Audio not recording

Post by jaspr7 » Tue Jan 03, 2012 9:31 pm

hi all. I've been using Live 8 for about a month and a half with no problems. I recently went to open one of my live sets and all of a sudden Live becomes unusable. The playback button won't work, the global record button won't work either. I can neither arm the audio nor midi...and the whole DAW lags really badly. I messed around with the settings and I changed my driver from ASIO to MME/DirectX and now I can playback tracks and record MIDI (with some latency) but I still cannot record audio! My audio interface picks up the signals and I can hear the live sound when I play my instrument but Live doesn't recognize the audio signals nor does it let me record. I have a focusrite sapphire 6 usb audio interface with yamaha hs50m monitors. I'm running windows xp 32 via athlon dual core 2.1 ghz with 2 gb of RAM. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Are you sure, that your interface is working properly (on other software maybe)?
Maybe there is a driver update at focusrite, that you could try?
My English is not perfect, I know... Sorry about that.

P.S. to wishlist forum users: Please search for former requests. Otherwise they will be splitted into many small ones and we are loosing impact!!!

yea my interface plays back audio fine. Ableton lets me use MME but not ASIO. I updated all the drivers...I feel like I've tried everything and seems like a lot of other people on this forum have the same problem with no answer. =(
