Am I losing it or is something changing my text? It probably doesn't matter anyway, but it was Sweetwater's website that offered those suggestions. I am 64, and you know what they say about old men. 64 and getting older but still want to rock, Steve Smith

I discovered this only now, but the *default* auto-censor in the forum software would elect to replace "twat" with "thingy". So this is why you seemed unable to post "Sweetwater's".

a few years ago someone called djperes released some .msi file that claimed to fix this issue... some have that file?

I don't know if by audio application you also mean soft synth. In my tower computer with a 4 core Phenom II running XP64 with Realtek Audio, I can start up to six soft synths and have them sound simultaneously with multiple ASIO4All running in the task bar. I tried more but I get the hardware not available error, so I guess sequenced compositions for eight Minimoogs might be unattainable. In my intel i7 4(8) core laptop running Win7 x64 with Nvidia audio and Realtek audio, only one instance of ASIO4All starts and subsequent synths show device not available. Shouldn't my more advanced laptop be able to run even more soft synths at once? What gives? I'm going to try to install the latest sound drivers in the laptop to see if that makes any difference but I haven't had any problems until now.

I upgraded the laptop to ASIO4All 2.11 beta 2, latest Realtek driver from Toshiba, and system driver, and video driver while I was at it. The first synth opens as usual and plays. The second synth now opens but hesitates inaccessible for many seconds while ASIO4All does something. Then a new ASIO4All icon appears in the task bar and it says that it is using such and such buffering, but the second synth is still silent, even though selecting keys shows that CPU is being used. The first synth continues to be able to make noise. Also, other soft synths set to MME Windows audio also are mute if opened after the first synth if it's running ASIO4All.

Never mind. It doesn't matter in Win7 as far as sequencing is concerned. Playing stand-alone instruments is pretty much tits up, though. If only VSTs were available for Linux.

If you use 32bit ASIO host, you can use the following problem ASIO Multiclient driver. Eash ASIO host program is set to use ASIO Multiclient Driver as ASIO In/Out. And set the ASIO Mutliclient Driver use ASIO4ALL as it's default driver. vidance.com/asiomulti/asiomulti.html

truth is this problem is only for vista. in xp i have not this problem. Chances are you have a Realtek High Definition Audio onboard thingy and the reason why it appears to work in XP is that Realtek have integrated some dodgy software mixing into their miniport for Win XP - at the price of horrible latency and more issues. See the Realtek thread for that matter! Solution is to roll back the Realtek driver to a known "good" state and once this is done, it'll be "single client" as a side effect. Under Vista they cannot pull these tricks, because here the driver is a WaveRT miniport, where WaveRT is a zero copy approach. Under Vista, all the crap they put into their XP WaveCyclic miniport has been moved into the user mode audio engine and is completely bypassed by ASIO4ALL. That was the information I was searching for, thanks. What kind of specification is important for that matter when buying a soundcard to solve this? cheers spoutnik

Deleting this useless POS driver and your horrible, nondescript excuse for a manual and getting on with my life now. After killing all system sounds on my computer, unplugging and replugging in guitar cable and restarting amplitude a half dozen times I have managed to accomplish a minor miracle of getting it to show an input from ASIO. So what's my problem you ask?
No output whatsoever through any of my three different sound devices/cards. Then add on the fact that your support staff and moderators are the most arrogant pricks on the planet who assume that if anyone has an issue with their software...they're just not doing it right...which pretty much makes no one want to ask you a question...ever. Guess what guys, you're not God's gift to software engineering and your code is buggy as hell. Get over it.
I'm going to proceed to report this software as an epic failure on every one of the 20 forums that mentioned this website as an option then I'm going to find some better drivers and get on with my life. Hopefully I will end up saving some people a few hours of their short lives.

I have ableton and my browser open ableton's outputing through asio, I can only listen to one of the two feeds at a time. I have to close them both and reopen the one i want to listen to first. i changed ableton to direct because i was tired of dealing with this.

if you read that then you should know, they don't care. That attitude is enough for me to know they are not going to do anything. It should be a simple fix, but not going to happen. And rather than talk with the end user, who they think deserve ridicule, they throw ignorant statements around and thats it, end of. It's a shame so many paid applications require asio audio to work properly. Sad.. that these guys just dont care. if you read the first post then you should know, it's not a 'simple fix'. It's not even a bug. It's how it works. That attitude is enough for me to know they has a sense of humour. And rather than talk with a dozen who haven't read the first post in this thread that answers their question, they throw one succinct, appropriate and quite funny statement around after someone finally says something too entertaining to ignore and thats it, end of. It's a shame so many people don't bother to read before they post. Sad... that these guys is mostly just one guy who is voluntarily developing a software that lets people get low-latency audio interface with their existing hardware for free.
