After updating - After updating, verify the following settings;
- Audio Interface Mode - press and hold the right hand encoder to verify that Symphony I/O is set to the desired audio interface mode.
- If using the Symphony 64 card, verify that the Symphony Source setting (found in the Maestro 2 > System Setup tab and Audio MIDI Setup) is set to the appropriate Symphony 64 Port setting:
! ! If interfaces are connected only to Port 1, set Source to Port 1: 32ch. ! ! If interfaces are connected to both Ports 1-2, set Source to Port 1-2: 64ch.
- Check that Output settings such as Speaker setting and level and headphone level and mute are set as expected.
