EMU 0404…again!

I’ve see that my instuctions had some "errors" on the sequence…
And, to be sure 100% that will work, I will do it one more time step-by-step:

For this example I will use windows media player as source->EMU->BBP Asio->EMU->Speakers.

Start the configuration from BBP asio first.

-Go to I/O configuration and select your card for Asio.
-Select 48000 Hz
-For Left Input select: Asio In 9
-For Right Input select Asio In 10
-For FM Audio Out L select Asio Out 31
-For FM Audio Out R select Asio Out 32

Leave BBP Asio running at the backround.

Start Windows Media Player and leave it at the backround to play…something.

EMU0404 Configuration:

-Start a new session at 48k (product default)
-At Session Settings window that will appear leave it at Internal 48Khz
-At first strip (WAVE1/2) that windows media player sound comes there, under the peak meter insert, right click at the first available and add an insert send HOST ASIO 9/10.

You’ll see that at the second strip of patchmix (ASIO OUT 31/32) the peak meter will get audio and the same time
the sound from the output of BBP asio will come to your speakers!

If you hear your audio two times,mute the first strip (WAVE 1/2) !!!

Again, If you want to control the input level to BBP, at the first strip, right click to the SEND insert and select to add a trim control insert (SEND insert will go to the third place).
You can adjust the Gain from your source to BBP input from the slider at the right window of DSP.

Again, In case that you want to route the BBP Asio out directly to the output of Emu before the mixer, at strip two
(ASIO OUT 31/32) under peak meters add an Insert SEND and select PCI Card Out L/R or S/PDIF L/R.

and….Don’t forget to save the preset !!

Is it to hard??? 😉

It’s normal…for EMU0404 PCI
This card supports 192Khz only at input. Not at output.

So, forget MPX with this card 🙁
For PCI take an ESI Juli@.

If you like EMU0404 and your system has PCIe slots, the new EMU0404 (PCIe) supports full 192khz (in/out).

I have one of this but never used on a pc to test it…. 😕

Except this issue, at your screenshots of DSP, I don’t see signal (audio) at the input of the card or any other strip with audio.
At the BBP inputs you have MAIN L/R but at the DSP strips 1&2 (PCI in L&R) you have to add an ASIO insert to send the audio to BBP via ASIO.
Then, BBP will get the audio from EMU L/R in.
Then you’ll have to select from BBP output to send the audio to another ASIO route (ASIO OUT 1/2) to get the return from BBP back to DSP.

What is the SEND insert at the ASIO OUT 1/2 strip?

Yeah I’ve started to realize that and just ordered a Juli@ sound card today.

Seems like I can avoid much less trouble if I do that. Thanks for the help and suggestions.

Are there any other suggestions or recommendations on how to confgire the Juli@ or is it pretty straight forward with setting it up using the ASIO drivers?
