Ok,



I am a newbie.



I am having routing problems, or maybe its my computer

setup.



I just started setting up my system so I only

hooked up one of my pre amps.



I am running a Lynx Aurora 8 Though a Dangerous D-box.



The set up is strange. Here is why



Out of my computer, I have an AES16 card from Lynx


I have the HD26 to D25 going from port A on the Aurora Aes16

to the AES in on the back of the Aurora 8.


Then I have the Analog out going into the sum input

of the sum in of the D-box via a DB25 to DB25 cable.



I have a DB25 breakout cable going out of the Analog in

to the two Stereo outputs of a Trident 4t Chanel Strip.

I am using 1 and 2 on the break out xlr's.



I pluged in XLR's 7 & 8 from Analog in break out to the back of the D-box

and put them in sum outs.



The first problem is I can only monitor through Sum on the D-box.

The back of the D-box has a DAW XLR but I have no

way to route it back into my computer, because the

AES16 card is HD26 and the cable I am using is the

HD26 to DB25.



I have two Event 8" monitors hooked up to the main outs

of the D-box.



So, I can only monitor through sum, but for some reason the

monitor level seems low. If I play a CD in my computer

I have to almost crank the D-box up to hear it.

ESP with the headphones. Ihave to turn them up almost

all the way.



If I look at the level on the Aurora mixer it seems fine.



So, I tried a trial recording through Cubase.



1) I set up an Audio track Stereo or Mono in 1&2 (the Trident has some

funky way of having stereo outs.) Routed out to Stereo 1 & 2.



2) Hooked up a Bass guitar to the Instrument DI on the front

of the Trident. I pluged the headphones in the front

of the channel strip and adjusted volume and it sounded

fine, nice and punchy. But then, I pluged the Headphones

into the Dbox and I can hardley hear it.



The signal to the Aurora mixer is strong, but when you

look on the cubase mixer the meter is hardley hitting

half way. I would have to crank the trident up

to 10 on instrument input and output to get a strong

signal in cubase.



Any suggestions?



Does anyone know a service where I could do a via Remote Session

with someone?



Also, I would Paypal someone to help me out. There is

nobody in my area.

I would paste URL's of my Equiptment but the forum will not allow URL's

Thank you
