Troubleshooting
No Sound Output
All Post Suites:
-
-
Check audio output in System Settings. They should be set to the settings listed in this document—RedNet PCIeNX for Posts 1-3 | Red 16Line for Post 4.
-
Check audio settings in the Application so that it matches System Settings or uses System Settings.
-
Check samplerate in Audio MIDI Set-Up application on macOS—RedNet PCIeNX (or Red 16Line in Post - 4) must be set to 48kHz (aka 48,000Hz)
-
Check the samplerate of your project file. It must be set to 48kHz.
-
In Pro Tools, the Session has audio-mapping. This is configured in the Pro Tools template. If using your own Pro Tools session file, you will have to configure the I/O settings.
-
Do not use more than one application at a time. Having two different applications utilizing Apple CoreAudio can cause a conflict.

Quit the Red Control application entirely, and launch the Hamel Reset app. Then re-open the Red Control application. This ensures that the RedNet R1 control interface has the proper settings.

The Output Level knob controls the output volume for the selected output.

If TV audio is not outputting, there is a small amplifier at the backside of the workstation in the cable tray. It can be rebooted via the power switch.
-
If local speakers are not outputting, check their power switches.
