How are you syncing? The optical is just for Digital I/O..........

Been trying to sync ProTools LE 5.1.1 Win 98SE (Digi001) to Adat via
optical
and have been getting clicks and pops (sync noise?). I've tried soooo
many
things my brain hurts. I've been all through the manuals and no luck. I
know we had this talking to a O1V board thru Adat some time ago so I know
it
can be done. Also we would like to lock the transports together and the
PT
manual is VERY confusing. We have a BRC and no manual.
Could someone please offer up the magic answer?
Please excuse our ignorance
TIA

Under "hardware" un the pulldown menu which I think it on the menu bar as
"Set ups" set the clock source to "optical."

Or leav it on Internal, turn off the BRC and go to the face of the ADATs
and set them to external clock witht the correct sample rate. This will
probably cuase some ADAT tpe plackback problems, so it's robably not you
best option unless you are using ADATs as converters to hit an analog
board.

For proper syncing I think you need a Didi Universal Slave Driver for a
SMPTE source, but I don't know much about LE systems. Maybe you have a
SMPTE source.

You may be able to transfer from ADAT to PT without SMPTE, but you won't
beable to get back to the ADAT ins sycn without it.
