Hello BiggerBear, Thanks, I have those options selected and showing. It seems one of the problems is when I have ASIO/ASIO4ALL selected, the io2 isn't shown in the in/out dropdown menu. But, if I select something other than ASIO/ASIO4ALL, io2 IS shown as optons in the in/out menu. Weird, huh?

Hey jiff, I thought I'd check back one more time before I go to bed. I haven't unplugged the usb from the interface. Maybe I should and see if anything resets. What did you do to get rid of the Xs? When hovering the cursor over the Xs, it is suggested that it may be in use elsewhere (not the...

I suppose I should get a little sleep before work my friend. I'll check back here as soon as I can. Have a great week!

jiff, I put on my specs and was able to see most of what you were doing in your video. I see what you mean about needing to re-select ASIO after changes! Also, I deselected all the upper boxes in the ASIO config box, leaving only the three io2 ones. Then, I re-selected ASIO and the in/out...

I was off this site trying different things; sorry I wasn't here when you posted. I'll look at your video now...thank for taking so much time and going to such effort to help me! I'll look at your post/video now. Be right back.

Hey jiff, I'm back here trying setting again. I've got 3 red Xs now, which is all the io2 section, just below the upper Realtek section. Should I deselect any of the options shown? I'm a little concerned now that W8 just may not work with ASIO4ALL. This shouldn't be that complicated...

Hello jiff, The dreaded red Xs are back. I don't know what, if anything, I did to make them come back, but they are there. Ayyy! I'll go try what you suggest about selecting ASIO after each "test" change. But as I recall, the ASIO selection stays there when I make all the little...

Glad you had a good holiday, jiff. I don't know at what step the red Xs disappeared from my config panel, either, but they're gone! Yeah, the software guy must have had a cold sense of humor when he included "computers hate you!". I think I have disable sounds on the pc already. I've been...

Thank you, jiff. There was one guy here (jav) who said he had Windows 8 and tried everything, but never could get it to work. I hope there is a way, since I bought this pc specifically for my new studio. If I had known Windows 8 was so different, though, I would have stayed away from it. I've...

Hey jimmy, I remember when I was researching interfaces I spent many red-eyed nights wading through so much conflicting information. I'd almost settle on one, and then find a bunch of negative info. I finally settled on the io2 as the biggest bang for the buck, but of course, being...

Also, when I go to "control panel/hardware and sound/sound" and highlight the "Speakers io2 default device" and then select "configure" the "test" I can hear the test notes from the left and right monitor speakers. Not loud, but there. So, it seems I have some communication between the pc, the...

By the way, as was suggested in the instructions, I have the speaker and microphone sounds aet at "4", which seems very low...but apparently is correct. I do notice that under change system sounds/volume mixer it says "Speaker (io2) and Microphone (io2) so that seems correct.

Thanks, rayc. I can't remember if there was any software to install with the io2, but I'll look again. Have a good evening!

Hello XploZiveToyz, Yes, and I just double checked to be sure...I have the io2 selected as default devices in bith the palyback and recording tabs. Thanks for your suggestion; it made me make sure. Have a good evening!

Hello Javiramallo! Man, if the IO2 won't work with Windows 8...that would be bad news! I bought this computer about a month or so ago specifically for my new studio. Windows 8 is so different from all the previous versions; it's awkward for me. I was very comfortable with all the others, and...

Thanks Saddle. Nice to meet you...glad to know there are other guys with a few years on them in this. You're right, I just recently downloaded my ASIO4ALL driver right from the Alesis website, so I assume it must be the best driver for their unit. The paperwork says that the IO2 is...

Hello mjb, Thanks for your help. I do have the switch on the IO2 Express set to "guitar" as you suggest, and the gain is at about 75%. I don't see a switch that says "analog". I do have the mono/stereo switch set to "mono". Is that correct? As for Reaper options, under...

You are helping, DM60! The monitors are powered and connected to the IO2 with two 1/4" lines, and the usb from the interface to the pc. I was just telling jiff that I got a little sound from my Reaper test track though the monitors last night, but it's not right yet. I'm still trying! I may be...

Hello jiff, I have a pair of Edirol MA 10d studio powered studio monitors with two 1/4" line run into the IO2. I haven't tried headphones yet. With some of the settings I've tried, I can get my guitar (which is also plugged into the IO2) to sound through the monitors. With some settings it...
