Subject:E-MU ASIO Solution!

I just read in another forum a solution to the problem with the E-MU ASIO drivers where there is no sound on opening new projects.

All you need to do is create a new ASIO OUT 1/2 in the PatchMix DSP and then assign it as the audio device in ACID 6.

Hey Presto! Instant sound when opening any project.

Yep, this tends to make ASIO on the EMU hardware work.

There are also a lot of nice templates for Patchmix that will set up your ASIO very nicely.

Oddly enough, would you believe, this is actually covered in the EMU help and manuals?!?

I just got the Emulator X w/ 1212M I/o.

Would you mind telling me how to set up patchmix up to do this? When I installed all the software the default in patchmix has asio out set to 31/32, somehow i manage to hear sound in all my apps, so i left it alone. I don't anticipate on luck lasting me through everything so I'd like to be prepared.

If any of you would be kind enough to help a newbie out and take me through the basics of patchmix and how it actually works, I'd be greatful.

Dave,

Double-click on PatchMix icon, right-click on any strip caption and select append new strip then ok. It creates ASIO OUT 1/2.

Acid Preferences/Audio device must be re-directed to ASIO OUT 1/2.

Excellent; thanks a bunch. What a nice sounding card, I really can't get over how raw and crisp the sound is coming out of this card. I may get the Audio Dock M for the mic pre's.

I agree the card sounds great! Keep us informed how the Emu ASIO driver works out for you. I found it terribly unstable. Keep ASIO4All in mind if you have major issues.

Cheers,

Randy

So far, the driver is working fine. No issues. I hover around the 9ms to 11ms latency setting. (9ms was the best I could get with the 002r when I had it) I had 5MS with the wavecenter pci which I no longer have a use for because i don't use outboard mixing gear anymore (yamaha 01v)

My main application for remixing is reason 3 and this driveris working great with the E-mu 1.82 driver.

No problems here whatsoever.

I was able to hear sound but after I recorded I couldn't hear sound anymore. Not even on playback. I only heard the metronome; emulator x went dead after the first instance of recording.

I had it set to Asio out 1/2

in options/Prefs Audio

Please advise

As I said before, the Emu ASIO driver is no good. ASIO4All is your friend.

Is Emulator X actually usable with acid Pro 6? It crashes on me in cubase sx. And it does weird things in Acid Pro 6 which is so not a DAW. Is Asio4all the solution? How does it work with patchmix?
I'm not diggin acid pro 6 as a daw and i'm not diggin emulator x as a sampler.

Asio4all did not fix my problem.

Cannot rely on Acid for this vsti, it simply does not work (i also tried it in acid pro 5 and it did not work)

After 5 mins the connection between emulator x and acid are severed.
