Hi Moses

To output audio to a PortB module you need to go to the Outputs page on the surface touchscreen and select the PotB tab. If you have your MADI card fitted to Port B it will say ‘PortB:MADI’

You should then be able to select channels 1 - 64 and choose what source you would like to send out of the Port B MADI e.g input direct out or Mixrack inputs.

To recieve audio to input channels on the iLive from an external source select the preamp of a channel and select the source PortB:MADI and you will have a choice of MADI channels 1-64.

To set all input channels to source there inputs from PortB quickly go to the ‘mixrack setup’ page then ‘mixer preferences’ - ‘Quick input source setup’: here you can tell a range of inputs to source audio from either Port B or local inputs.

Note:

You need to make sure you have the correct audio clock setup. If you wish the iLive to be the master audio clock set the clock source on the iLive to Internal.

This is the recommended setup for connecting a computer to iLive via MADI.

Physical connections:

iLive PortB Link1 Out port to Link 1 in port on the computer pcie card

iLive PortB Link1 In Port to Link 1 Out Port on the computer pcie card

for further information please follow the link below to the understanding MADI guide:

Hi Moses

Yes you can use the RME MADI card with iLive MADI module.

It sounds like the iLive MADI modules are working if you can get audio between your iLive systems ‘dr 16 and t -80 i can see the mirror inputs coming from idr 48/t-112 to idr 16 /t 80’.

This sounds like a configuration issue in your recording software nuendo. I do not have nuendo so i’m unsure of exactly how you setup the audio routing in the software. Things to check in the software: make sure the audio device selected is the RME MADI

setup some audio channels and make sure their source is coming from MADI 1-64 check that record arm is on in the software and that input monitor is also switched on.

Hope that helps
