interfaces that may be connected. Thus, 2 ADs and 2 DAs in Standard routing will
all appear in Maestro, while only the first AD/DA pair appears when set in Advanced
routing.
Q:
When Apogee hardware interfaces don't appear in Maestro, how can I set the first interface
to External clock?
A:
When first configuring a Symphony setup with an external Master clock, one may
encounter the situation whereby the first interface must be set to External Clock in
Maestro, but can't appear in Maestro until clock is correctly configured. To overcome
this conundrum, select the Maestro menu item Tools > Reset Symphony Clocking; a
dialog box appears offering the options to set clock on the first hardware interface to
External or Internal.
