No Sound with ASIo driver
Hi every-body!
I'm a new Pro Tools user - converting from other tools. I can't get sound out of ProTools - even the metronome doesn't sound. I know my PC is working, cuz I can play games, watch videos... I checked the SETUP | I/O settings and it's setup to use ASIO audio (probably a virtual audio driver?) How do I tell Pro Tools to use my HD audio? - I don't see it listed there as an option. is there another driver that I'm supposed to setup or install? I can purchase another sound card if I need to, but I'm just starting out - so I'm hoping to avoid unnecessary expenses. |

Re: No Sound with ASIo driver
I ran PT with N key down, but no special menu appeared. I held it down while the program loaded - it asked me to open or create a file and I held it down after that window appeared to.
I'm using on-board audio (HD, gigabyte) motherboard. I can buy an audio card if I need to, but I was hoping not to. |

Re: No Sound with ASIo driver
Ok - tried it again. I had to click on the Pro Tools App while it was loading - to make sure that IT was processing the N key held down.
it showed me the Audiio window, but the only device it showed was the ASIO driver - as if it doesn't recognize or support onboard Audio drivers without a special driver for them. |

Re: No Sound with ASIo driver
Thats the driver I am using - ASIOForAll.
Any recommendations for a sound card that is supported by Pro Tools? Also, do any Midi devices like Oxygen 8 have built-in audio hardware that is supported by Pro Tools? I was thinking about buying an Oxygen 8 Midi keyboard anyway. |

If you want a combo MIDI keyboard and audio interface you're going to have to do some searching on Google; also the same for any audio interface. There's a ton of stuff that will or should work with proper ASIO drivers. I only mentioned ASIOforall drivers as a possibility no knowing if they would work or not. Can't recommend anything because you haven't mentioned what version of Windoze you're running, whether you have a laptop or desktop, budget, etc. One thing: if you want to stay in the Avid family there's always the Mbox, Axiom and newer Oxygen stuff. |

Re: No Sound with ASIo driver
In my experience (and I believe it varies according to what sound card / chip your pc is based on - so this is not a blanket statement) the ASIO4ALL driver only outputs sound through the headphone socket - rather than say, your laptop's built in speakers.
If you plug in headphones or active speakers with a mini jack, you should be ok. |

**noob mode enabled**
Do any of the Mbox devices support "Audio processing" like an Add-in card would? I have both Mac and PC and would rather get a device that I could connect to either PC/Notebook - since I can't get a card for the Mac notebook anyway. **noob mode disabled** I'm pretty sure I am connected to the headphone jack of the PC, but in the middle of writing this sentence, I'm not so sure. So i'll check it out when I get home. Thanks for your help. |
