I just upgraded my production PC to Windows 7 64 bit. Since EMU does not support the old flagship 1820m, I used the Vista 64 bit drives to get it to work. Problem is that I have to use “full duplex mode” to record and playback. I can only shorten the latency if I only work with E-MU ASIO mode so that is the problem. I can get the input and output latency down to 3 ms in the E-MU ASIO mode, but in the AISO DirectX Full Duplex Driver (mode) the latency is extremely high. For some reason I can only RECORD and PLAYBACK in the AISO FULL Duplex mode. Does anyone know how I can get the sound card to function properly in the E-MU ASIO mode? This E-mu sound card does not support direct out so I have to adjust the latency.
On the Emu newspage it states that the full driver is imminent. Unless you’re very unlucky it should drive the whole range of Emu I/faces. http://www.emu.com/
Yep. Emu can be like that. Could be a couple of years.
I had looked at their news a couple of times this year and I don’t think the announcement about the beta reaching full driver status was there a month or two ago.
Creative Labs and Emu have turned their backs on the flagship 1820m users. Shame on such a low class act!!! I will never spend my money on a Creative Lab or emu product again. I tried the M-audio ProFire 610 today and what a lame sub-standard excuse for an audio interface. It is okay for a young artist maybe, but not someone that really makes a living from a home studio. I ordered the Steinberg MR 816 CSX today. I anticipate that this will be great quality and easily interface with Cubase 6. I hope I am correct
I have my 1820m working with win7 x64. Not sure which drivers I used now and am not in my studio ATM. Try the Emu sub forum at http://www.productionforums.com for help.
Well, best of luck. After getting burned by investing in a Steinberg Midex8, I refuse to purchase any hardware carrying the Steinberg brand ever again.
I’m afraid that Emu deliberately keeps these drivers in beta, so they don’t need to formally support anything.
Emu & Creative appear to have given up pro-audio…
