I would try them for you bud maybe it would fix echo in the movies I'd hope

Which of the above files should be installed by such typical user like me?
I mean-without programing skills-only average level of computer knowledge plus a bit of musician's skills

Lex Nahumury · Nov 10, 2003, 07:33 AM

possible bug in 'k1lt' and 'Asio'

Users may experience the next;
On loading k1lt/Asio plugin a huge amount of xtram is allocated.

Edit:
Issue solved after re-compiling with 3536c SDK

>Which of the above files should be installed by such typical user like me?

kxdrv3536c-update.exe of course (should be installed on the top of previous version).

kxdrv3536c-sdk.exe states for "kX Driver Software Development Kit v.3536c" - it has no driver or apps inside.

Aykroyd · Nov 10, 2003, 06:17 PM

Thx

I didn't want to spoil my correctly working kX drivers

DSP doesn't seem to be responding to midi.

Robert McClelland · Nov 10, 2003, 07:53 PM

Everthing fine so far Eugene did you get my DSP setup in the email?

Fixed incorrect vertical peak meter visualisation

This has only been half fixed.

When vertically orientated, the left side is now one pixel short of the edge.

NightBreed · Nov 10, 2003, 08:41 PM

Hey fresh101,

go to the dsp page and open the FXMix2 and use the In1level slider, that's where the midi effects are routed.

Also is it just my machine or is the KX synth2 showing up as an emulated device in cubase sx again? That's not a bad thing. I just want to be sure this is normal.

Peace out.......

tjclarke · Nov 11, 2003, 06:27 PM

Hey folks,

I installed the update to try and resolve a "skip/stutter" problem I was having with the previous official release. While it did seem to resolve the skipping problem, it created another one :-)

I'm using a SoundBlaster Live! Value "CT???", one of the older models. I have also tested it with an SB0100. I have a dual P3-866mhz machine with a VIA KT133a chipset, running Windows XP Professional. With the new version of the drivers installed, I got a sporadic, but constant "IRQ_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL" STOP error upon audio playback.

I hope this will help you. For now, I have resorted to installing an older version of the Creative drivers for my card. Audio playback using these drivers seems to be perfect, however I'm not sure how long i'll last without the extra features of the kX drivers which I constantly use!

I have got the same problem as tjclarke, I have AMD TB 1,2 with KT133a chipset. But I couldn't really bind the BlueScreen with kX/playback...but if more ppl have this problem, then it is possible that it's a bug in kX

fresh101 · Nov 11, 2003, 09:48 PM

effects not responding to cc91 & cc93 midi controls in sequencers .

this was not the case in earlier driver versions

With the surrounder plugin included with this release, I never get any sound from the rear center ("sCenter") pin. Is that just there as a pass-through for 6.1 sources, or is it supposed to be making sound when playing stereo sources through the surrounder? I'm using it in 5.1 mode; if there isn't a 6.1 mode, why is there a sCenter pin?

**Eugene Gavrilov** · Nov 17, 2003, 09:51 PM

>> why is there a sCenter pin

for future development
ignore it at the moment

Daniel Drummond · Nov 18, 2003, 01:09 AM

sCenter = surround center (for 6.1 channel configuration) probably...
