Logitech Transporter out of sync with EMM Labs DAC6e SE word clock
Good day ~
I’ve posted about this issue in another discussion, but figure I’ll start one here specifically for it.
I recently purchased an EMM Labs DAC6e SE, and got it hooked up to my Logitech Transporter earlier today. I’m outputting PCM data over AES/EBU and have slaved it to the DAC6e’s word clock via BNC. The DAC locks to the signal, reporting no errors on the front panel, but is putting out loads of crackling sounds along with the music. I can then go in and set the Transporter as master and the DAC6e to lock to the external clock, and the crackling is gone. One of the reasons I purchased the DAC6e was that I could utilize its (I’ll assume) superior word clock; without it, I’m only adding jitter to the equation, thus - in my humble opinion - negating its use.
There are a few old threads out there on the Slim Devices forum, but there is no solution even stated; but the fact that things are out of sync seems to the be issue. I’ve left a voice message for EMM Labs; as the Transporter is no longer supported I can only look to the forums, which I’ll be posting this identical information to shortly.
Anyhow, if you have any thoughts or suggestions, please let me know.
Thanks, as always, for your time.
