Distortion with analog-source

Post by Popheadpoepie »

When recording on the analog source of my Pulsar2 connected on a mixer input the left out distorts while the right out is clean.Is there something broken on my Pulsar2-card? :(

A bit more info might be in order. Also can you post a screenshot of your project?

The first thing to determine is whether it's the input or the output. If you have a sound file you know to be clean play that - does the left channel distort? If not then at least you know the problem lies at the input stage. If it does distort at this stage try swapping the left and right channels (easily done in the Scope window) and see if the distortion moves with it. If it's still on the left then there may be a problem with your left output. If no distortion occurs then we can spend a bit of time determining what is happening on the input side of things.
