USB Audio Interface - which works best with Realband? - 08/04/13 09:32 AM
Hi,
I currently run Band in a Box and Realband on a Windows 7 (64 bit) i5 HP laptop. The software works very well but I have been having issues with the USB audio interface I have been loaned which is an elderly Edirol ( now Roland) device. This interface works fine unless I use Asio. I have tried both the Edirol driver and Asio4all and Realband freezes and crashes. Looking on the forums it seems that this problem has been experienced by others, but I cannot get a clear view on how to solve it.
I plan to buy a new USB audio interface, any views/experience as to which models work best with Realband? I have no preference as to a device/manufacturer but am keen to minimise/eliminate technical issues so I can focus on using the
products to make music.
I have a mixer so in theory could use this in conjunction with something like a Behringer UCA 222 interface, is this interface stable with Realband/Asio?
Whilst Realband is excellent, particularly because of its Integration with Band in a Box, I will have to switch to an alternative product if I cannot achieve a stable recording
environment, frustrating!
All help and advice much appreciated.
