I think I've had that happen a few times. Fortunately for me it has worked ok after restarting. I haven't had the blue screen though. I think my input in my recording program (DAW) was going right up high. Can you hear the noise through your speakers/headphones? Mine was possibly when the usb cable moved a bit.

Hi, Are you using Pod Farm? Also, are you using the standalone version or using the plugin? David

Hi, Just to explain how you would do what the RealZap was saying: You can plug the ipod into the monitor input of the ux1 and have your guitar/instrument plugged in via; guitar,instrument, or line in input. This will let you hear the ipod and instrument and record the instrument by itself. I am pretty sure the monitor in is specifically made for mp3 players etc. and most of these are made for 'headphone' level signal. Should be fine. Just lower the volume on your ipod first just to check how strong the sound is, then you could raise it if fine. God Bless, David

Hi, I've had a look up on the old forums and found some where people have had that error code. I'll put the link to one where some got things working : http://line6.com/supportarchivenew/thread/28465 Some found that using a different usb port on their computer worked too. Let me know how you go. God Bless, David

Hi Elbutcho1, It could be a few different things. Two pages that really help with this are: http://line6.com/support/page/kb/_/computer-based-recording/computer-audio-set-up-and-troubleshooting/windows-vista-7-and-8-tweaks-and-optimizations-r170?st=0#comment_0 http://line6.com/support/page/kb/_/computer-based-recording/computer-audio-set-up-and-troubleshooting/usb-audio-troubleshooting-r443?st=0#comment_0 Hope something there helps you out (forgive me if you've already tried these things) God bless, David

Hi, There are a couple of things that 'might' help. If you are using the normal instrument input, plug the guitar into the pad input instead. You are probably doing this anyway. Forgive me if you were already doing that. The second is to possibly try connecting your speakers to the analog outs of the ux2 (with a y cable with 2 mono plugs on one end (to the ux2) and one stereo plug on the other -to your speakers) . I have looked at a picture of your speakers and have seen that they plug into 'line outs' and also 'headphone outs' of devices. The speakers might be designed for headphone outs more than line outs but it might give you better results. Just for information, you mentioned videos sounding fine. What do guitar videos (preferably of pod farm), sound like with the speakers? Do you get the lows, mids, highs you like or is one standing out over the others in strength? I find that listening on my usual speakers sounds totally different to headphones and some other speakers. I used to have to lower the high freqs and boost the bass more in pod farm's eq. I think a lot of it depends on what speakers people are using. Line 6 base their sound on flat response found in studio monitors. People use various speakers, so it's sometimes hard to tell what things are going to sound like on your own speakers. Have you seen any pod farm videos where the sound is directly recorded from the input rather than from the person's speakers, and do you like the sound of those recordings? I've just had a look on youtube and listened on my headphones. What do these ones sound like through your speakers: I recently changed my speaker setup and so things sound different to how they used to. You mentioned cutting freqs - was that on the speakers? Have you tried using the eq in pod farm? Again, you might have done this. Forgive me if you have. Just thinking of anything to try. Hope you get the sound you want, God Bless, David

Hi Graoully, I have just tried recording from the line inputs and have found that the following works: -Go to the mixer section of Pod Farm and select 'Line Stereo'. -Then select 'dry input' in tone a or tone b, or in both of them. -If you select dry input in the box above 'send 1-2', then select 'send 1-2' in the program you are recording in. It might be called 'channel 1-2' instead of 'send 1-2', or it could be something similar. If you want to have effects, then you can select tone a in the box above send 1-2. If you want to have different effects on the left and right, then select dual mode and create an empty tone and select the effects for the other channel. This will change the inputs to Line 1 and Line 2. This is ok. Then select tone a in send 1-2 and tone b in send 3-4. In your recording program then select 'send 1' as one input and 'send 3' as another input. I hope this works for you. God Bless, David

Hi, Not sure what the problem is as you have checked the normal things. I can only speak from my own experience. I sometimes get the needle sticking and the sound stays stuck on a constant thing or loses connection between my ux2 and DAW totally. The problem is the usb wire is a bit loose left to right. It is fine with something placed in the gap to tighten the fit (piece of cardboard). Another possibility might be downloaded computer updates. I have a midi connection to a keyboard which now refuses to work with my DAW. It was fine and all else seems to be working correctly. I suspect it might be to do with computer updates. I haven't checked yet as I need my DAW at the moment. Does the guitar signal work some times and have the needle swinging correctly? God bless, David

