Roland RE-201-no readouts at all on the head displays

[Newtown]

Hi,
does anybody else have no readouts at all on the tape head time displays?
The manual says it should dispay the delay times of the three tape heads. But mine doesn´t show anything at all. I tried it in Nuendo 3 and Wavelab 5.
(Maybe I gotta check the fuses of my RE-201) :|

hmm, am I really the only one who ain´t see any digits in the delay time readouts?

Do you even get the 4 little green dashes?

I don't see them either.

maybe select a position like 1-2-3 instead of reverb only (6 O'Clock). Then increase the delay time. If you still don't see anything then I have no clue what it could be.

\"I was able to duplicate the problem. I had my color setting at 16 bit in Display Properties. When I changed to 32 bit, the displays were fine\"

this the answer of the UA's PC support people about this, because i have this problem too

i use ableton live5

 

[Newtown]

thankyou, the 32 bit trick was the solution. But then I´m only able to watch my CRT´s at 75Hz which is a no no. Please UA fix this. I´ve never had any plug which need 32bit grafics to fully show all controls and displays!

But then I´m only able to watch my CRT´s at 75Hz which is a no no.

Just curious but why is this a no no?

 

[Newtown]

because I can see those 75Hz flimmering like mad, and if you sit behind 3 21inch CRTs 8 hours a day your eyes will thank you if you at least work at 85Hz or higher.

 

[RichR]

Funny because 75Hz always did it for me on my previous 21\" CRT. Maybe they react differently.
Oh well...

 

[Newtown]

I think it´s more personal responsibility I know a lot of ppl working @ 75hz or evebn 60hz on CRT´s ! But personally I just can´t work on frame rates lower than 85, makes me mad.

edit: I should have written sensibility instead of responsibility. Shame on me, but please understand I´m not a native englich speaking person :wink:
