    Default Kasina issue...

    My unit seems to be stuck on AS and will not stay in Spectrastrobe mode. It was working fine with Cymatics, then stopped abruptly. I definitely have the reference tone from the Cymatics plugin sending signal. Do I need to send the unit in for service?

    Have you tried it with any of the factory SS tracks?

    It seems to be just when hooked to the USB for live playing. The tracks on the device seem fine.

    I think the problem was that I had multiple complex envelopes driving animation. Seems to have cleared up now without them. Guess I got too ambitious!

    If the total sum of the RGB tracks exceeds a 1:4 ratio to the reference track, it will drop out of SS and go into AS mode. If you are doing a complex session mixing in colors and and effects, you will have to amplify the reference tone from the Cymatic plugin. You can do this with Reaper, or you can create your own reference tone from scratch using a tone generator. Using the lowest reference tone level possible increases the brightness of the LED's. Sometimes if the Kasina drops out of SS mode, it takes a strong reference signal to kick it back in. It is a good practice to start your sessions with a second or two of reference tone only to switch the Kasina into SS mode. Helps eliminate the "pop" of light you get when you start a session.


    To maintain compatibility with older decoding systems (AS), the relation between the reference signal level and RGB color signal levels in audio channel is 1:4. It means that max. signal level of Color Channels (R, G, B) is 4 times the reference signal level.
