I can't seem to get the acoustic reference to flow through, normally works fine, nothing after 1 hour of checking and messing around

Any guidance much appreciated. My set up has worked for years, but not today. Not sure if I've changed a setting unowingly, looks fine seeing others ?

My set up is Umik>laptop, output laptop USB to DAC then DAC to signal in to analogue processor via RCA. I always use front left for the timing ref and have front left connected as usual on and working these are my setting and the sweep play through the R channel to the speaker to be measured but nothing to the front left for the timing ref

Any advice much appreciated

John, Thanks, I'll try the right channel in this case it was connected to the subs (via the RF RCA) and there is a sweep with the R channel driving the subs plays, just no timing ref. In my experimentation I managed to get the sweep to come out of the laptop and a timing ref from from the L channel.I'll recheck all my connections again in the morning

Subwoofers cannot reproduce the timing signal, it is a 5 kHz to 20 kHz sweep. It has to go to a speaker.

John Tks, the left front is used for timing the R was fir subs. I found my problem, like an Idiot I must’ve accidentally turned off one of the preamp power supplies -Doh

Do all good now
