I cant figure out my ES-3

Post by Triky1305 »

Hi Expert Sleepers users + staff

Ive sent this as an email to you, but i thought maybe the muffwiggler community could provide additional help.

Ive just bought an ES-3 and im really excited to get it working.

As it says in the (very short) es-3 manual, that I can just put a
plugin on a mixer slot and route that mixer slot to the adat output
I want that CV to come out of on my ES-3, it tried that, and i cant
get it to work...
For the test i just put a silent way LFO on a channel in cubase and routed
the channel output to ADAT output 1, then i patched a cable from output 1
on the ES-3 into the pitch input of an oscillator, just to check if it worked.
Unfortunately it didnt.
Ive tried several other plugins like the stepped LFO, and ive also tried to
get the SW voice controller working, with no luck either, and i have followed
the video tutorials on your website.
The ADAT cable seems to be working just fine lights up red at the end when
plugged into the interface, and its brand new.

Im pretty clueless and frustrated right now, so i thought id shoot you a mail
for a solution or some new ideas/things to check.

Kind regards!

Does the big 'Sync' LED on the ES-3 light up?

What audio interface are you using?

The Big red "flower" led Lights up yes, some of the (im guessing they are) output indicators are very very slightly lid up aswell.

Im using a focusrite liquid saffire 56, it has 2 ADAT output (16 channels) ive tried both outs aswell.[/quote]

Have you enabled the ADAT channels in the Saffire Mix Control software?
