[RWP] introduction and a question?

[Joe Paton]

Hi Indigo,

I've just updated to 4.15 of reaper.  I've managed to utilize the 
asio driver for the m-audio card.  before doing that, under audio, 
devices, there is wdm kernel streaming, direct sound, wave out, asio.
dummy audio and an experimental option for vista machines i think.
if you shift-tab from say wave-out or direct sound, 6 times there's a 
sample box edit field or whatever.  In here, I got the samples down 
to 304 before crackling and jitter or what ever it's called.  Anyway 
we don't want it.
  That setting gave me a reasonable result.  So honestly I don't know 
if i've adjusted the correct buffers for latency or not, but it seems 
to have done the trick.  Then of course I found the asio tree view, 
and after the machine going in to a temporary state of animation 
because I don't have a creative card installed, but reaper has a 
creative asio driver which is above the m-audio driver,, in the list, 
by hitting the end key it bypassed the creative driver and hit the 
one I needed.  Are  you confused yet? I somehow doubt it.

Anyway indigo your guideance got me right where I needed to be, what 
with that and upgrading to 4.15 at this stage seems good.  Any snags 
with this release and rea access?

It's one o'clock in the mmorning, i'm having a last smoke and off to sleep.

Thanks again.

Joe

p.s.
I don't envy you the hassle of midi at all.
