For reasons that I will not go into, I had to yank the power cord out, to shut down my Kemper Stage quickly.
Before that, the spdif out of the Kemper worked great as a master clock for my Focusrite 6I6 and I got perfect audio from it via the spdif out.
After the incident, the spdif from the Kemper no longer locks in the Focusrite settings. In other words, the Kemper will no longer be the master clock because the Focusrite says it is not locked.
Under output settings on the Kemper, I have spdif output set to master stereo, "spdif out link" on and set to auto. Setting it to internal instead of auto does not change the lack of lock. The sample rate is set to 48hkz on both devices.
The coaxial cable is firmly connected to the spdif out and to the spdif in on my sound card.
I am at a loss as to why it is not working. I thought that setting it to auto would make the Kemper a master clock source.
Is there some setting or settings that additionally need to be set to make the Kemper a locking master clock for the Focusrite?
Thank you for any solutions that end up working.
