Bingo - thanks John. :T
I had no idea the computer's "spkr icon" level would affect the output of the UR242 ... but it does! (Spkrs had been set to 'mute'! :sad:)
Onwards I go with measuring! :)

Tried connecting the UR242 direct to the left amp (with 'L' selected in the "Measure" screen) - still no sound! :sad:
Which I guess is good in a way ... in that it indicates that all the other items in the sound chain (that were bypassed for that test) are not causing the fault?
So then I:
*...
Thanks for those suggestions, John.
Yes, I will try:
a. power-cycling the miniDSP, and
b. connecting the UR242 direct to an amp.
I'll let you know how I go.
Andy
Well for the 10 days between my last post and today ... it was all working as it should!
But today, I am not getting the "cheep'n'sweep' noise from the spkrs! :sad: I made no changes from yesterday - simply turned on my computer this morning.
I've even taken my Steinberg UR242 back to the...
Thank you for your patience with me, John. It seems that I had the R&L sub channels reversed, on the sub DAC output. When I changed to another DAC, I (accidentally) reversed the outputs - and that solved the lack of noise problem. So then I realised where I had gone wrong - corrected it ...
Thanks, John - yes, that is a possibility.
However, the 20-200Hz sweep comes out of the R mid when the R amp is turned on ... just does not appear from the sub, when it is turned on.
The ADC has no knowledge of what amps are on - or off - further down the signal chain ... hence my...
Hi John,
Hopefully, the attached schematic of my system explains it to your satisfaction:
When radio is selected in the 4-way source selector ... music plays through the sub - and the R channel main spkr.
When the UR242 is selected:
* the sweep comes through the R mid, when the R sub is...
Yes, that makes sense, John, - except that sound comes from the main spkr when I turn on the amp driving it. Only when I turn on the R sub and turn off the R main-spkr amp do I get no sound - despite the radio coming through the sub when that source is selected instead of the UR242.
That's...
Alas, John - after reading that doc, I did the following:
1. Selected the Output device in "Preferences"
... which lead to this, when I hit 'Measure':
But still the same result :frown: :
* no sound from the R sub (despite the radio coming through that sub, outside of REW)
* but...
John,
"Output" is greyed out ... so I have no ability to make a selection?
EDIT: I closed REW and re-opened it. This time, after clicking on "Measure" and getting the "Make a measurement" window, "Output" is not greyed out ... but there is only 1 option in the drop-down ("Default output")...
Aah, thanks, John.
No, I don't remember ever actually selecting the output device - so I will try that soon, when I start measuring again.
Thank you for the suggestion! :T
Andy
I've been using REW for a few years - but am certainly not an expert user.
But I've successfully measured frequency sweeps on several occasions (to set relative driver volumes in my active spkrs) and never previously had the problem I am about to describe. Which has me absolutely stumped...
Thank you, John.
Yes, I saw that reference to "%" in the miniDSP text - but couldn't understand how to achieve it. :sad:
But I have just figured it out. So I now have % on the Y axis ... however the graph itself means nothing to me. :redgrin:
Yes, the subs are separately located to my...
