Best asio for cubase

Cubase

Hi, am struggling to find a good asio programme as Asio4all seems to have gone and only downloads its own website or instructions for use, Is there a good asio programme you can point me to? Regards

Hi and welcome to the forum,

The best ASIO driver is a real hardware with good and stable dedicated ASIO driver.

Otherwise, you can use the Steinberg built-in LowLatency ASIO driver on Windows.

I have just realised, you are on Cubase 12, I’m not sure, if the driver was there already. If not, you can install Cubase 15 Trial. The virtual driver will install and you can use it in Cubase 12 too (even after the Trial ends).

ASIO4All is still there and can be downloaded (just that the website is a mess):

https://de.asio4all.org/downloads/ASIO4ALL_2_16.exe

ASIO4all didn’t go anywhere….It’s still downloadable once you navigate past all the wrong download buttons.

2.16 – ASIO4ALL Official Home and click on “ASIO4all 2.16 Multi Language” next to the orange folder (or click the direct download link Fese just posted)

I wouldn’t bother with the Steinberg built in, it has a fixed high latency.

The other alternatives are

Thanks for the replies, The asio4all links do not work as when you install it does not load the programme but just installs a link back to the website annoyingly, Is there another drivrt I could use to get low latency? Thanks

I just tried the links posted by @fese and @Grim and both download the installation package for ASIO4ALL.

It should download a file named ASIO4ALL_2_16.exe, with a size of 390 kB. Is that what you get, or what is downloaded for you?

This is what the website shows and the red box shows where you need to click

Hi yes download says 381kB and installs but the desktop icon then says Asio4all website and takes you back to download it again,

The Desktop icon of course points you back to the Website, because it says that it is doing so. That is not the driver

Open the Audio Settings in Cubase and there you will see the driver

Thanks for all your help, am returning to cubase after a few years ( am 75 ) and taking time to set up. The asi4all is now showing in the list to select but then says not found so may have to settle for the steinberg one,
