    Has anyone evaluated these cards? I use them with the Simian automation software & wondered how they might work with BBP.

    Wouldn’t work for composite unless it does 192.But if you use LR in BBP with an external SG it should be fine.What series cards are you using? I run Nexgen and we’re on the 6000 series.If your card does 192,it should work fine..i believe some of the 5000 series did 192 sample.

    Several of todays 5000 series WAV cards support 192kHz.

    They all support AES, though. I bet the marian trace is a third of the price of the cheapest 192 capable ASI card.

    I’ve never seen a card as durable as an ASI, though. Never ever seen one fail. Ever. Bulletproof.

    You’re right about the price. If you don’t have a card, the ASI models are a spendy choice. They are bulletproof, though. I’m running a 3-screen drive-in theatre on 4 of the cards and a 4-instance Simian install, as well as taking care of a local station that has a few of the cards, too.

    Don’t know much about Nexgen, though an area FM just changed formats & put one of those systems in… seems to work well, as far as I can tell as a listener.

    sorry for dredging an old thread up – I just installed a 5111; 2 record 4 play stream card. I have Breakaway Live installed with it. I am using high buffer settings, but every 3or 4th song still has an audio drop-out. Any Audio Science secrets I might be missing?

    I downloaded the audio stream checking utilities suggested, and the drivers for the Audio Sciene card take up a LOT of resources- more than any other driver/process. It seems the card is causing the audio burps/drop outs. Any suggestions?

    oh, and my machine

    windows 7 64 bit; 2.4 MHz i7 processor; 6 gig of RAM

    I would think that would walk the dog on StationPlaylist, Breakaway Live, and the AudioScience card

    It was a bad AudioScience driver – here is an email from their tech support:

    quote :

    “Hi Justin,

    We discovered a glitch with that driver version you have which is likely contributing to your problem. We are currently in the midst of beta testing a replacement which should be available early next week.

    If you can wait for the new one I would suggest trying that to see if it fixes your problem. If not we are recommending customers use a slightly older driver version which does not exhibit this problem. It is 4.08.06 and can be found here:

    Please let me know if that works and check our website next week for the updated driver.”
