Jackson Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 I've been trying to setup a Guitar to USB cable for cakewalk, as I am in college and don't really have the option to bring an amplifier with me. Every time I launch a new project in Cakewalk, it freezes up and crashes after a couple seconds. Whenever I launch cakewalk it will also create audio rendering errors when I watch YouTube at the same time. Usually I'll find a tutorial on how to set one of these Guitar to USB cables on YouTube, but it'll be windows 10 instead of windows 11, and their drivers will show up in preferences completely different. As you can tell I've had zero luck on trying to figure this out, so if you can lend a hand, that'd be awesome. Below are photos of my audio driver settings, hopefully that helps.

Jorge Arias Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 (edited) Uninstall the asio4ALL drivers and delete all traces of them. Select WASAPI Shared as drivers. Bakers recommend that. ASIOALL4 IS NOT A TRUE ASIO DRIVER. It has already been discussed and reported here on the forum several times. First you can try the Native ASIO driver of your board although I don't think it works with REALTEK Edited September 18, 2023 by Jorge Tata Arias Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be able to enter my projects, but when I record it freezes for several minutes before deciding to work. Even then, there's no feedback, or evidence that my guitar is even doing anything. Don't assume that I didn't check the forum earlier, lol. It's hard to know what to believe when there's several YouTube videos that suggest ASIO is the only driver capable of working with these Guitar to USB cables.

Those guitar USB cables are unusable garbage. The only possible thing they might be good for is strangling a chicken for the dinner table. Maybe. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
