Solution

: Although it may seem obvious, the first thing to check is that

there is a physical connection between the device generating the clock and

Layla24’s rack mount interface. Just because multiple devices are connected

to the same computer doesn’t mean they are synchronized. Next, be sure

that you have selected the desired input clock source in the Layla24

Echo

Console

Problem:

Recordings made using the S/PDIF port contain occasional pops

or skips.

Solution

: When recording with the S/PDIF port, you must manually select

the S/PDIF clock as the input clock. This can be done using the Layla24

Echo Console

Problem:

You keep hearing a high-pitched squealing sound or your S/PDIF

or ADAT signal has gone crazy.

Solution

: Reset the sample rate of Layla24. You may have set the sample

rate to 11kHz or 22kHz. Because neither S/PDIF nor ADAT support these

rates, you will have problems syncing until you reset Layla24’s sample rate

to one within spec (like 44.1 or 48kHZ). You can do this through your

ASIO program’s controls or by playing an audio file of the appropriate

sample rate through Layla24s outputs. Then you will be able to sync

properly.

Problem:

I can’t get Layla24 to record at 96 kHz.

Solution

: Set the Digital Mode to one of the S/PDIF options. You can

change this setting from the Echo Console. When the Digital Mode is set to

ADAT you are limited to the sample rates that are within the ADAT spec

(such as 44.1 and 48kHz). Please note that you can only record above 48

kHz through the analog I/O. We will add support for recording through

S/PDIF at 88.2 and 96 kHz in a future driver release.
