My soundcard ASIO driver has 4 input pairs and shows up in the Options> Preferences> Audio> Drivers as expected: Input Ports 0,1 / 2,3 / 4,5 / 6,7 One output port: (0,1)ASIO 15/16 When I double-click an audio track and select PORT, it shows only ASIO(0/1)ASIO15/16 + ASIO15/16 as the choices What I'm looking for is ASIO routing choices, or where to select the ASIO routing for that port, so I can choose the ASIO INPUT pair 3/4 as the recording input and 15/16 as the output.

That pair is the input pair on the track you're recording. To record from a different ASIO pair, go back to Driver settings and highlight the pair you want to record. Rinse and repeat as needed. There is not an option to configure ASIO 0/1 >> Track 1 ASIO 2/3 >> Track 2 You cannot record multiple tracks from different ASIO inputs simultaneously, correct? ----------------------- Spank McCoy, Executve Punk E-MU 1616m working on Win 10!

OP epunk Enthusiast Joined: Aug 2008 Posts: 17 USA East Coast	After searching through the FAQs for Power Track, I did discover that you can Ctrl-click to select, say, 3 of the 4 ASIO inputs. ( see PTP FAQ #21 ) When you record, the signals from the 3 selected ASIO inputs record on 3 consecutive tracks. For example, + Ctrl-click the ASIO pairs 0/1, 4/5, 6/7. + On the PT Track window, select Track 4 as the recording track. - record some noise / MIDI - + Track 4, 5, and 6 now show the input recorded from ASIO 0/1, 4/5, 6/7 Multi-track recording! ----------------------- Spank McCoy, Executve Punk E-MU 1616m working on Win 10!

I access the driver software in PT by going to audio settings/audio preferences. Note this is not the windows audio input/output screens it is separate Driver setup.
