        Hello Nick,

        since 5.6b3 i get problems to sync the right sample rate on my H8000FW.

        My wordclock system runs in 44.1 khz and there are an Orville, Preamp and H8000FW in the chain (RME Fireface 800 as Master). Every device is lock correctly, but the H8000 goes straight to 48 khz after booting. This issue i hadn't in 5.6b2.
        My setup and the connection are the same since b2 and is not moved or reconnected.

        Do you have an explanation or solution for this issue?

        all the best

        Mathias

          Hi Mathias

          Not aware of any such issues with 5.6. You could always go back to 5.5, but I would check your cables and settings first.

            This happens also, if i sync to ADAT not wordclock. Sometimes goes to 48000 hz and sometimes to 40518 hz after booting and is of couse not locked to a clock.

              i forget to say, that when the samplerate is wrong after booting, i go to the setup menu set the clock source to "int 44.1" and after the samplerate is gone to 44100 hz i can set the souce to wordclock or ADAT and its locked.

              I guess there is still an issue in the firmware.

              cheers

                Hi Matthias

                I can't duplicate this, so I have to believe it is a problem at your end. Try using the Orville as the W/C source and see if you have the same problem.

                  Hi Nick,

                  after "fix internals" and restarting the H8k on ADAT clock, i can sync now to wordclock permanently. i don't know why, the cables and everything are the same.

                  I suppose its hard to dublicate this issue, but there is something wrong with your firmware.

                  all the best

                    Hi –

                    Adding a +1 on this issue.  Upgraded from 5.5 to 5.6B3 and was unable to sync to my Mac over firewire.  Setup reported internal clock but FireWire1 and 2 were "slipping". 

                    Rebooted the unit a few times with no change.  I saw the note above about "fix internals" so I ran that.  On next reboot, the system said something about problems, and "recommend a restart".  Yikes!

                    Powered down again and now it seems to be syncing fine.

                    Something should be looked at here.
