 Topic: SynchroLock can't be locked

So are you saying that you tried the card on Internal and the Symphony locked to it?

If Internal is OK, but I just want to use the External.

If you put the 1604 cable on Port B, can yous end wordclock OUT? For instance, keep the AES16e on Internal, and take the wordclock signal from Port B and connect it to the Symphony wordclock input. Does that work?

I changed the TASCAM and LYNX HILO word clock OUT , but problem still.

I changed the TASCAM word clock, but problem still. I also changed 3 kinds(different brand) of the BNC cable, but problem still. I also changed the 1604 cable, the same problem. So that which kind of cable you may recommed me to try again?

It may be as simple as a bad cable (or the cable isn't tightened into the connector all the way) or as complex as a fault in the hardware. Double-check all your connections and try swapping cables.
Do you have any way to check the word clock output of the Apogee independent of the AES16e? It could be that the word clock output on the Apogee has a hardware problem.

Yes, I using the BNC connector for the CBL-AES1604 cable that is plugged into PORT A on the AES16e.Anyway, I just wonder want to use the External, why can't use?

Sorry, but you didn't answer my question. Are you using the BNC connector for the CBL-AES1604 cable that is plugged into PORT A on the AES16e?
If it is working when using Digital In 1, then why do you need to change it to External? Once SynchroLock has engaged, they work the same.

I find the same question in the form, the link is: http://www.lynxstudio.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3194 I did the same. Why he could finally locked? But I couldn't.

I thought you had an Aurora and the Apogee.
What cable are you using to connect the AES16e to the Apogee? If it is the CBL-AES1604 then you would need two of them to get all 16-channels and the CLOCK IN and CLOCK OUT connectors. The cable plugged into the first port (PORT A) is the one with the word clock INPUT on it.
There really is no difference between using the word clock input and clocking from the digital input. If the digital input works, then just stick with using the digital input.
We do recommend having the AES16e clocked Internally. The reason for this is simple. When the AES16e is clocked internally your DAW software is the master of what sample rate is selected. If you clock externally or from the digital input, then the external device is the clock master and you must manually select the sample rate to match the external rate in your DAW.

What's more, I wanna to know if the AES16e's gen1( PCIE1.0) or gen2(PCIE2.0)?Also, which slot would better to the AES16e,? Northbridge X16 slot(nearest to the CPU), or Southbridge X4 black slot?

So that means the AES16e just can be clocked 2 ways？ I don't use the AURORA, I just use the Apogee Symphony I/O as the main clock. I wanna that the 1 or 2 which would get the less distortion then? 1.choose "Digital In 1", Synchrolock locked 2.choose "External", Synchrolock unlocked

I think you might have misunderstood how things are to be clocked.
The AES16e MUST only be clocked either Internally (INTERNAL) or from the digital input (DIGITAL IN 1).
When the AES16e is clocked Internally the Aurora MUST be clocked to AES A.
If you wish to clock from the Apogee product, you must connect the word clock output of the Apogee to the word clock input of the Aurora. Next you must set the AURORA to clock to EXT by pressing the front panel SYNC SOURCE button until it shows EXT. The AES16e must then be clocked by Digital In 1 (from the Aurora).
Please try this then let us know how it is working.

I think you misunderstood. My question was what sample rate you are at when the sync problem occurs. The reason I ask is that there are two different crystal oscillators, one at 44.1 and one at 48. If the behavior happens at one rate and not the other, it could point to a failure of one of the crystals.

Thank you, but I tried what you said, still can't be locked.Anymore problem may cause this?

What sample rate are you attempting to lock to? If it is 44,.1k, try with 48k, and vice versa.
