Low ASIO volume in kx3545 and up

TravelRec. · May 12, 2010, 06:19 AM

Hello there,

after installing kX3545 I found that all ASIO signals are at -12b maximum level. I use ProFX and 16Bit/48kHz ASIO setting. In kX-Mixer I see 2 green bars for each activated ASIO pair, but the bars are just at 20% of the possible length. With kX3550 it is the same problem. Wave output (direct sound) is loud and clear up to 0db, I see 2 red bars at full length on kX-Mixer. Have I missed something?! The card is an Audigy2ZS SB0350, OS is WinXP prof.

Sorry TravelRec, my hard drive died so I am without kX at the moment. I do not recall the signal level being low, but I have not done a whole lot of ASIO recording recently, so I cannot say for sure.

BTW: Make sure you are using ProFx v3.10 or v3.11 (depending on kX version), and if you are using 3545, make sure it is 3545b.

Hi Russ, thank you for your reply. I double checked this behaviour with another computer and with Audigy1 SB0090 - and all is fine. Levels are okay. I think, the problem is either related to the Audigy2 or a fault setting the other computer system. Driver packages are both 3550 with ProFX3.11. Maybe a user with the SB0350 can verify the issue. And sorry for your screwed HD

I'm running an SB0350 with Windows 7 32bit and I also max out at -12dB with foobar's volume maxed out.
