I recently got this board and the only thing i don't care for is there is a 1 second delay at the headphones jack every channel trip. I cannot for the life of me figure out why it is occurring.
Can someone help? luckily The LR has zero latency or i would be in big trouble as i have some shows coming up. Another thing i corrected was the ground for the power chord generates some serious crackling noises and you can here noise while scrolling through the cannel strips via iPad. I corrected this with a ground removal socket. Any help would be much appreciated. I love what this board can do.

That was exactly what it was! thank you very much!!!!!!! I can also see the benefit of a delayed signal if you are directly next to the mains, you need a delay in transmission to properly isolate the track!!!. Never had a board that did this. cool stuff!

Totally whack that show, start from scratch.......   with just a mic on one input...

The only delay I have seen like that is when you set an output for a delay (for time delay for say, the back of a room), but never a second... Hell, will it even allow you to set that to a second?

Where are you geographically?    If you are near me, I'll happily give it a look - Upstate, SC.

Also...   One of us could share a show with you I guess...   it would be our settings...

thanks for the offer! looks like you are 10 hours away though. I usually don't use the solo when running sound unless signal setting needs to done muted.
Ampli hit the nail on the head! Thanks again Ampli!!!!! I also now see the benefit in delaying the signal so it can be isolated if you are right next to the mains or a guitarist is noodling too loud, because we all know guitarist love to crank their stage volume lol

I installed 4.6.1 today and expected to be prompted for a firmware update but I was not. Is there a way to check if a firmware update is needed?

The lack of a firmware update kinda put a scare in me.  But my DL1608 worked great.  So I called Mackie Support number and they said it was a minor update for the DL1608 so no firmware update needed.  I'm still going to put our PA through the paces since we are using a production company for the next show.  We will use our Mackie for the next four shows after that.

What does Auto View do if anything on the DL1608? When I loaded a show it selected it it just showed VCA sliders. I don't see a description in the manual and it doesn't show AUTO in the pictures. I'm guessing it hasn't been updated yet.

Hi TRShot,

1) Tap ALL to select all faders.

2) On the LR Master layer, bring up faders 1, 3, 4, 5 and 16, a little or a lot, doesn't matter.
    Pull all other faders COMPLETELY down.

3) Now tap AUTO.

Or simply bring up an existing show and tap AUTO.

You will only see faders that are up.

AUTO works with all layers.

For me, it is a GREAT feature!

Good health,  Weogo
