so i just got a new cpu with 3gb ram and a amd qaud 9500 processor dip...and i have a us122 and record in adobe 1.5....butttttttttttttttttttttttttt t
when i record it it recordinjg off and the wave isnt lining up with the cursor...i tried turning the wdm drivers off and no succes..under my soundcard latency it says 256-512-1024 and 2048...have it on 2048 but i tried them alll and none work...i tried asio for all but im not sure of wat to putt he settings on please help!

Mar 07, 2008 11:10 am I've used the ASIO drivers that came with the US122 (the old version 122, not the new one).
I think I have buffer at 256, and haven't have any noticeable trouble.
In my software, often the play cursor line isn't exactly where the music is playing. I don't worry about it, and only play against what I hear in headphones, and it's worked quite well.
I've never used asio4all on my lappy-us122. maybe i should give it a whirl, to see how it works.

Mar 07, 2008 11:17 am I think Audition 1.5 has the "automatically correct drift" setting under options on the multitrack tab, something to check at least. PC should definitely be up to the task.
Mar 07, 2008 08:10 pm yea i triewd that correct drift n it didnt work...i disabled the wdm drivers and now its recording perfect,but dont they make the qaulity better? i unno

Mar 08, 2008 07:37 am I think the WDM / ASIO / MME issues is just the way the software talks to the hardware, like speaking in french, instead of german.
Sometimes WDM is better, sometimes worse. Sometimes ASIO is better, sometimes worse.
MME is always worse, I think, in regards to latency. That's why WDM was created, to greatly improve the latency, for recording applications.

Mar 08, 2008 01:06 pm I have a US-144 and had to play around for a while to get everything the way I wanted it. I ended up with ASIO4ALL working for me, but that was only after downloading the latest drivers and firmware, which helped out greatly.
Like PJ, I don't really know how the drivers technically work, but it seems to me that it kind of depends on the computer- it's almost as though each computer has it's own personality so to speak. If it's working now cassius, then I'd stick by the old adage, "if it aint broke, don't fix it."
Think of it like this- ASIO isn't any higher quality than WDM, it's just a different delivery mechanism.
