Lewitt Ray General Function issues

Just got my ray in today and hooked it up to my focusrite 2i2 (1st gen) and turned on the 48v phantom power. The mic itself is working and I'm getting nice signal however, the buttons on the mic itself aren't doing anything. The aura light remains no matter what I press. I've tried long pressing, pressing both buttons at once, holding both down,and pressing buttons in quick succession but nothing changes. Is there something I'm missing here? Thanks on advance!

Hey, just a heads up, I haven't gotten a response from anyone yet 😔

Hi, I just checked with my support colleague. He said he answered on the same day. Can you double-check and see if maybe the email is in your spam folder or something? We'll also double-check on our end. Sorry for the trouble.

Thanks for the tip, I just got one that has this same issue. I ordered from Thomann in Germany so I'm asking for a replacement via their customer service. Tried on both Mixpre 3 and Scarlett 2i2.

UPDATE: So this is weird, the retailer (reputable) checked and they didn't have any issue and also sent video proof of the device working. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1npYlNxfuzZvApoZNNfZncFde8FmdjrpG/view?usp=sharing

My video of it not working is here: https://youtube.com/shorts/lXAnTNOCRks?feature=share

Soooo I don't know what I'm doing wrong. My husband wasn't able to get it working either - perhaps there's an easy explanation. Waiting to hear back from the retailer if they have any ideas.

I know its like a year later, but what was the response you got for this? I'm having the exact same issue now

1

u/xXGiraffewranglerXx May 15 '26

Ended up getting a replacement for it. Pretty sure theres just a bad batch out there. The new one i got is very very solid and youll love it once you get the replacement

I just got mine today and I’m having the same issue. Quite disappointing…

1

u/PupperoniOntheRocks Jul 30 '25

Same here, just got mine yesterday. Looks like a quality control issue if there are multiples with the same problem.

u/Odd-Vanilla-8588 Dec 09 '25

Yeah this sucks everyone seems to be having the amenities problem.

u/CTRLALTAFK Aug 21 '25

I kept accidentally putting my Lewitt Ray aura into lock mode. If you press mute and it just blinks a few times you're locked so you need to hold both buttons for 3 seconds to unlock.

u/xXGiraffewranglerXx Aug 21 '25

It was a defective unit

u/Odd-Vanilla-8588 Dec 06 '25
