SQ-Drive page curious thing displayed

[Flo84Participant]

Hi A&H team and all,

I noticed that something curious to me in the Utility> Sq Drive page (stereo or multitrack mode)…

– On USB-B mode
– 1&2 USB channels routed to inputs 47&48
– 47&48 (stereo paired) routed only to Master+Matrix

In the SQ-Drive page 1&2 first channel meters display signal but don’t understand why because I don’t send any sound (unless I make a routing error…) and it’s true again when I unpatch the 1&2 USB channels (no sound go to the mixer that’s normal…).

Maybe I make wrong or it’s firmware issue ?

I give you some pictures from my I/O page.

Hello Steffen R,

I appreciate your suggestion but I read the manuals several times since I have the console (for over a year…) but I have not found my answer… But maybe can- you help me understand where I’m wrong.
Look at my images # 3 you can see that USB L and R are not patched to the USB outputs 1 and 2 but that (on picture # 6) on the first 2 tracks of the SQ-Drive that there is a signal …
For me the Direct Out isn’t patched and no Tie Line either.
For example adjusting the Direct Out trim doesn’t change the level received by the Sq drive, only a setting of the output level of the computer influences.

Thank’s

what are your meters displaying?

[SteffenRParticipant]

did you listened to the signals… what is your meter page showing…

Hi,
in “Input Meters” page my meters displaying the input signal normally : I playback music from my computer via “USB-B source” mode to inputs 47/48 and I can listen the signal normally (like pafl or sending to LR).
When I switch to the Sq-Drive page the sq-drive meters show me signals (from computer) in the first 2 meters even if the “direct out” from inputs 47&48 are not patched to the USB 1&2 outputs.

I realized that to remove the “USB L & USB R” from the inputs of the SQ-Drive I need to unpatch the USB 1&2 to inputs 47&48… but… it removes only the text displayed under the meters(in Sq-drive page), the signal goes on again (on meters).

Finally the USB 1&2 are directly routed to the first 2 Sq-Drive inputs no matter what patch settings…

I haven’t check if it’s the same thing with USB source set on Sq-drive mode.

I do not think that this is a real problem but I found it curious (although I know that to use the Sq-Drive normally we must put in usb source on Sq-drive).

Bests

the reference guide says: the metering in the SQ drive screen shows input and output metering
