Sped Up Gibberish on Delta1010. Help!

[Scinx]

I am just trying to figure out my new equipment.
My Delta1010 is set up so that
1) Outputs 1-4 on the board feed the Delta Ins 1-4 and
2) Deltas Outs 5-8 feed the boards 5-8 Ins

I use CoolEditPro 2. When I tell it to play back a previously recorded track from DeltaOut7/8 I get a bunch of sped up crap. I can hear my voice or instrument or whatever - but it seems sped up and mixed with junk. If I switch the track to come out the Delta5/6 - it sounds fine. Is something wrong with the 7 and 8 outs? Or is there some type of setting Ive managed to mangle.

Thanks -
Im quite tired so hopefully this question makes sense...

Actually - it is happening on different tracks and on different channels. Can CoolEditPro be doing this?
When I push play - the line (which normally moves from left to right as the song progresses) jumps all over the place. However - If I use my Soundblaster card - the file plays fine.
It seems as if Delta1010 and CoolEditPro are not getting along to well. It is intermittant. It was working just fine at the beginning and now its being pissy.
Any suggestions?

Hey,

check your sample rate... this happens when the card is set to play back at one rate, and cool edit is sending it data at a different rate. (happened with a delta dio 2496)

what drivers are you using for cool edit? (I'm kind of a wavelab guy so I'm real used to asio), also make sure you've got the right driver for your os...

The one other consideration/place this happens is when you have to sound cards installed... do you still have a live/audigy etc... in your machine?

I realize I'm giving you more questions than answers, just trying to narrow your problem a little bit.

Try to double check the hardware/software sample rates... if that doesn't work, you can pm / email me... I'll see if I can help anymore than that.

Thanks for the response.
How do I check my sample rates? I was thinking along this line. The only one I know of is by going into my delta control panel. Does CEP have one as well?

Im using the Delta1010 driver that MAudio has on their site (the latest one that isnt a beta). It wasnt signed by MSFT - which I found odd - but thats what I got.

I actually have 3 sound cards installed. I have one onboard my Epox Mboard (i dont use this at all...im thinking of shutting it off in the BIOS), 1 Soundblaster 128 PCI (which I use to listen to mp3s and music), and the Delta1010 (which is solely used for recording, mixing, etc.)

Based off of that - I would say it has something to do with sample rate - but I could be wrong.
Thanks alot for your help!

yeah... my delta experience if from the dio, if it's control panel is similar there should be a way to set the sample rate... I'm guessing you're options are the typical 16/44.1 through 24/96, or 24/48?

So....

Let's do this scientifically... first:

disable that onboard soundcard. silly motherboard...

next... set the delta to 16/44.1 and open up a wav that you know to be 16/44.1 in cool edit... see if it plays back normally ... if it does, then we know what's up, and you just have to make sure that your sample rates are synched.

Otherwise...

Disable the SB, and repeat the previous step.
(This would probably be the first thing delta would tell you... so....)

If none of these things work... plan c) call m-audio... make them fix it.

good luck
