Computer: PC, Pentium III, 500 mhz, 64mb RAM, Audiophile 2496 and N-track.
(See attached file for images of the dialog boxes described herein)
Problem:
When I select the ASIO drivers in Preferences, three stereo channels appear in the Record VU meter and two stereo channels appear in the Playback VU meter.
When I apply a signal to the analog input, the Record VU meter registers a signal on the 1st and 3rd stereo channels only.
When I open the Settings dialog box for the Record VU meter and press Select I/O Channels, I am shown three ASIO Input drivers and two ASIO Output drivers from which to select. I select only one driver for Record and one driver for Playback.
When I record without Live processing, N-track creates only one track and recording proceeds without trouble.
When I press "Live" before I press Record in order to process live during recording, the signal registers on two Record VU meters and one Playback VU meter. Then N-track creates three tracks and then the computer freezes just before recording begins.
Questions:
1) Why does N-track create three tracks when I want to record with Live processing?
2) Why does the computer freeze? Is it a RAM issue? A settings issue?
3) How do I properly setup N-track to use the ASIO drivers? I understand that the ASIO drivers should give better performance than the MME drivers, so I want to use them?
4) How do I use the "Select audio format" dialog box found when I press the Record VU "Settings" button?
5) See the attached file and look at the image of dialog box "ASIO Settings"? Why does the "Clock Source" pull-down menu have those strange symbols in them? There are no other options in that pull-down menu. Why?
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
