I had a very strange problem last night with a DTS 6AD. I connected to the unit with the software and it saw the processor. I could change formats via the computer and raise and lower the master fader via computer. I could hear the level change outside. When I either changed the individual output level sliders or changed ANY EQ slider for ANY channel via computer, the computer said there was a change but there was none in the theater. Controls from DTS front panel did work.

I believe that you have to upload the settings each change made

You mean hit upload every time a change is made? That seems kind of weird.

Steve, the 6D does not use setup software, it does use a setup disc to set the output levels. I believe the ISO image of that disc is in the warehouse here on F-T. Yep, right here:
DS3 setup disc

DataSat can also provide discs on request I believe.

The 6AD setup software is here also: 6AD Setup
