THat is what I am asking.  What about the id you are using to connect to 3108 so I can look in the logs.

I read this as the following:

If useEmulator is not set true (and you are using decoderFallBack) thne you are using the built in OP25 Vocoder in Analog_Bridge, not the emulator.

If possible, please post the log output of Analog_Bridge when you are receiving DMR from BM.

Check this in Analog_Bridge.ini

aslAudio = AUDIO_USE_GAIN
agcGain = 1.0
dmrAudio = AUDIO_USE_GAIN
dmrGain = 1.0

If you need to adjust the DMR -> ASL audio, change:
aslAudio = AUDIO_USE_GAIN

agcGain = 1.0
This should be the same level as unity

agcGain = 2.0
This should be twice as loud as unity

agcGain = 0.5
This should be half as loud as unity

I have my Allstar node setup with everything and can hear myself great on hoseline. My problem is that when someone tries to connect to me on DMR I get a kerchunk and no audio. When I monitor hoseline I hear garbled audio. Any ideas what I have done wrong? I tried changing the talk group number and got the same thing.

The garbled audio comes from the DMR user. I have had users from other areas try. (England and 30 miles away). The settings you had me look at are the same as advised. I adjusted the gain to .2 Is it possible for you to put my talkgroup in your code plug and try it? My talk group is 310286.

I read this as the following:
"can hear myself great on hoseline" This means to me ASL -> DMR is working fine. Encode is working.
"My problem is that when someone tries to connect to me on DMR I get a kerchunk and no audio." May be audio level of DMR -> ASL . May be a decode problem.
"When I monitor hoseline I hear garbled audio." Who is transmitting (ASL or DMR) when you hear garbled audio on hoseline?

Sounds like your Audio is TOOOO HOT...

agcGain is MINUS five
dmrGain is aero point two
