does anybody know how to get this combination working at all? How about with asio?

I get messages saying the audio cant be supported at 44 khz and the asio can't work because it needs to run audio at 44khz.

Logic Audio and KX.......Can it work? Solutions?
Has anyone sucessfully gotten Logic 5x to work with the KX drivers?

Ive tried every possible tweak, including intel application accellerator and chipset software, and while the soft synths will work perfectly in Logic with 5.33ms latency, when you try to record or playback you get the error message :

Cpu or disk overhead error

Ive changed the settings to

2 IO max in out
8 channels

Nothing seems to work.

System is P4 2.4ghz
256 ram
seagate barracuda V udma ide
xp pro
live 5.1

I want to be able to play the soft synths in Logic and simultaneously record them to an audio track.

Does anyone have a solution or workaround?

Thanks,

Dawkorn

Instructions for using Logic Audio with KX


1. In Logic, Under Options/Preferences/Audio Hardware:

Select KX Audio driver
Uncheck Software Monitoring (very important so you dont get feedback)
Check Larger Disk Buffer
Check Universal Trackmode
Asio Buffer Delay Set for 0 and 0
Max I/O Streams - Set for 2 in 2 out


2. In Logic, Under Options/Preferences/Audio

This one is the important one!

Click "plugin delay compensation" - It's at the bottom of the window

======Without this on, logic will stutter and give errors.=========

There are instructions for routing KX drivers with Cubase at:

http://au.geocities.com/kxcubase/

Using the same template,
In the KX DSP,
Set the Prolog ac97 Left and Right to the coresponding Asio 0 and Asio 1 outs in Epilog

(In various threads, its stated that the "least IO streams" is optimum to use, so considering that,
when you choose (Max I/O Streams - Set for 2 in 2 out), only the Asio 0 and Asio 1 are routed to.)

This was the first solution ive come up with, and its working, so thats a plus.
if anyone has any better ideas or routing solutions, please offer them up in this thread!

SB live card runs at 48k, not 44k

in logic, have selected the "asio" driver checkbox on the 2nd audio driver page, and only that driver, not pcAV

[SIZE=x-large]in the main window of logic, (file, edit, audio) go to audio and select sample rate/48k[/SIZE]

one thing i might add, though i don't even pretend to understand it, is to avoid asio 0 and 1.... i've seen this mentioned in other posts (a long time ago).

why? well it seems to confuse things for logic somewhat, inputs get mixed up. for example, recording from asio 0-7 should go to input 1-8 in logic... but it doesn't quite work out that way. for example (just running a quick test of things right now) my asio 3 went to input 4 okay, but asio 2 went to input 2...sort of (it also included a bit of the signal from asio 3) and everything else was similarly shifted around. do i understand it? no. i don't. if any of the developers are interested, i can rewire the dsp again and post where all of the inputs end up, but for the moment i just avoid asio 0-1 and everything works well.

which, isn't desirable, since now i have to increase my max inputs in logic by 2 (to 10), which should be avoided for stability's sake....

also, in response to a previous post, i've noticed better stability while recording a large number of channels when i turn the 'larger disk buffer' off. ditto for the 'plug in delay compensation' (unless i am recording over previously recorded tracks)... but well, i don't really use any instruments in logic....
