Known issues

Start up errors

When the Pro Tools® software starts up, it uses the settings defined during the previous session, e.g. number and type of Audio

Interfaces, I/O setup, etc.

If you have used a Legacy Audio Interface (defined throug h menu: SetupHardware), and then replaced its current Audio

Interfaces with the Delta-Link MADI HD, the Pro Tools® software will display the following error message: “DAE error -1125

was encountered”. This is because the LegacyAudio Interface cannot be detected anymore. After clicking “OK”, the ProTools®

software will close without allowing you to change the Hardware setup!

Solution 1. (Mac or PC)

An easy way to get arou nd this problem is to startup P roTools® with the Delta-Link MADI HD s witched OFF. The

 

following message will eventually be displayed: “Unable to find an Audio Interface attached to..”. At this point, power

 

up the Delta-Link MADI HD and click “OK”. Pro Tools® will then continue its start up procedure.

Solution 2. (Mac Only)

Another way to solve t his problem is to de lete t he “ DigiSetup.OSX” f ile and the “D AE p refs” fold er i n t he

 

“Library/Preferences” folder. This will force Pro Tools ® to start up using a d efault configuration (48kHz, limit ed

 

“Voices”, no Hardware knowledge...)

For either solution, now go to menu:and make sure all Legacy Interfaces are removed from the Peripherals

list (see over leaf).SetupHardware
