New Version 5.3.3b2 — February 14, 2003

Introduction

The Digidesign ASIO Driver is a multichannel, multimedia sound driver that allows third-party audio programs which support the ASIO standard to record and play back through the following systems on Windows XP Professional or Home:

Pro Tools|HD with Pro Tools TDM 5.3.3
Pro Tools|24 MIX with Pro Tools TDM 5.3.1
Pro Tools|24 with Pro Tools TDM 5.3.1
Digi 002 with Pro Tools LE 5.3.2
Digi 001 with Pro Tools LE 5.3.1
Mbox with Pro Tools LE 5.3.3 *
ToolBox & AudioMedia III with Pro Tools LE 5.3.1
* The version on this page is newer than the one included with the Pro Tools LE 5.3.3 CD and download. All other systems did not include the ASIO driver on the Pro Tools CD or downloads.

The ASIO Driver can also be used as a stand-alone driver (without Pro Tools software installed), with Pro Tools|HD, Pro Tools|24 MIX, Pro Tools|24, Digi 001, and AudioMedia III systems. Digi 002 and Mbox can only use the ASIO Driver if Pro Tools software is installed. For more information, see "Installing the ASIO Driver" below and in the included ASIO Driver Beta2 Read Me.

Full-duplex recording and playback of 24- and 16-bit audio are supported at sample rates supported by the hardware and ASIO program used.

Funny that they didn't list Sonar 2.2. ;) I'm assuming that if the asio drivers work in acid 4.0 then it should work just fine in Vegas 4? Cool.

I noticed a problem if you have a PT 5.3.1 TDM system.
I uninstalled the old drivers beta 1 and went to install the beta 2 drivers and it gave me an error that my Pro-Tools was out dated and I need to update to 5.3.1 or higher well I'm at 5.3.1, I uninstalled PT and installed the beta 2 drivers and re-installed PT 5.3.1 and all is well. PTLE, 001 or Toolbox doesn't have this problem.

Just a heads up

I tested an 18 track 44.1/16bit (256 samples) V4 session with the old beta 1 drivers with TDM hardware, it played fine.