You could also do a bit with wires to i.e. allow you to : 1. play the song on the computer 2. the sound comes through the ux2 to the outputs 3. the output is then taken via a wire to the line inputs mixed (possibly via an outside mixer) with the drum signal 4. you use a DAW and have the sound 9both song and drums) going to a stereo track (recording) 5. you turn down the daw's volumes totally - so that the audio is not going round in a loop through the ux2 again and again 6. record the stereo track which will have the song and the drums 7. save the result as an audio file 8. import it into the video you have recorded You could do this a few ways - like combine the drums and song via some form of mixer, or have the drums all going to a single 'mono' line in on the ux2 and a 'mono' version of ux2 output (song) going into the other line in on the ux2 (this is getting a bit complicated isn't it? :) ) Another way is to buy a convertor which will change the level and impedance of either the drums signal or the ux2 output's signal. Then have one (i.e. either the song or drums) going to the line in and one going into the mic inputs of the ux2. This will require correct parts and probably asking others to give an all clear about this approach. Of the above, I think the mixer would give the best results with the least hassles, but it requires purchasing a mixer. You can often get old 2nd hand 2 input cassette mixers that would easily do the job or buy a new mixer or something which can mix the signals. If you are going to use a DAW though, I think it would be better just putting the song into the DAW and then recording the drums and saving the combined result and importing it into the video. God bless, David

Hi, As Big Chas said, you can't record the computer audio directly with the other (if you mean you are recording straight to the computer), but there might be some other ways you could get the video to have both the song and drums. First off, I don't know exactly what you are planning on doing with your video. It might be for other purposes etc. so forgive me for the the following :) - but I thought I'd just say the other issue involved - If it's intended for youtube etc. it might not be copyright allowable) - sometimes however, bands etc. don't mind people doing tributes/instructionals etc. and they even link to them so others can see them. It might be worth writing to their publishing/record company and letting them know what you would like to do. They might really like it. I feel a bit bad saying that because I don't know what you will do with it. I just wanted to say it just in case. Concerning how to go about doing it - it depends on how it's being recorded. If you are taking the outputs from the ux2 and plugging it into a line input on the camera (you probably aren't doing it this way as you said you can't get the song audio on the video) then it will work fine. If you are filming straight to a computer, then you could; get a digital audio workstation program (DAW) and put the song into it, then (possibly -I'm not sure if this will work) you can have the live drums being recorded in the DAW, and have the program 'resend' the combined audio out to something like virtualdub or a video program that accepts such sending programs. There is a program called Jack Router which allows two programs to have the same thing at the same time i.e. audio from one program being sent live into another program. I haven't got Jack Router to work with my DAW. I have used it ( it may have been another program?) with other things (video) though, so it might be worth trying. The video program would then record from the jack router input and take the video directly from the camera's. Another way is to record your playing into a DAW and put a saved version mixed with the song, into the video. To do this you would first put the song into the daw and record your drums as you play along to it. Then you could make an audio file of the resulting mix (of the song and your drums) and input it into the video. This will naturally result in slight sync problems but things like virtualdub can give you options to try to keep the video and the audio in sync. It won't be 'absolutely perfect, but it is a way it is often done. Audio recording sample rates are different to video rates, so there is a mismatch. For a song though it's not so bad as a long video where the audio can get really out of sync. Hope this helps. God Bless, David

Hi, Can I just ask a few questions? It's just so I can get an idea of what's going on. Are you using Pod Farm standalone when recording - and hearing the echo sound through it, or through Garage Band's output? Is the recorded sound the same - i.e. does it have the echo sound on it? Are you recording the 'clean' version of your bass/guitar or the 'effected' bass/guitar? It's interesting that it seems to sometimes happen and sometimes not. If a clean un-effected version of the bass/guitar sound ok, does the problem still happen if you then apply the Pod Farm plugin to that clean recorded track? Does the sound sound totally 'different' to any effect might or could it be similar to some effect you could reproduce through Pod Farm? Look forward to hearing from you. Hopefully someone can help you. I don't use Garageband or the ux1 but I'll try and help if I can. God Bless, David

Hi again, I have just noticed the title of your post, so I guess you are probably talking about using the mic for speech and mixed with video. If this is the case, and if you have video recording software, I would try seeing if it can select the ux1 as it's audio source and use this program to record the audio too. If not, then you can get bits of software to allow some DAWs to send audio to other programs. You can also record the audio on a daw or other audio recording program, and the video on another program and then later join the two in something like VirtualDub or other programs. The problem is that matching audio to video can be a bit tricky as audio is recorded at different rates to video and so things can get out of sync.

