Hi!

I've just started using kX again, in my new system, since Creative drivers started screwing me up again ..

I'm trying to get 24/96 ASIO to work with Cubase SX3. Is this possible with the latest beta drivers (3538j) ?

16/48 works fine, but when I try to switch to 24/96 I get this error msg:

---
kX ASIO

Error creating output buffer #0: error = -2147024809 [size=8192]
GetLastError()=2

E_INVALIDARG: Too big latency and too many channels -- resetting latency...

Retry?

[OK]
---

I've tried to fiddle with the kX ASIO settings, latency, sync and so on .. same problem ..
Also tried resetting all kX settings (from kX Manager).
Tried to restart Cubase SX3 a couple of times, didn't help ..

---

I have an Audigy 2ZS Platinum. And I want to record from Aux2 and Mic2.

---

Thank you in advance ..

24/96 is unsupported in ASIO

Creative ASIO supports 24-bit/96 kHz (with A2Zs, A4Pro).

Would it be possible to copy those CT ASIO files (CTASIO.DLL, CTPRXY2K.SYS,etc.) and add some registry keys to get it working even only kX drivers are installed?

kX runs completely different to the way the CL drivers do, i doubt that method would work

I meant, would it work independetly (i.e. not associated with kX).

But would CT ASIO show up on software driver lists (like ASIO Multimedia or Asio4All would show (I suppose these shows with kX drivers too))?

I'm not sure, but I assume that CT ASIO driver do not need much of the functionality from CT driver system --> actually, does it need any parts of CT WDM driver set? At least ASIO driver does not show up as a service or pre-loaded driver like WDM does. Some registry keys can be found (couple of settings, driver path and name and I/O names (maybe some more).

Here are imported/exported modules/functions for CTASIO.DLL and CTPRXY2K.SYS

iirc, the CTASIO.DLL file was used by the creative drivers, not the otherway around

eg, if you wanted to use ASIO, the creative drivers would refer to the file - without the CL drivers installed i don't think that dll would do anything, but i may be wrong

I scanned (calls) all those driver files listed on creative WDM driver properties (files listed below) and none of them has calls to ctasio.dll or ctprxy2k.sys. Ofcourse, there are some 1000's files on CT driver installation --> well who would know how things are linked there .

Ct ASIO driver seems to be just a dynamic .dll which is loaded into memory only when needed? None of Creative software (meaning A2 which I have here) does support ASIO driver mode.

I don't have a 10k2 card but kX can record at 24 bit through wdm right? Has anyone ever tried using Asio4all to plug 24/96 wdm into asio? just wondering here...

Gardinen

Hm... The original Audigy drivers works very good with Cubase.
