Whew! Well at least I wasn't trying to do the impossible.

So here is my routing and system setting information:

Analog 1/2/3/4 input to Main inputs (no other inputs)

Opto in: ADAT; Opto out: ADAT;

DSP A: Analog 1/2/3/4 to IN 1/2/3/4; nothing to IN 5/6/7/8

DSP B: Analog 1/2/3/4 to IN 1/2/3/4; nothing to IN 5/6/7/8

Outputs: Main Analog: DSP A Out 1 + DSP B Out 1 = ANA1

Outputs: Main Analog: DSP A Out 2 + DSP B Out 2 = ANA2

Outputs: Main Analog: DSP A Out 1 + DSP B Out 1 = ANA3

Outputs: Main Analog: DSP A Out 2 + DSP B Out 2 = ANA4

Outputs: No DIG1 Outputs

Outputs: ADAT: Main Out 1 to Out 1

Outputs: ADAT: Main Out 2 to Out 2

Outputs: ADAT: Main Out 3 to Out 3

Outputs: ADAT: Main Out 4 to Out 4

Outputs: ADAT: Main Out 5 to Out 5

Outputs: ADAT: Main Out 6 to Out 6

Outputs: ADAT: Main Out 7 to Out 7

Outputs: ADAT: Main Out 8 to Out 8

Outputs: No AES Outputs

Outputs: No FIREWIRE1 Outputs

Outputs: No FIREWIRE2 Outputs

Clock: Source = ADAT; Source Rate = 48000; ADAT = OK

48 LED and EXT LED are lighted (not blinking, but on all the time)

I have a Gibson Echoplex loop plugged into the analog #1 jack. I can hear it on the PA system. The DIGI003/ProTools LE 7.4 system is connected to the H8000FW by Monster ADAT cables that show light at each end of their respective tunnels.

The hardware setup on ProTools is: Optical format = ADAT; Clock source = Internal; Sample Rate = 48000 kHz

I have a session open in ProTools with one audio track. The input for that audio track is set to what ProTools calls "optical channel 9/10".

When I enable recording on that track and press the "record" button, no signal shows in the meter.

I really don't know what to expect since this is first time I am attempting to record a digital signal.

Thank you for any help to can give; I know how difficult it is to troubleshoot remotely.