Hi Riversticks, To start recording, here are a few things that might help: - check if your microphone requires a thing called 'phantom power'. Mics like these are powered mics. If it doesn't then it should be fine with the UX1. The ux1 doesn't have phantom power to power phantom powered mics. If you have a phantom powered mic then you might think about getting a phantom power source. These can be found as separate units or as part of things like mixers or other things. You can then plug your mic cable into one of these and connect another cable this unit to the ux1's input. The UX2 for example has a built in phantom power ability. - If you plan on recording things like music, then you might want to record different instruments/vocals in the one piece, so you will need a certain type of software to do this. These are usually called 'DAWs' or Digital Audio Workstations. This is just software to record things with. There are free and purchasable daws and you can download them online or buy them in shops. I use a DAW called Zynewave Podium and there is a free, and a purchasable version. Often the free versions have some limitations but the free version of podium allows near full use - except multi core use. It works with multi core computers but doesn't make use of the extra cores. There might be some other limitations too but I can't remember what they are. For normal use, this limitation isn't noticeable at all. Its worth having a look at various DAWS to see what you like more. One thing to note is that they can be very daunting and you might wonder if you will ever work out how to use them. This is the common experience of people. For example, I went for ages doing a thing a 'long way round' and then simply had another look at the daw's guide and found there was a simple keyboard shortcut to achieve that same thing :) Repetitive use will soon make things easier, so its worth knowing before you start, to believe you can use it and will become able to use it easily after awhile. I am not sure what comes with the ux1 but it might have come with some recording software - possibly a lighter version of something. If you are wanting to record single things - whether it be instruments or talking, you can use normal recording software. There are a number of free and purchasable recorders online and will allow this to be done. One more advanced free piece of software is called Audacity. It can record multiple things too like a daw, but I think it is focused more on normal recording situations. It has a lot of handy tools to edit recordings too. - When you have decided about these things then you need to get things installed correctly. This will depend on what you decide to use and can sometimes be a bit tricky. The thing I say though is that this part is a 'one off' period in which you will have to think about these things. Once you have worked out exactly what settings are needed like 'sample rates', and numbers of 'ins' and 'outs', then you can usually set it and leave it and then you can get started recording. You won't need to think about these things again - well, every now and again you might need to adjust things but it should be fine. - The Line 6 Audio-Midi Devices settings will probably need to be set for how you want - i.e. some settings depend on the computer's speed. If a computer has problems with crackles in the sound then there is a setting which can be set to increase the time that it takes between you playing a sound on an instrument or talking into the mic, and when you hear it come out of the ux1. It is a very slight delay. It is best to have it set for as little delay as possible but sometimes compromises are needed. There is a good video on this site which gives some other ways of adjusting computer settings to help allow as little delay as possible and prevent crackles etc. - If you are recording music or something else where you want 2 or more things to play at once, often these are recorded separately. For example if you were recording a band/or solo musician playing various instruments or singing various parts, you would usually record maybe the drums first and then you set the DAW to the start of the recording again and as the DAW plays the drums recorded audio, the next musician might play along to that. For example a bassist might play to it. He/she will hear the drums (usually through headphones) and play along with it and the DAW will record that bass on what's called another 'track' (a separate recording which plays exactly at the same time as the other recording i.e. the drums). Then you might have a guitarist play along while listening to the drums and bass etc. This isn't necessary, but it is a good way to record separate instruments without getting the sound of the other instruments on each instrument's recording. Sometimes a whole band might record at the same time and screens are put up to help separate the musicians' sounds. If it is just the one person playing all of the instruments or whatever, then recording with different tracks allows the person to record one and then go back and record the next instrument etc. and then when everything is finished, the compilation of all of the tracks can be played and saved and will sound like a full band or group of people playing/singing/talking or whatever. Daws also allow people to go back and fix mistakes. You get a visual representation of the sound on your screen and you can often see where things are needing to be fixed - for example, if you see that an instrument has played something before or after the beat, you could fix it up or select that little bit and re-record that tiny bit and it will 'slot' it into the recording. - It's a fun thing trying out different things with recordings in daws and you keep learning things. - After you have recorded everything that you want, you can then play about with how it sounds altogether. Then you can save it as various types of files and then either put it on a disc or upload it onto the internet, or on mp3 players etc. - whatever. Sorry this hasn't been an exact guide. If you have a look at these things though, and think about what you might use, then I'm sure people with experience of those things (like particular daws) will be willing to help you set things up. God Bless, David

