[RWP] newbe with reaper, really stuck

Hi,
It's called a yeti stereo microphone. It has a headphone jack so you can
plug headphones or speakers into it. You can hear the mic through the
headphones, so I assume it has some sort of asio in it, although this may
just be an anilog thing.
It works pretty good with VST Host, so I thought I'd try it with Reaper,
it's working better than my ITD audio soundcard.
Not to mention it has a generic EQ to compensate for these crappy
headphones.
I will try using for just recording and playback and setting all other
sounds to the soundcard.
