Hi everyone,
I have just started using a POD HD as an audio interface and have a minor but annoying problem.
My setup is. Guitar ---- Amp ---- Rack mounted cab sim (torpedo Live) ---- Pod HD via SPDIF ---- Macbook via USB. I also have the monitors connected to the unbalanced outputs on the Pod.
The problem I have in the simplest terms is I have lost the ability to control volume using my macbook. Where previously when I was using a MOTU Track16 audio interface I could hit the volume up / down and control the overall master output volume for things like logic, iTunes and quicktime player, I now hit the volume buttons and nothing happens forcing me to use the individual volume controls in iTunes or Logic (or what ever other program I am using. Or I need to use the master volume on the pod to control the overall volume.
Is there a way to connect my mac volume control so it works as it did previously? Ideally I want to be able to set the master volume on the POD to a maximum and then tweak as required using the macbook's volume control.
Any assistance would be much appreciated. The only other option I am considering is running the POD back into my Track16 audio interface so I can control volume which isn't ideal as I don't want to risk latency by running it through unnecessary hardware.
Cheers,
John