Hi Vinod, Do you mean that when you first started using the gx that it sounded ok or do you just mean that the behringer interface worked ok and the gx has had problems since you first tried using it? I don't know what the exact problem is but often crackling is due to the tone direct settings and other computer settings. You might have already tried this but if you open Pod Farm standalone and go to 'File', 'Preferences', 'Hardware', 'Tone Direct Settings' you get to the Line 6 Audio-Midi Devices utility. Under 'Driver', there is a section called 'ToneDirect and USB Audio Streaming and there is a lever which can be moved left and right. This has 'Buffer Size' written next to it. Try moving it as far as it will go to the right. Then click 'apply' and 'ok' and close pod farm. Re-open podfarm etc. and try playing and see if the crackling is still happening. If it is not, then go back to the same section and move the lever one position to the left and try again. Repeat this until the crackling begins again. Then go back and put the lever in the position where it did not crackle. It is normally best to have the lever as far to the left as possible without crackling. If it does not stop the crackling then there are some other things you might like to try. One page here gives some good help: http://line6.com/support/page/kb/_/computer-based-recording/computer-audio-set-up-and-troubleshooting/windows-vista-7-and-8-tweaks-and-optimizations-r170 http://line6.com/support/page/kb/_/computer-based-recording/computer-audio-set-up-and-troubleshooting/usb-audio-troubleshooting-r443 Hope something can help you, God Bless, David

Hi Hueywen, A good way to increase the gain is by clicking the +18db button in the mixer view of Pod Farm and then lowering the fader to where you find it is right. This is a simple digital gain of db, so it's not like increasing it with a preamp - although it depends how you look at it I suppose. Anyway, it's a quick way of getting levels up. As you say, the levels are low, but people say that the devices were deliberately made this way to give plenty of headroom for effects being added etc. I think the amps in pod farm are maybe designed to work with lower inputs. Actually, I have just remembered a test I did a while ago. I'll see if I can find it. I tried two guitars and my bass I think, and humbucker and single coil pickups to see the different levels I would get coming through from the ux2. I think I concluded that it depended on my attack with the pick. That sounds obvious :) but I just mean that the reason I was getting low input was that I tended to be a lighter player in terms of an average pick attack over a song. If I played really hard, and the input had have been made higher in the devices, then it would have gone into distortion. I think that by having it a bit lower allows enough room for heavy pickers. This is just an idea. Since that test, I think I have often played with a stronger attack - just because of the sound I've been liking lately. It would be interesting to know whether you get levels going over 0db when picking hard (with dry guitar) on the focusrite and what a similar attack gave by using the ux1. God Bless, David

