sp/dif

[Jack]

The UMC1820 has a sp/dif in. When I connect it to a HD24 I expect to see more channels from the HD in LightJams. Namely channel 8 to 16.

But that is not happening. I wonder why that is. Aren't those extra 8 lines to be shown ?

Sorry, I'm not familiar with this setup. However, I'm not sure how plugging something into the sp/dif in would show the other device channels. I may be mistaken but the sp/dif port transports one audio signal and not the information about the connected channels.

A quick read in the manual for the UMC series. SP/IF supports stereo input only on this device unless you push that "ADAT" button. That unlocks the 8 channels, but then you need an ADAT source.

The channels are not unlocked obviously. I'm using an Alesis HD 24 multitrack recorder with 3 optical sp/dif outs for each 8 channels. There are 3 sp/dif outs.

But it's not important. Obviously LightJams can't 'unlock' them. No problem.
