Subject:ACID Pro 7 still open in processes

Hello all. I been having this problem for a while now with the last few versions of Acid. Just been working around it, but would LOVE to find an actual solution. It seems that when I close up Acid its still hanging the processes in windows. If I move on to another session even that one would hang. Its possible to have 4-5 sessions hanging during one recording session (working on multiple songs)unless I go to Task Manager and click to shut down each instance. (or do a complete computer restart, which is not always the best when people are in) Any ideas why its not closing down in the backgound?

I have heard about some problems with Acid and MAudio products. I am using a Delta 44 soundcard and an MAudio Axiom keyboard controller. Dont know if this is in any way related.

I look forward to figuring this out with your help.

If I remember correctly, this usually happens because ACID cannot close the audio interface. Make sure that you are using the latest ASIO audio drivers for your card. I have no problems at all with my M-Audio Firewire 410 under Windows 7 64-bit.

We have seen this problem with m-audio MIDI io.

The problem only occurs with specific m- audio hardware and drivers.

What we do know is that the problem occurred after a driver update by m-audio. Previous drivers did not have the problem.

Do you have the lastest update of ACID installed?

ACID Pro 7.0e has a fix for some versions of drivers from m-audio.

I stand corrected. I just noticed that ACID Pro 7.0e is hanging around in the processes after I have closed ACID. I don't think that was happening before but it is now. :(

I guess it is an M-Audio problem. They have gone down hill big time since Avid bought them.
