Folks, I really am stumped here. And I am going mad! I am using all
settings that have worked before: I/O settings in Pro Tools, same
session with same track properties, etc., same routing settings in my
Focusrite Scarlett 8i6, same Kemper settings/connections. When I tried
just using the previously successful session in order to have another reamping
session, it wouldn't work (I'll explain below). So, using the same
session, I tried reloading my previously successful I/O settings file
into that session. When that didn't work, I tried a whole new session
starting from scratch (I have videos showing all settings/connections
which I hoped would end this nonsense). Replicating everything from my
videos (it also shows those settings reamping successfully)
did not work. I have also tried other previously successful sessions
which are set up to reamp. I've also tried different things like
different rigs, restarting everything, reconnecting everything,
unplugging all but the necessary connections, also reinstalling Pro Tools 11.3.1 and the Focusrite software/drivers--you know, when you go to
the freezer to look for your car keys, that sort of desperation, but I
get the same results:
On the Kemper, as the clip-to-be-reamped plays through it, both input
and output lights are flashing yellowish, as I've seen before. So that
part of the chain seems good... And when I listen to my Kemper through a
Main Out into a monitor, I hear the clip being reamped. But it's not
hitting the Reamping Track at all! If I
switch the output on my Pro Tools track to my monitors, I can hear my
dry, un-reamped clip, but as soon as I switch the Output back over to
the Reamp bus, it's gone. I realize this may be a Pro Tools question,
and I'm heading over to the DUC after this, but I wanted to post here as
well, in case I am doing something wrong Kemper-wise.
As anyone gracious enough to look will see, I think my connections and
settings are correct? I haven't shown the S/PDIF connection, but it's reamping,
through my monitor, so that should be fine. I do have the tracks armed
to record, and I can record on these tracks if I switch my inputs to my
Scarlett inputs as usual.
What gives? Anything look wrong? Thanks in advance.
