I don't see how it can get any more simple than that. Only thing I can disagree with is if your audio interface doesn't support ASIO, you need to get one that does.

I'd much rather use the sounds from the Casio then the Microsoft GS wavetable! ?

1: MIDI doesn't make any sound. 2:

Nice way to cherry-pick your data. You of course choose to ignore all the suits where Behringer won. I don't hear any crying from you about all the other companies who are blatantly copying other people's gear. I also don't see you mentioning the settlement: “We are satisfied that Behringer’s current line of guitar pedals is now sufficiently different from the trade dress of the famous Boss brand of pedals,” stated Dennis Houlihan, president of Roland Corporation U. S. “We have great respect for Roland and are pleased that our new line of guitar pedals is enjoying great success in the market,” commented Michael Deeb, CEO of Behringer. https://www.mixonline.com/technology/behringer-and-roland-settle-lawsuit-381972 Now what you're doing is called "moving the goalposts." "Moving the goalposts is an informal logical fallacy in which previously agreed-upon standards for deciding an argument are arbitrarily changed once they have been met. Usually the "losing" side in an argument deploys this gambit in a desperate bid to save face. If the goalposts are moved far enough, then the standards can eventually evolve[1] into something that cannot be met no matter what (or anything will meet said standard - if the losing side is trying to meet the standard using this tactic). Usually such a tactic is spotted quickly. Often, moving the goalposts is an exercise in slothful induction. The fallacy is an ad hoc fallacy and an informal fallacy." https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Moving_the_goalposts Now, while I agree that some of Behringer's other actions are rather distasteful, that has nothing to do with any alleged theft. What I have a thing for is truth and accuracy.... So what this really looks like to me is a crybaby toddler fit about not getting your way. Along with a bit of cork-sniffing snobbery. I also find it quite entertaining, not to mention ironic, that you admit to having stolen intellectual property yourself, yet here you are trying to castigate Behringer.... Hypocrisy, anyone? All this because you went all monkey brain over my simple comment "Reverse engineering 40 year old designs no longer being manufactured and no longer covered by patents is not really "stealing." I'm done with this Monkey Dance.

Cherry Audio gots some good stuff!

Look, I don't give a Rattus norvegicus' gluteus maximus if you dislike Behringer for some reason but it really irritates me when I see people throwing around wild accusations and misinformation when they don't know what the hell they're talking about: "History of Changes to Patent Terms The term of the patent has been changed by Congress a number of times since 1790: Initially, under the 1790 Patent Act the term could not exceed 14 years. In 1836, Congress passed the Patent Act (5. Stat 117, 119, 5) which amended the statute to provide a term that could last for 21 years by providing for a 7 year extension from and after the expiration of the first term. In 1861, Congress again changed the term to 17 years with no extension. In 1994 the US signed the Uruguay Round Agreements Act changed the date from which the term was measured. Because the term was measured from the filing date of the application and not the grant date of the patent, Congress amended 35 U.S.C. § 154 to provide for applications filed after June 7, 1995 that the term of a patent begins on the date that the patent issues and ends on the date that is twenty years from the date on which the application was filed in the U.S. or, if, the application contained a specific reference to an earlier filed application or applications under 35 USC 120, 121 or 365(c), twenty years from the filing date of the earliest of such application. In addition, 35 U.S.C. 154 was amended to provide term extension if the original patent was delayed due to secrecy orders, interferences, or appellate review periods. In 1999, Congress amended 35 U.S.C. § 154 to provide for additional patent term if the USPTO failed to meet certain statutory deadlines that guarantee prompt patent and trademark office responses and guarantee no more than a 3 year application pendency. Applications filed after May 28, 2000 became subject to the changes to 35 USC 154(b). On December 18, 2012, the Patent Law Treaties Implementation Act of 2012 (PLTIA) was signed into law. The PLTIA among other things set forth provisions implementing the 1999 Geneva Act of the Hague Agreement Concerning the International Registration of Industrial Designs ("Hague Agreement"). These provisions (Title I of the PLTIA) take effect on May 13, 2015. Per this agreement, U.S. design patents resulting from applications filed on or after May 13, 2015 will have a 15 year term from issuance. Design applications filed before May 13, 2015 will continue to have a 14 year term from issuance." https://www.uspto.gov/patents/laws/patent-term-calculator I don't know where in the world you got that 50 - 90 year figure but that's not true of copyrights either. Not in the US at any rate. You are certainly free to think whatever you want but the law doesn't care what you think. The courts disagree with you. The courts disagree with you because the law disagrees with you. Behringer has been sued multiple times. And won.

That's pretty impressive and all but copyrights and patents are two very different things.

The law does not agree with you.

Reverse engineering 40 year old designs no longer being manufactured and no longer covered by patents is not really "stealing."

I was trying to be funny but since you went there: You should get used to proofreading and to using the correct technical language for things. If you think it's confusing now, you ain't seen nothing yet.

Wasabi is a Japanese horseradish. Perhaps you meant WASAPI?

Beat me to it.

You are so welcome! Glad I could help!

The authorities have been notified. You are to report for reeducation no later than 09:00 hours on 20 SEP 2021.

Maybe I should switch from industrial Metal and start producing some of the garbage that passes for Rap these days because apparently sexism and misogyny are A-OK.

Let's see how they like this version:

You don't need a plug-in for that. There are pan pots right there in the console view

You will have much better luck with a real audio interface that has a dedicated ASIO driver.

Exactly. Turn everything else down. Simple.

Wow.

If you're going to be doing this, you had best learn some "jargon" or you will be hopelessly lost. BTW, the clear, concise reply you're complaining about is called "technical language," not "jargon." There is a difference.
