I haven't recorded much of anything since 2013. Since then, I've upgraded everything just about, except sound card hardware.
My specs:
AMD FX 6300 3.5ghz
16gb Ram
Windows 10, all updates.
X-fi Platinum sound card with front-end interface.
Using Acid Pro 8 from magix along with various plugins from all over, mostly "amplitube" actually.
I am not sure if ASIO is still the thing to tackle latency and things not wanting to playback. But I have too many options now:
Asio for all, Creative Asio, and Asio2wasapi (which doesn't seem to want to be used for recording.)
I cannot find a setting with anything that lets me record and playback without hassle or issue.
I don't know where to start anymore and every adjustment is an adventure into deep menus, apply, ok etc with a lot of restart the app thrown in for good measure...very time consuming I'm losing entire days of recording
Can someone tell me where to begin? Which thing should I use?
I know someone will probably tell me to get a proper sound card, but the X-fi Platinum was supposed to be for audio creation...was that just a joke or is it just so ancient? (The cards people say to get don't seem any newer, really.)
Thanks for any help.
