  1. I think you are confused. Its a keyboard, not an audio interface. ASIO is an audio interface driver. Second time: what audio interface do you have?
  2. The Apollo 8P is a soundcard. UA doesn't have an ASIO driver?
  3. I don't see how anything in my post connotes anger or antagonism. Its just the straight, unadulterated truth. If you choose to get upset because don't want to hear it, I can't help that. I say what I say because I've been down that road. My advice is not geared towards " making things work" with kludges, workarounds and half measures. Nor is it geared towards massaging people's feelings and encouraging them to continue suboptimal solutions. It's geared towards making things easy. I don't like banging my head on the wall and tearing my hair out. When I put together my current system a number of years ago, one of the things I did was buy a proper audio interface with a proper ASIO driver. And set it up FOLLOWING THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE MANUFACTURER'S DOCUMENTATION. How many posts from me (or others like me) have you seen about "no sound," crackles, latency, sync issues, etc? EXACTLY!
  4. I hear ya. I say what I say because I've been down that road and it is one major league PITA when that upgrade finally forces itself....
  5. The man who bought us Death Magnetic. I betcha he didn't record the tracks that way. Notwithstanding the fact that - as much as I dislike Apple - I gotta admit that Core Audio is superior to Windows' native drivers. Certainly much better than WDM inside a buggy wrapper. Anyway, this has gotten way off track. The OP says "I need ASIO4ALL" but without telling us anything about his one can only guess as to why he thinks this.
  6. It's possible to make music on a Windows 98 laptop with Cakewalk pro Audio 9 too. Or a four-track cassette deck. That doesn't make it desirable. Why not spend $100 or so, make it easy on yourself and instantly solve 99% of one's audio issues in the meantime? Oh, and by the way $100 two in two out interface with a real asio driver is "budget gear."
  7. If anyone wanted to know a good reason for staying reasonably up-to-date, here it is.
  8. It's possible to mow 2+ acres with a push mower too....
  9. What audio interface do you have? ASIO4ALL is totally unnecessary. It is nothing but a wrapper that fools your host into thinking that the WDM driver is an ASIO one. WASAPI has replaced WDM as a much superior native Windows driver and is a much better choice than that redundant ASIO4ALL garbage. The real solution is to use a proper ASIO interface with proper ASIO drivers.
  10. Wow, there's an idea! Use an app that's designed for what you're trying to do. Who would have ever thought of that?
  11. Computers do what you tell them to, not what you want them to. The sooner you get that into your head the happier you're going to be. Did you even bother looking in the documentation to see if that's even a feature that's available?

  13. This was originally going to be done with my Korg X3 and E-mu Proteus FX until the E-mu died. Digital Sound Factory saved it with their SoundFonts of the Proteus 1,2 and 3 modules. While the FX is based on the same samples as the 1&2, the sounds aren't exactly the same. This got me close enough and I was able to complete the project in the same spirit. I was going for an 80's style synth tune. Yeah I know that the X3 and Proteus modules are 90's but the idea was to do it using only the vintage hardware. Even though I had to cheat. Lots of help on the arrangement and style from Band-in-a-Box (edited later in CbB). All the little ear candy bits I played in myself. I hope I captured the feel decently. I never really paid attention to this kind of thing the first time. I grew up as a Rocker and Metalhead and back then it was "eeeewww, synthesizers." Now we have Rammstein, Fear Factory and Dimmu Borgir. I'm not sure exactly what genre this is. Synthwave? It's not quite morose enough to be Darkwave. Maybe dim wave? Dusk wave? Anyway, here it is.
  14. What plugins? What presets? People are going to need some kind of details in order to help you.
  15. Harrison Mixbus allows you to export in multiple formats simultaneously.
  16. I believe that Crapple has their own proprietary format.
  17. VST3 s will automatically install into a predefined folder unless you manually redirect it, which is not recommended. That folder should be in your scan path. It only took about a minute and a half to find https://support.native-instruments.com/hc/en-us/articles/210313545-Plug-in-Administration-in-Cakewalk
  18. One of the secrets to killer guitar tone is to minimize the amount of stuff in your signal chain.
  19. Maybe people should refer to the documentation before they start crying BUG.
