Can't load 96 Khz session using Mbox2 for playback??
I was on PT8LE/Mbox2, which was working great (win7/64bit). I have active monitors coming directly out of the Mbox2.
I have upgraded to PT9.02, with all driver updates, as I needed to open 96 Khz PT sessions. Initially, PT9 would not load anything files higher than 48Khz. Then I loaded asio4all, and that allows me to load the 96Khz files -- *IF* I don't have Mbox2 selected for playback. But in this case, I get no sound through the mbox/monitors. If I select Mbox2 for playback in asio4all, I have to restart PT, and then it will not allow me to open 96Khz files. I get the message, "current playback engine does not support a sample rate of 96 Khz." But, I am able to hear the 44.1 or 48Khz PT sessions. Just a note, all the other system audio still plays through the Mbox2 (iTunes, system sounds, etc). My question: Is there a way to open 96 Khz files AND have them play back through the Mbox2?? |

Re: Can't load 96 Khz session using Mbox2 for playback??
Thanks. I was under the impression (perhaps mistaken) that PT9 was not hardware-reliant at all -- and consequently, I could bypass the Khz limitations of the Mbox2, and just use it as an output for my monitors.
But instead, if I understand correctly, with PT9 I can now open and listen to 96 Khz files using my computer's audio card and cheap computer speakers, but not with my monitors routed through the Mbox2? Which leads to one other question if there is no workaround for this -- what would be a recommended (and hopefully not-too-expensive) way to get good audio out of the computer and into the active monitors? I realize this is sort of a noob question..... Upgrading to PT9 is seeming more expensive than its worth. I just needed to be able to work on higher Khz sessions than 48khz - maybe just getting different interface and sticking with PT8LE would have been less expensive. thanks. |

Re: Can't load 96 Khz session using Mbox2 for playback??
Thanks for the help. I was guessing the Mbox would provide better quality audio than the motherboard's built-in soundcard (Asus P6t SE). I'm doing classical music editing, primarily.
Should I expect much change in audio quality, using an 1/8" male to dual 1/4" female Y-adapter into the monitors, instead of of the Mbox? |
