Yes. I have re-installed it & re-booted just to make sure.

The only driver option that allows use of the R8 is the MME 32bit setting. In the ASIO setting the Playback TM has no options & the Record TM opens a long empty menu. The other driver options, when applied show the R8 & Realtek Speakers as missing. With the MME 32bit option the 'buffers in queue' size is set to 4, the buffer size is at Fast (10.0msec 441 samples), & the effective latency at 44khz/stereo is 30.0 msec. Also, on the Zoom R8 screen, beside the USB symbol at the top right is the number 96.0. The only option on this screen that I can change is to toggle between REC, SOLO & MUTE, but I'm not sure what these settings are for. Thanks for your assistance David.

I am interfaced to CW with a Zoom R8. When attempting to record, the CW metronome plays through the laptop & obviously is not useable as I am using a microphone to record. I have the Playback Timing Master set to the Realtek Digital Output of the laptop, because if I set this to the Line Zoom R8 I get a very bad latency with the metronome in realtime (though it does play through headphones plugged into the Zoom R8), during recording & also of track playback in CW. I can have any setting for the track output, all work fine (except if the driver output is set to the Zoom R8). The Recording Time Master I have set to the Zoom R8. Is there something I am overlooking?

I am not using an alternative interface (onboard sound card), so I set the Driver mode as you suggested, but it made no difference, but it works with MME 32bit. From what I've been reading I think it would be better to use the R8 as a permanent interface with CW, so I'll go ahead & set it up. Thanks for your time & assistance.

Thanks David. This is valuable info for sure, & I will save it for later use. But I haven't yet set up the R8 as an interface. I thought I would be able to save the audio track from the SD card which I have slotted into my laptop, so I have imported it into Cakewalk from that source. I will need to learn an efficient workflow for working between the R8 & DAW. If you have any tips I am appreciative. Many thanks.

I am a total beginner. I have started a new project in Basic mode & imported a wav audio file (I am recording using a Zoom R8. The audio file has been recorded at 24bit 44.1hz). I play the track that the audio file has been assigned to (track 1) & the visual representation of the track moves along the waveform, but there is no audio playback. I don't know what info I need to supply to help remedy this.
