Given all the negative stuff on this forum for what is a free download, I thought I would post something positive.
I run Win 7 64-bit on Asus P6T SE motherboard and had been running the Hauptwerk organ software with the on-board Realtek ALC1200 audio through ASIO4ALL v2.10 Beta 1. I recently invested in a Cantatis Overture sound card (with Envy24) and all of a sudden, ASIO4ALL caused Hauptwerk to stop working once an organ was loaded (i.e. when it started sending audio, the program stopped). Rather than sending a rant message, I decided to investigate further, trying different configurations, rolling back to v2.9 etc.
After looking through various posts, I came across one which linked to a Debug version of ASIO4ALL v2.10. The one I have downloaded is dated 9th Feb 2010 rather than the Beta 1 dated 3rd Dec 2009. The ASIO4ALL64.dll is obviously slightly different (even though identical file size to Beta 1 version) and Hauptwerk no longer crashes.
If people haven't come across the Cantatis Overture sound card, it really is very good. It has just output capability (unbalanced RCA, headphone out, both optical and electrical SPDIF out) - but the focus is obviously on quality rather than packing in multiple inputs and multiple outputs that I didn't need or want. I don't have any link to this company - just a happy customer.
Thank you Herr Tippach for producing something that works with so many different interfaces for which a dedicated ASIO driver does not exist
