Are you sure that the BR-80's line/phones output isn't defect? Unlikely that all Mackie line ins are defect. I can't believe that the output of a Roland device doesn't work with the input of a Mackie mixer. You can use the BR-80 with headphones? It's loud or silent when connecting headphones with how much ohm? I suspect that the BR-80 is broken. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
