DESPERATE FOR HELP TODAY. It is Saturday and Focusrite is closed.
SITUATION:
I have 3 Focusrite Saffire Pro 40's.
I spoke with a tech from Focusrite yesterday and know that only 2 will work daisy-chained via firewire.
This tech (very nice guy buy the way), informed me that I had to do the following:
1) Run the first 2 units in UNIT MODE and the 3rd in STANDALONE MODE.
2) To do this, I have firewire from my computer into UNIT 1 and a firewire going from UNIT 1 to UNIT 2.
3) The 3rd unit, I have a firewire going directly to the computer, and then an ADAT (optical) cable going from UNIT 3 OUT to UNIT 1 IN.
To setup the UNIT 3 for standalone mode", in the MIX CONTROL SOFTWARE, I set all ADAT OUTPUTS (1-8) to Analog In 1-8, respectively.
When I get everything turned on, all units fire up, except unit #3 does not physically show any connection (both lights on bottom "FW ACTIVE" and "LOCKED" are not lit)
I see All 3 units in the MIX CONTROL SOFTWARE, and Unit 2 and 3 are greyed out (which is good because UNIT 1 is "Sync Master".)
Anyway, I'm looking for somebody that can perhaps advice me here, or even be willing to walk me through on the phone. I may even pay you for it if you have paypal and help me get this working!!! $$$$
