Gigaworks S750 audio control pod - headphone jack

Apparently the headphone jack in the audio control pod has stopped working. I plug a working pair of headphones in and get no sound at all. If I fiddle around with wires in the sub, I get some clicking, but no other audio comes through.
The only thing I can think of is a recent storm knocked out power while my headphones were plugged in. Previously I had been using them with just the audio control pod hooked up (recent move), and they were working fine. Anyways just wanted to see if anyone had any ideas.
Thanks!

From my search to this forum, I found some possible causes which I will try of course and will help also people with future problems:

Hi
According to my broken POD (see page 26 to know about my problem), unfortunately I found that the CPU (the 24 pins chip named M34502E4FP) is broken.
In order to help other guys, having similar problems, I explain the problem I found in my POD in order you can verify if your POD can be repaired or not.
The probelm in my POD is in the RESET pin (pin 6) of the CPU. It is SC (internally) while it should be set to 5 V (5V is applied to R9 which is then connected to C and also to the RESET pin of the CPU. C is then connected to the ground). In case the RESET pin is not set to a value about 5 V, all the LEDs in the POD are switched off and you cannot also switch on the system.
Unfortunately this chip cannot be replaced with a new one (you can buy on Internet) because it has also to be programmed (e.g. it contains also EPROM, CMOS controlling the volume for bass, sub etc...).
My problem is now to buy a new POD. Can someone of you sell me a working POD?
So in this case looks like, the cause is the pod. Now looking for new pod...

  • T7700 control pod headphone jack not working

    I recently moved my PC and it seems in the process that the control pod headphone jack has stopped working, I've tried headphones and a speaker cable to connect up to my tv and there's just nothing apart from the pop/click when I plug them in so I'm assuming there's power getting to them.
    I've checked all the cables and they're all in where they should be, this is just a really strange and very annoying problem as I know Creative don't sell replacement pods - although they did used to sell a wireless one with a remote but now I can't even find that for sale on the site.
    Anyone had the same/similar problem and been able to fix it's
    Thanks

    Okay, so when I said all the cables were where they should be they actually kind of weren't, but they were where I've always had them (I had the green and black cables the wrong way round) and I had the speakers - I'm only running a 2.1 setup right now - in the rear ports. I've now corrected it and audio is now coming through my headphone jack once again, really odd how it worked all that time before though.

  • Problem recording from Line-in (Audio Control Pod)... NOT THE TIPICAL OBVIOUS PROBLEM (I think X

    Hi guys!!
    I have a little problem and i have think you could help me...
    I'm trying to connect my electric guitar to my Audigy 2 ZS... My problem is that i connect the AMPLIFIED output of my guitar to Line-In in Audio Control Pod of my T7700 speakers... I Can hear the what i'm playing from my speakers but I can't record anything... I check all the obviuos things, like I have selected Analog Mixer (Line/CD/TAD/...) from Surround Mixer Tab drivers (Rec tab) and in Control Panel of Windows too. What am i doing bad?...
    Thank you for your help!

    May have already been answered, but, hey, what the heck, I've got free time:
    Allow me to clarify. Plug your guitar into the Line-In on your <EM>sound card</EM>. Plugging it into your speakers only uses your speakers as an amp.
    Then, in Creative Recorder select Line-In as the source.
    Speakers, unless they're plugged into the mic jack on your sound card (which they shouldn't be), do not transmit data back to the PC.
    EDIT: Line-in is this thingie (( )) with an arrow pointing inside.Message Edited by ghostrecon09 on 02-22-2005 05:4 AM

  • K9VGM-V with no audio on front headphone jack

    A week ago I put this MoBo in a eMachines Model T6216 that the original MoBo went up in smoke. I just now plugged the headphones into the front panel headphone jack and it doesn't work. When i go to the control panel and look in the sound tab it says that the headphones are not plugged in. Do I have a bad MoBo or is there a problem with my drivers? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    but it doesn't mute the speakers when I plug the headphones into the headphone jack.
    You can manually disable the Rear Panel Jack that your speakers are plugged into via the Realtek HD Audio Manager. Simply klick onto the image that represents the corresponding audio jack.

    Also when I check the audio devices the headphones doesn't show up when they are plugged in.
    As was stated before, AC/97 front panel wiring is not 100% compatible with the Intel HD Audio/Azalia standard.  Disabling Automatic Front Panel Jack Detection of course has the consequence that your headphones are not automatically detected.  Stuff that is not detected do not appear as connected.  However, disabling the detection feature is the only way to get your front panel jack to work in spite of the incompatibility between AC/97 and Azalia specifications.

  • How do I play audio from my headphone jack and internal speakers?

    How do I play audio from my headphone jack and internal speakers at the same time ? I have a splitter for my audio jack so that when i connect up my second monitor I can have it so it also plays audio as well as anything else i have connected into the jack but how do i let the internal speakers emit sound at the same time?

    Hello,
    If you mean the internal speakers in your Mac, you can't play audio through them at the same time you have anything plugged into the headphone jack. When you plug something into the headphone jack, it disconnects the internal speakers.

  • No audio output from headphone jack?

    I have no audio coming out of headphone jack on my 60 GB 'pod. Its songs will play normally through itunes but output from stereo jack is kaput. What gives?

    Now this is an area that I am not familiar with.  I do not know what your audio source is (microphone, DVD player?) and exactly what you are trying to achieve.  You may have to use the Audio MIDI application so look at that to see what it entails.
    I suggest that you start a new discussion listing your specific objectives.  There are fellow users well versed in this area, I am not. 
    Ciao.

