Does kX work well with Reason?

Loveterrorist · Jan 29, 2005, 03:43 PM

Vsem privet,
I have just bought my second SBLive, I need it to repatch soft synths run thru hardware effects, while having a source for monitoring.
This setup worked with an SBlive and some shity card (C-media wave device), but I wanted a slightly better card.
However, I've found out, that the Creative driver does not support multiple cards, so want to move to kX. My OS is Win XP, russkaya versiya.
Has anyone used kX with the following apps?

Reason 2.5
Logic 5.5
Reaktor 4
Ableton live 2.1.1
Absynth 2.0
VST synths in general

Any known issues, problems, etc? Recommended settings? (If Logic doesn't work well, I could also use Cubase SX 1 for sequencing.)
Any feedback is welcome, thank you in advance.

i used logic, absynth, aswell as variou other VSTi just fine, but for multiple cards with ASIO you need to interconnect the cards via the AUD_EXT header

Thank you. Aud ext header? What's that? Where's that?

its on the card itself normally - a 40pin connector

Reason works pretty fine with kX driver package. The major thing is low latency, which you can achieve with ALL versions of kX (with newest you can lower it even more...).
But there are a lot of other good things too. For example - with kX you can enable ASIO-to-Real OUTs... I mean sound can be routed to your real outputs separately. You can make a pretty good 5.1 mix using Reason and kX.
