Volume control not working with digital out

20 Jun 2009, 07:10

Hi Guys

I am new to the Roland G - sooo much to learn

When I connect the G8 with digital coaxial (audio) the volume knob does not work - it does work when I'm using standard output jacks. Has any else found this ? is there a way of making the colume control work when using digital out ?

Any info greatly recieved

Thanks

Steve

The volume knob controls volume only for the main outputs and the headphones jack. It is designed this way. You can't control the digital output level with the main volume knob. Same happens with analog outputs 3 and 4.

Thanks Cyclops - at least I know nothing is wrong with the G8 now - happy days

You can, however, assign one of the knobs (or a slider) to control the Digital Out level. In the System Menu Knob/Slider page, set the Knob (or Slider) Assign Source parameter to "Sys", and one of the knobs (or sliders) to "MASTER LEVEL". F7 to save your settings and voila!
