thanks
but i want to know
why i can`t plug rca from breakout box to BX5AS directly
why i want to mixer between them ?No one’s saying you can’t. This is just how most people are set up. I suggested bypassing the mixer (which I see now that you aren’t using) and going straight from the rca analog outs to the ins of the BX5A’s (which yes, to answer your question, are analog).
-
Are you running this through a mixer? Try rerouting the rca outs of your breakout box straight into the bx5as. If you get sound, check the cabling and setup of the mixer.
Are you sure your speakers are working? Come off the built-in output of the mac straight into your speakers and see if they work.
As always, double-check your settings and make sure that the audio is being routed to the kona.

Just saw your last post.
Yes. Those speakers are fine. You should run the rca analog outs of the BOB to the channel ins of a mixer, and the out of the mixer to your BX5As.

I second trashing old render files – our clients see this message most often when render files become corrupt. You may even need to trash the render files in the sequence giving you this message and re-render. No one wants to hear this, but it works a good percentage of the time. Narrow down the crash to a particular sequence and give it a shot.
Another possibility that we’ve seen is a piece of corrupt media tripping up this error. Best way to narrow that down is to drag the offending sequence into a new project, new sequence, break it in half. If you render and you don’t get an error message, the bad media is in the other half. If you do, divide it in half again, render, and so on, until you find the piece of media causing the error.
This is one of those FCP messages that is caused by a lot of different problems, and it isn’t usually the RAM or disk space that’s the actual culprit.

Nice. Gotta love an ejectable esata card. Glad you found a process that works for you.

Standard operating procedure for all external storage (other than firewire, of course) is this.
Power up: Boot up the storage, let the disks spin up, THEN boot the machine.
Power down: Power down the machine first (this unmounts the volume properly from the system), and then power down the storage. This goes for all sata, sas, fibre, SAN storage, etc. Any other combination will be met with intermittent success. Don’t power down storage while the host is running and expect it to remount when you power it back on without a shutdown.
