Stupid Asio....

Posted on

Member Since: Dec 24, 2009

Im using ASIO4ALL, and cant get the outputs to work, I have two monitors plugged in via RCA cables to a UCA200, and if I'm not using Asio, I can get sound through the monitors fine, but when I switch to Asio, nada.

When I open the Asio window from the toolbar, and hover over the output of my USB audio CODEC, it tells me:

PIN
Status: Unavailable!

->In use by another application?
->MS GS Wavetable Synth Enabled?

I have checked both things that it told me to, and still nothing. Any help appreciated.

The device driver that came with your device should have WDM drivers as well.

www.behringer.com/EN/Supp...-Downloads.aspx I think is for yours.

You shouldn't need ASIO4ALL, doesn't your device come with support for ASIO and WDM? If you installed the drivers from the driver disk that I assume came with it, you should have both options within your application.

Indeed, you should just use the ASIO driver provided by the manufacturer.

There was no driver disk with it unfortunately, I downloaded drivers from Behringer, but I don't think they were ASIO, I was recommended ASIO4ALL by someone... can't remember who at all. But will definitely try those

I vaguely remember somebody recommending ASIO4ALL a while back, and in a lot of cases it's a good recommendation, but they are meant for folks that don't have manufacturer ASIO drivers. The packages I saw at Behringer.com did have ASIO and WDM...

Is there any reason you are avoiding WDM? I have seen some devices do better with WDM, some better with ASIO...depends on the programmers.

I have the answer cause I had the same error messages setting up my interface (I'm in Windows 7 but it shouldn't matter the version you're using). Go to the sound control panel in Windows and disable Window Sounds - I had to set the sounds to "NONE" in the Sound Themes. Reboot and try it. It seems Windows hijacks the soundcard and when set to none it releases it to ASIO4ALL. Now I'm running fine. Try it.

I would reccomend asio4all for plenty of things, but beings behringer makes and asio driver for that interface I would think that to be the best case scenario. Alas, I don't own one so...
