POD Studio UX2 drivers - ASIO vs WDM question
-
Like (0)
I recently purchaced my first Line 6 product, the POD Studio UX2. My current recording set-up includes: a Dell running XP (SP2) / M-Audio Delta 1010 / Sonar 5. I have spent many hours over the last few days trying to get everthing working together and my question is about UX2 drivers.
Here is a description of what I have figured out so far:
When I have the driver mode in Sonar set to ASIO I can enable the drivers for 1 sound card at a time. As a result I can use either the Delta 1010 OR the UX2 but not at the same time. In this configuration (i.e., the UX2 using ASIO drivers) the UX2 will record with a bit depth of 24 and it supports a sample rate of 48000hz.
When I have the driver mode in Sonar set to WDM, I can enable both the Delta 1010 AND the UX2 but when I do this, the whole project is reset to a sample rate of 44100Hz.
My question is this:
Do the WDM drivers for the for the UX2 support a sample rate of 44100Hz? I am assuming they do and I am just missing something obvious.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Dave
... oops!
The question should ask:
Do the WDM drivers support a sampling rate of 48000Hz?
Thanks,
Dave
This is not an answer for you...but I am having a similar problem.
I use an M-Audio 1814 and I am having the same problem where Sonar only recognizes the UX2 as the
audio driver and I cannot select an M-Audio input.
Did did you actually have access to, and use the POD Farm when you changed to WDM and selected your M-Audio interface?
Unfortunately, I am unable to answer your question directly because I no longer use the WDM drivers. What I do now is use either the M-Audio interface or the UX2 but not at the same time.
This may help though: In Sonar under Options -> Audio, you have to “UN”-toggle all of the ASIO input and output drivers for one device, before you can toggle the drivers for the other device. If any of the ASIO drivers are toggled for 1 device, all of the drivers for any other hardware are “greyed - out” making the hardware inaccessible.
So again (at least for me), it is one or the other in terms of hardware when using the ASIO drivers. It is a bit of a pain, but if I am recording my drum set, I’ll use the M-Audio and if I want to record the guitar as a DI, I set up to record through the UX2 … I guess it is just the nature of the beast.
Try running line 6 UX2 on pod farm and take the output of your line 6 and run the analogue outs into the delta 1010.
This allows the asio drivers for the line 6 to run and the asio drivers for the delta 1010 to run.
Thats the way I got the signals clean -no pops if I remember
I think this is how I had it set up.
I now run my line 6 on a separate laptop computer usually.
Stay in the mix and in the know.