Hi, There are a few things you might wish to try: Like Mike said, lowering the gain/drive can help clear up the sound and give a more pleasant tone. You could try a few things to beef up the sound: -Try (you might have tried it already) having two amps (with or without effects) playing at once in Pod Farm by clicking on 'Dual' and adding another version of the same setup (copy current tone), or create a new one (create empty tone) and then add the amp etc. you would like. With this you can set them up with different distortion pedals/settings or whatever. -Try recording a number of tracks at the same time or simply record one track and then copy the result and paste it into another track and so on. With this method you can apply the pod farm plugin to each track and have each one set with a different amp or setting. You can also have stereo versions and mono versions. I used to record 'dry' (bare un-effected) and then add the Pod Farm plugin later and choose the sound I wanted. Now I record dry and 'wet' (the effected sound I hear from Pod Farm standalone while playing) versions. This allows you to quickly hear the original effected sound when playing it back but also change to another sound when using the dry track with the plugin added. I usually record at least two rhythm guitars (depending on styles) and have one coming from the far left through the speakers and the other from the far right. This is good for filling the sound and also allowing other instruments and vocals to be around the centre. This can make it sound bigger too. If you use the exact same recording -one left, one right (or possibly more) its maybe best to delay the sound of the additional versions. If you listen to the recording with one version left and one right (with no delay added), it will sound pretty much just like having the one version playing right in the middle. If you delay the additional versions however, you suddenly have a 'big' sound. You can get free or purchasable delay plugins to do this. Just add it to the tracks you want and set the time delay to taste. You can record the part a second time however and have one left, one right etc. and not need the delay, as the natural difference of the recordings adds to the sound itself. Sometimes you might wish to record the two tracks with different settings on amps or the guitar, so that they have less chance of interfering with each other. That's not necessary though. -I find that for some pedals/amp setups in pod farm, I prefer to have the gain setting up higher than the drive setting on the pedal. I think this is probably more for lower distortion but maybe worth looking at. I tried it just a while ago with the killer pedal and insane amp and it didn't seem to change it much though. I usually use the screamer pedal and have the drive of the amp down a bit, but thats when using a lighter distortion than what you are probably wanting. Its been a while since I spent some time playing with high gain. One thing which is useful is the 4 band eq in pod farm. I have it at the end of the chain on all of my saved guitar tones. I originally found it hard to get a good distorted / overdriven sound in Pod Farm and I messed about with the 4 band eq and then applied the same setting to all tones. Since then I have adjusted my listening setup so I might need to change that, but while I'm recording, I'll keep it. I'll change it when I get down to mixing and need to get the right tone. I think you have platinum? I see that it has more high gain amps etc. I haven't heard what they all sound like. God Bless, David

Hi RobertMan, I don't use spdif, but I have noticed the 44.1 problem. I have had a read of the guide and seen as you say that the section in standalone doesn't apply to ASIO drivers, but I got a bit of a disheartening feeling the other day when I had line 6 audio-midi devices open and saw 44.1, 16 bit. This isn't saying that 16 bit 44.1khz is not good to be recording in - that's totally a subjective thing for each person to decide. Some argue the merits of recording with these settings. I just choose to record at 24 bit 48khz - some would prefer 96khz etc. Anyway, I had that feeling because a while ago I discovered that somehow my settings had changed to 16 bit 44.1 khz (I can't remember if it was in my DAW or in Pod Farm - actually I don't think PF gives ASIO khz choices, just bit choices) and that I had recorded several things with these settings. I had forgotten till the other day, that standalone brings up a 44.1 16 bit description, so it surprised me. Are you saying that even ASIO drivers give a 44.1,16 Bit output via the analogue output? I know you said the test situation isn't to do with ASIO, but just wondered if ASIO too, is affected in some way. God Bless, David

Hi, That's ok. Sorry I couldn't offer any real help. Hope you have fun with your new device. God Bless, David

ok, thanks for that

Hi, Pod Farm used to be able to be on multiple computers at the same time. I think TheRealZap is saying it still can. Is that right realzap?

Hi again Jpeazy817, My apologies :( I have just realised you clearly said that you had been setting the latency section etc. I don't know how I forgot what you had said. If you are having latency problems in the 2nd position, try a bit further right until you get the audio problem worked out regarding the instrument input and then when that's ok, try seeing what things are running on your computer that you don't need running in the background. If you've got windows and have the graphically intensive aero features etc. going, you could try changing that and other settings to do with windows. You can also change the virtual memory settings and a few other things. You may have already tried these things. If you haven't and would like to know what to do, let me know and I'll try and help. I know there used to be a couple of videos and pdfs on the site that gave tips to reduce latency and help with performance. Just found one: http://line6.com/support/page/kb/_/computer-based-recording/computer-audio-set-up-and-troubleshooting/windows-vista-7-and-8-tweaks-and-optimizations-r170 and some more things here: http://line6.com/support/page/kb/_/computer-based-recording/computer-audio-set-up-and-troubleshooting/ Not sure if there are mac/linux tips etc. Hope things start working for you soon, David