  • Audio in through headphone jack, out through USB?

    Hi community, hoping you all can help me solve an audio puzzle.  I currently play iTunes through a USB digital audio convertor connected to powered speakers.  The system works great (especially with the "remote" app to control it).  However, I would like to play my TV's audio through the same USB device.  I have an oldish macbook pro.  I've confirmed that the headphone jack can be used as input and made this selection in system preferences, where I have also selected the DAC as the output.  The TV out is plugged in to the macbook headphone jack and I can see the audio registering on the little meter in the audio input preferences but I cannot get it to pass through to my speakers.  I've reset the PRAM and SMC and I've fiddled with audio MIDI setup to no avail.  Perhaps this just isn't possible but I'd thougth I'd ask for help here before I gave up.
    Oh, and before someone suggests it, the DAC only has USB input, no other options.
    Thanks.

  • MBP audio out from headphone jack is extremely low in volume

    i just sent my macbook pro 13in (mid 2009 model) to the apple store (out of warranty). my problem was that the audio out from the headphone jack was very very low and staticky. the problem arose about 2-3wks ago. i've owned the laptop since june 2009. i've never dropped or damaged it (no water damage, etc)
    my local apple store told me they had to replace logic board which seems extreme for what my problem is. i've read numerous forum posts saying that their computers came back with flickering "kernel panic"
    has anyone else had a similar audio problem with their computer, and if so was it resolved in this manner?
    thanks!

    I think you may be mistaken. the static coming from macbooks audio output port is as old a story as the macbook itself. IMO, epic fail on apple's part. I am debating complaining in a few months when I decide I deserve a better sound quality from a ridiculously overpriced laptop.

  • Strange audio problem w/ headphone jack.

    Since updating to 5.1.1, I have an issue that while I use the headphone jack to connect to the audio input of my car, there is no sound at all from the car speakers. Tried everything and nothing.
    Here is the kicker, I plug in the power and the left side.
    Oddly enough, my Nano (with LCD screen) behaves the same.
    The use of the Apple headphones is not a problem.
    Ideas?
    Thanks,
    Leo

    That did not help. As stated, had this issue with the iPod nano and not with the phone till updated to 5.1.1
    Thanks anyway.
    I plug in a stereo headphone that is not the longer apple one and no sound comes out unless I plug in the charger an then it's only on one side.

  • Left Audio Only From Headphones Jack With External Speakers

    Yes, the balance is set properly under the sound system preferences.
    So here's the problem, I have JBL Encounter speakers connected via the headphone jack and since yesterday only the left speaker produces sound.
    I've plugged my ipod into the JBL speakers and they work fine. I've also used headphones with my computer and again, left audio only.
    I've even switched the right and left satellite speakers and again only left audio is produced... though on the right (side) satellite.
    Any thoughts on how to correct this? The nearest apple store is 2 and 1/2 hours away so I'd prefer not to go if there is another fix.
    My three month phone service is up but I'm still covered under the apple care for a few more months.
    Thanks in advance.

    Sounds as if your headphone jack is either defective or has been damaged by having a cord yanked at some stage, Kanji
    It is either a trip to your nearest AASP or a mailing box from Apple to get it resolved. Applecare will cover it if the problem isn't due to accidental damage (though a cat tripping on the cord can be enough to produce such results and the price could accordingly be substantial as the port is mounted on the logicboard on recent MBPs as I understand it) .
    You might want to try a regular pair of headphones in the socket to make sure the problem also occurs with them, too, though.
    Cheers

  • No audio from MacBook headphone jack

    For all of you wondering why your headphone jack stopped working and start thinking is hardware related, i've got a solution i wanted to post here.
    After the last update i made ,i found out that on system preferences u don't have a headphone output until you plug the earphones, so check that when u plug them the mute checkbox is unchecked since the speakers and headphones volume choices are different from each other, so while in one is working u plug the headphones and then its mute for that one, what makes u think is not working.
    Have fun

    Brand new out of the box, this thing has a faulty headphone out. No sound through headphone, itunes stops, pointer turns into spinning circle. Audio/Midi setup & sound preferences says that it's a "Digital Out" not a "Headphone out". I've been waiting on software updates or whatever, but nothing's happening.
    Does it also have a red light coming out of the hole? I hear sometimes the dual headphone jack/mini-optical out gets stuck in digital optical mode. Something about trying an object in the hole to clear it.

  • No sound from audio speaker or headphone jack

    Hello all i bought a HP Probook 4535s from a friend and im not getting any sound from the speakers or headphone jacks. I have flashed the BIOS to the F.41 and this didin't fix the problem. I also deactivated speakers in the BIO settings and re enabled them and this still didn't fix the job. I also replaced the speakers themselfs. Any ideas would be appriciated Thanks

  • Connecting MACBOOK to home audio system - via 'headphone' jack?

    When setting up the MACBOOK to deliver its audio output to an amplifier/receiver, how is that best done?
    That is, I assume a y-cable (stereo mini plug-to-(2) RCA plugs) might not be the best way, since it's taking a 'headphone' level signal to what are supposed to be 'line level' inputs.
    But are there other better ways of doing this, given that the 'headphone out' is all the MACBOOK has?
    Thanks.

    Just realized that was a full size Toslink and not the mini one on a MacBook. You could either use an adapter or a purpose-built full-size Toslink to mini optical.
