How in the world do you get sound????

[gtrplayer_1966]

I'm new at this, and am running a Delta 66 with an omni i/o box and using HomeStudio 2004.

How do I get sound???????????????????????????????????????????????????

I'm using a Fostex VF80 and I have a coax (with rca ends) running from S/PDIF out to the sound card.

Maybe I should run the regular "outs" to the omni i/o box and see what happens.

thanks

THat doesn't work either.

Does the soundcard have a S/PDIF input? S/PDIF is a digital signal and will NOT work on an analog input.

It's a Delta66 so yes, it has s/pdif inputs

Are you using digital coaxial cables, or just regular audio RCAs?

 

[gtrplayer_1966]

yes, coax cable....

what is interesting though is all of the suddend I can no longer see my soundcard icon in the systray. (where the little yellow speaker should be) (of which USED to be there, but when I installed my Delta66 the little yellow speaker was replaced with the Delta66 icon, of which is not there anymore.)

I can hear sound when playing mp3 files etc.. through itunes and the sound card selected is the Delta, so I know its there and I know it's working....

OK. In your recording software, have you selected the S/PDIF as the source when setting up a track? How about clock settings? Is the computer set to slave to the incoming S/PDIF?
