Troubleshooting Tips 

No sound on speakers or headphones  

ƒ

 

Check that the speakers are connected to SRM’s line output or 5.1 speaker output. See 
the Control Panel Speakers Tab section for details. 

ƒ

 

Check that the speakers are powered on.  

ƒ

 

Be sure you’re not using passive speakers that require an amplifier. The SRM outputs 
can only drive powered speakers, not passive speakers. 

ƒ

 

If the speakers have a volume control or mute button, check that they are properly set. 

ƒ

 

Make sure the speakers are operating properly. To verify this, connect them to another 
audio source, such as an MP3 player or CD player.  

If none of these solve the problem, check the following: 

ƒ

 

The 

Master Volume 

and 

Speaker Volumes

 (to the right of the Master Volume) in the 

Speaker Tab 

control the output levels

.

 The speaker volumes should be set to about 

75% towards the right. This can be easily done by pressing the 

Reset

 button at the 

bottom of the volume section.

 

ƒ

 

In Windows 2000/XP, the 

Wave

 volume in the 

Mixer Tab 

controls the digital audio 

playback level (e.g. music played with Media Player or the sound of a DVD

.)

  

ƒ

 

The position of the speaker icons in the 

Speaker Positions

 section in the 

Effects Tab 

to the right of the Master Volume (if it’s 

Enabled

).  

ƒ

 

The 

Mute

 buttons under the Master Volume and Wave Volume will turn off the 

volumes when enabled. If the SRM status light is RED, it indicates that the Master 
Volume mute is active. Turn this off either by pressing the SRM volume/mute control, 
or by clicking the mute button under the Master Volume slider in the Control Panel 
Speakers Tab.
