Hello all,
I am using PT to record through a virtual piano program (Pianoteq) with the Scarlett 2i2 audio interface. When I look at the output driver box, the Scarlett driver is not there so I could only hear through PC speakers rather than monitors that are hooked to the audio interface. How do I get the recorded data to play through the studio monitors? Thanks DP

Try changing the Driver from MME to ASIO (or the reverse). Some drivers only come in ASIO, some don't.
I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome Make your sound your own!

Hi,
The problem is that I do not see the audio interface driver in the out driver box at all. Using the Pianoteq software I can play and record but not in PT. DP

That's what I'm saying; try switching from MME to ASIO and different drivers may become available in that output box.

In Options-Prefrences-Audio Tab
In the top middle of the screen you should find Driver Type, it's likely set to MME, change to ASIO and see if the device shows up in the list.

Hello, I tried that but the output driver does not show Scarlett or ASIO4ALL drvier. However I was able to hear through the monitors by checking the monitor output on the device manager tab. The problem is that I hear the piano from the PC sound card rather than from the Pianoteq program as I am trying to play/record with the sounds from Pianoteq. DP

That sounds like a MIDI routing issue.
How do you have the Pianoteq loaded in PT? On a separate track and port, or as the default MIDI synth?

Hi
I am trying to find a way for PowerTrack to recognize PT but unable to do so. I think once the output driver has Scarlett then problem will be solved. DP

Yes, but I think you may need to look at the MIDI driver for that Track. Not the audio driver. If you are hearing the system sound piano on that track, then PianoTeq is not properly getting the MIDI data and generating the sound to the Audio Driver, instead the MIDI data seems to be going to the basic system synth and then out.
Your explanation seems to say MIDI is going to the basic synth and then out the audio output, instead of going to the PianoTeq synth and then out. Different problem than initially described.
Again, how are you implementing the PianoTeq synth?

Again, how are you implementing the PianoTeq synth? Hello, I finally get it to work. The problem is that PowerTrack does not recognize the Pianoteq as plug in for 64 bit version. That is why I was unable to load the piano as VSTi. Once I load the 32 bit version of the PianoTeq, then I see the plug in as well as the driver appearing on my Midi output. It is too bad that Power Track is unable to accomodate the 64 plug in. DP