Hi Jpeazy817, I don't use riffworks but I can maybe help about inputs etc. It is best to plug your guitar into the instrument input - unless you are playing it through something else like certain stompboxes which are outputting line level signal. I know you aren't getting sound through the instrument input but maybe there is some setup thing needing to be adjusted - so I'll just mention some things to check - forgive me if you have tried these already :) Plug the guitar into the instrument input (if a normal electric, into the normal instrument input - if its a guitar with ''active' battery powered pickups then probably plug it into the pad one. Don't worry about any of the knobs on the ux2 except the output or headphones knobs - depending on how you are listening to it. If you are listening through speakers, then a cable should go from the two analog outs at the back of the ux2 to the input/s of the system you are using (these should be line level - so they might say line input on them). Sometimes people are using speaker systems that don't take line ins and so they put a cable between the phones output of the ux2 to the input of their system (this is ok if the system takes headphone level signals). If you are not sure which type you have, its best to try to find out or just be careful with volumes on the knob on the ux2 so that nothing too big goes out to your system. Then open up pod farm standalone. Go to 'File', 'Preferences', 'Hardware', 'and click on 'tone direct settings'. This will bring up the Line 6 Audio-Midi Devices box. You can open this from the Line 6 folder too under the tools folder. Here you can select the sample rate and bit depth etc. Forget about those just now and just try pulling the sliding lever at the bottom to the 2nd position (or maybe even 3rd or 4th) from the left. I prefer to have it right to the left as this reduces the delay time between playing and hearing the note, but its best to try it first a bit over to the right as this allows things to be setup and then once everything else seems to be working, then you can move it along until it sounds good and without any pops or hiccups in the sound. Then press apply (if it is there to press) and ok and go back to pod farm standalone and ok the preferences screen. Its probably best to close pod farm and restart it and then go to 'mixer' view. In here, make sure that the first input says 'instrument' and that the other input is not active. In Tone A, turn the 'D.I. Level' right to the left as this controls how much bare guitar sound you get. Then select an amp etc. to use or a preset amp setup, and make sure the amp has some drive and some output volume. Then try playing and check that there is signal in the top left input 'in' meter and that there is some ouput on the top right meter. If not, turn up the out knob. As I said, you might have done all of this but I thought I'd try some things first and see if anything helps. If its still not working, let me know and I'll try to help further. God Bless, David

Hi, Unfortunately I can't see any info in the Line 6 guiide. You might have already seen it somewhere else but I did see that on some reviews, it is said that the ux2 has 50 db max for mic gain. I haven't been able to find anything for the ux1 and as it is a different setup i.e. doesn't have phantom power section like the ux2, it might be a totally different preamp section. I know that doesn't really help much as its not official and its only for the ux2, but thought I'd mention it as no-one else seems to have the info for you. This was for the previous ux2 model but here is a link to a review: http://www.emusician.com/prntarticle.aspx?articleid=142953 God Bless, David

Hi, Forgive me in advance for questions about things you probably have tried and/or are doing, but just wanted to get an idea about what is happening and how you have things set up. Just to make sure I have an idea about what you are hearing, you are hearing a dry un-effected guitar sound, and also a nasty sound. Is this nasty sound just noise or does it give notes? Is it like an amplified guitar but with really nasty sound or is it like the dry signal is giving you the guitar sound and the nasty bit is just 'additional' noise - like if you had a cable plugged into an amp without it being connected to an instrument? Do you have the speakers plugged into the mbox outputs or another sound card? Also (as I don't have an mbox but a ux2 -so its similar to the ux1), can you tell me if you had the speakers plugged into the ux1 output or another soundcard? Sometimes people have pod farm outputting to another soundcard other than their line 6 device and it doesn't give them the proper sound. Hopefully its just something not set quite right in the audio settings between pod farm/daws and the mbox. If you are playing other sounds in the daws etc., are they sounding fine through the mbox? Concerning the dry signal. It would be worth having a look in Pod Farm in mixer view and seeing where the knob is set for 'D.I. Level'. If it isn't set fully left, try turning it there and see if that stops the dry signal being heard as this setting sets how much dry signal you hear (if you want some dry signal). Again, sorry for the questions. Hope you can get it fixed soon, God Bless, David

Hi, Do you ever get any strange noise when it cuts out - like zzzz or loud scratchy noise? I've lately had some problems with my ux2 and it does this sometimes when the cable is knocked - and yet other times its fine when wobbled back and forth. Sometimes I lose the sound in a program and have to restart the computer or the program. I'm not sure if I've had one program stop working but another work after it. I might have. I also find that sometimes it doesn't help when disconnecting the cable and reconnecting it, and have to restart totally. Sorry this hasn't offered any suggestions :) . I don't have a kb37, but are the asio drivers you are using with the other programs, Line 6 drivers or asio4all or something like that? David
