Default Pro Tools First don't launch

Hi,

My Pro Tools First won't launch at all.
After start it initializes audio card, stops there and gives error message:
'Your audio device is configured with unsupported audio buffer size.
Please select one of the following supported buffer sizes in the device control panel: 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, or 2048.'

I am using Windows audio card for playback and edit recordings.
(of course i carry only laptop with me and not whole recording studio )

HOW to setup windows audio card buffer size. I have no idea.
I am using Windows 7 64 bit Enterprise version.
Laptop is DELL Latitude E5440.
Audio card is Realtek

Hi and Welcome

On Windows you might need to download Asio4All to use the internal audio. I think you should try downloading from www.asio4all.com which is free and try to setup the PT|First when you installed that driver.

Hi,

I actually tried to install Asio4all but that didn't help.
ProTools first don't launch asio4all driver because icon won't appear to task bar of windows.

And I also forgot to mention in my earlier message that PT first shuts down after error message.
I have to click OK in that erro rmessage and then PT closes.

I installed PT to computer to check what kind of program this is because I was thinking to change DAW for my studio.
I am using presonus studio one 3 now and that program has no problems with my laptop audio card.
I was ready to pay version of pro tools but this doesn't look so good now.

Hello makpet,

Hold the N key down immediately after launching until the Playback Engine window opens to select your device. Hope this helps.


Good luck,
RC

WHY does it seem to always stop here w/ NO solution?

I'm using a Focusrite 2i4, a Sound Blaster Z-Series and VoiceMeeter Virtual Audio Mixer as my devices w/ all of my other programs w/ NO problems - yet I can't even OPEN Pro Tools First...
