    OK, so computer built and delta 44 acquired. All going good on a fresh install of windows 7 home 32bit.
    Everything seems to be working fine except the studio monitor out. The problem is distortion on the output. I have 4 outs on the soundcard with 1&2 as FM audio out and 3&4 as studio monitor out.
    On the GUI for the soundcard it shows the software return meters (internal outs from BBP). The studio out is quite a bit louder than the FM out (maybe 8-10db). I think this is where the distortion is happening. I have no control over the levels between BBP out and the sound card.
    The distortion is a lot less on Regulator and News/Talk presets.
    If I turn the input down the distortion goes but it has to go down to -40dbfs. This is not a solution….
    The FM out is always good. I tried increasing the buffer but with no effect.
    I tried assigning the studio out to different outs on the soundcard and the problem moved. In calibration all the studio out limiter/clippers are unchecked.
    Also tried different latency settings but no change.

    Any ideas very welcome. I’m going to download and try the BBP with live to see how it goes. I would prefer to use the asio version though.

    After a quick test it looks like it’s just the beta that’s distorting.
    I went back to the current release and while there is still a level difference between the studio and fm out there doesn’t seem to be distortion.

    There shouldn’t be any distortion in the current version according to the latest software topic.

    Try investigating the speaker controller. 🙂

    Here’s what I have done.

    Install 0.90.95, set up audio i/o, select zenith and listen to studio monitor out. Result is distorted.
    Install 0.90.78, set up audio i/o, select zenith and listen to studio monitor out. Result is NOT distorted.
    Repeated this process twice with the same results..

    Tried ASIO4ALL instead of the M-Audio ones but made no difference.

    It’s digital clipping/distortion as you know by the sound.

    I would stick with 0.90.78 but I would really miss the stereo enhancer. Is the enhancer available as a separate plugin?

    Any ideas?

    It’s a bug in 0.90.95 due to the change in bit resolution which has left the studio monitor out +4db louder than it should be.
    I’m sticking with 0.90.78 for now until the next release.

    Ah i thought that was fixed for all of the versions with speaker controllers that moved to the 64bit processing. that’s a bummer.

    Is there any fix for that distortion/digital clipping on Studio Out Problem?
    I have the problem that 0.90.95 ASIO has a too loud signal on Studio Outputs 🙁

    Is someone going to fix that?

    Can't find the old version anywhere. Does someone still have the installer and could you please give me a working downloadlink for the version that does not have this nasty bug?

    Thank you very much 🙂
