Re: Can I use one audio interface with 2 DAW opened at the same time?
On PC, with other DAWs, they can share the sound card interface. I've had various combinations of Samplitude, Vegas, Reaper, and all sorts of audio / video apps share the interface, no problem.
When I have tried it in Pro Tools, it took full control of the interface and it could not be shared. I haven't dived into settings or trying to make it work differently. Quote:

Re: Can I use one audio interface with 2 DAW opened at the same time?
My workflow is simple in the case of using 2 two Daws in the same time.
HDX is used with Protools and my AVID S3 AVB is used for Logic... The Out 3/4 of the S3 is going into Avid HD IO. With an Aux Track in Protools, i can listen to the Audio, which comes from Logic... With this workflow, i can use any App (Recycle,Itunes,Nuendo......) in th same time when Protools is running... |

Re: Can I use one audio interface with 2 DAW opened at the same time?
This does not require an innovative developer, it requires Avid to step up. As I mentioned in a previous post, other Windows apps work fine when sharing an audio interface. It shouldn't be hard, nearly everyone else does it. Something about wanting "exclusive access" to the audio device.

AFAIK it requires multi-client Windows drivers. My RME interface can be used by multiple programs, other interfaces not so much.

After learning about this driver, I realized Avid could make something similar for PC users whose default driver isn’t multi-client. |

I coworker uses an RME interface at home and has no idea what we talk about when we talk about these limitations.

Re: Can I use one audio interface with 2 DAW opened at the same time?
Thanks for everyone for replying to my post.
Just wondering: For using one Coreaudio audio device with multiple DAW, will it affect sound quality or latency technically and AFAYK? For example: I use Pro Tools and DP at the same time, at one time I playback from one daw but sometimes I playback from both DAW, will the sound quality I heard is a little bit not as good as I use only one DAW ? Or the recording quality is not as good as when using one daw alone? Personally my ear can't tell the difference but wondering technically and ass far as you know how the A/D or D/A of a audio interface will work in this situation, if it's pure digital computing and then convert to A then I suppose what we hear is exactly the same.

No. It will not affect sound quality at all.
Shouldn’t affect latency either, but I have never done any tests to say with certainty. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I wonder how to do such test, especially for Latency.
