Personally, I would record with a DAW, apply a denoiser, and export; then use an editor. I have sound forge, but there are free editors available.

An app, in general, can only connect to 1 ASIO driver at a time. That's why when you connect to an ASIO driver any others are then greyed out.

Huh? I suspect he's referring to the amp ...

Is the audio IF the zoom? Do you have win11? If yes to both, did you download the zoom drivers? Win 10 used to dl & install drivers, from my experience Win 11 does not for audio equipment.

Have you researched the problem? I got a new system a couple months ago from Jim Roseberry and haven't had any problems with it. I got a 14700k. From what I've read the bug allows you to configure the chip in such a way that it fries itself. Don't configure it that way. Check that the mb manufacturer has the intel patch and load the latest bios. Intel provided a fix last month and I've seen that there will be another this month.

Yeah, I often have CbB open and YT. In that case I'm switching focus back and forth. I'm using a MOTU M4 and opened CbB, Ableton Live 11 Std, and Sound Forge and ran them all at the same time. I had a file running in SF, a backing track in Live and my guitar coming in an input on CbB. Cool, I've never done that before. I first had CbB and Live with guitar as input and could see the input and output meters in both, but it was hard to say if I was hearing both, but in the test with various things running it was obvious. HTH.

I've seen comments in the Cakewalk forums that some vst3 plugins don't respond to program change. Maybe try a vst2 version if there is one.

Are you using a vst2 plugin?

As Kurre wrote the midi player is likely converting the midi to audio and the sound card is playing the audio. In CbB you need to route midi to an instrument track or external HW that plays midi. Go to yt and search cakewalk midi and find a midi tutorial about CbB. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIDI

Midi is information, have you set up an instrument or instruments to play the midi data or do you have a sound card that plays midi?

Sometimes I use a mixer sometimes I don't, but I always monitor the input with input echo and have the HW monitor on the input turned off when I record.

You need preamps to boost the signal to a level appropriate for the interface. You can't do that with software. The DAW is after the 4i4. It sounds like you need some preamps or a small mixer.

That's good to know. I got my system from you last month and it's running fine.

There's a bug in 13 & 14 gen intel i7 & i9 processors. Intel is supposed to release a fix in a few days. I have an i7, but my system has been stable. If you're thinking about either of those processors hold off for a few weeks. https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024/07/intel-has-finally-tracked-down-the-problem-making-13th-and-14th-gen-cpus-crash/

I've used Blue Cat Audio's Connector for fb systems (Eno shimmer verb). https://www.bluecataudio.com/Products/Product_Connector/
