1820M & Wavelab. new

#23864 - 29/09/04 12:05 PM

Hiya!

A (hopefully) easy question for anyone with an 1820M and some clue about using it (unlike me at the mo!):

I have a pair of turntables going through a DJ mixer and want to record mixes using Wavelab. On my old system it was dead easy - only one input. Now, having connected the mixer output to the 1820M IN1 L/R and selected a send to WAVE on the channel strip for IN1 L/R, I can record in Wavelab at 44.1 and 48kHz. If I try to select a higher sampling frequency though the WAVE option in the inserts menu doesn't appear.

Having read the manual I get the feeling it might be something to do with ASIO drivers (whatever they are). I tried selecting this option as an insert send and have selected just about every combination of ASIO ins & outs but can't get anything to register on the meters in Wavelab. Any ideas anyone?

You need to update to the latest drivers + patchmix V1.6 - will solve your problems with Wavelab and sample rates.

Cheers Pink

Thought it was something I was doing wrong! Do I have to update via the net? I haven't got a modem on my new PC. Could I download them on my old PC, put them on a CD and then install them on my new PC from the CD?

Yes, the files are relatively small, total about 7mb. Here's the link:

You need the drivers and the Patchmix updates.

One thing to remember, before settling down to record, is to decide on sampling rate first. Then start a PatchMix session at that sample rate, THEN start Wavelab or whatever.
This is a pain, but ho hum.
I'm new to emu 1212m and the useful tip I worked out was to put a send to WAVE L/R HOST in the main mix insert strip.
If this send is before reverbs then recording will be dry and monitoring will be wet.
Of course it gets a lot more complex / flexible on your 1820M as you have a phones output configurable in PatchMix.

I've looked for an "ASIO for dummies / geniuses" article in SOS, but cannot find one. Any pointers anyone?
