with the AS direct to Mac.
I did a Factory Reset. Still empty in first three presets and no audio.
I was able to save the defaults into 1, 2 and 3. Still no audio.
A looked at the External Control section. Enable External Control is off. I toggled it and saw it go green, reset to grey/unselected.
Still no audio.
Then I increased the output and the Drive settings, heard a relay click and now I have audio when the AS is not engaged. Soon as I engage, It mutes audio in effect position 1. which is a save as of the default I see in slot 4.
i/o is set to automatic.
... Neuro Desktop just crashed hard. on reboot it no longer sees the AS via USB.
Beginning to think the AS is toast.
