Hi, This is my first post in this forum. I have just began to use my Positive Grid Spark 40 amplifier as an audio interface to record guitar in Cubase elements 9.5. I have managed to get it to work by installing the Positive Grid ASIO driver. When I want to listen to the track I just recorded there is no sound unless I change ASIO driver to the Focusrite ASIO driver (for my Scarlett 2i2) interface that I am using. Is there a way to get sound from all instuments including Midi-keyboard without having to toggle between the ASIO drivers? Perhaps this was confusing to You.
You can’t use two different devices simultaneously in Cubase. You can however use asio4all and there is another program someone mentioned in a thread a couple of days ago that joins two different asio interfaces.
These are for pc only. Apparently Macs have something that lets you aggregate interfaces although the latency goes up.
Hi,
Did you ever find a solution for Spark 40 w/ Cubase Pro 13 and asio4all? I find asio4all a nightmare, somethings are good others don’t translate especially if your creating virtual instruments.
Thanks
You’ll need to clarify what you mean by this…ASIO4all is not the best driver around but it does generally work, no idea what you mean by some things not translating.
VB Coconut/Matrix is the newer option that will aggregate asio devices. It’s a fair bit more complex to set up but supposed to work very well (better than ASIO4all) with resampling to maintain sync.
Hi,
Thanks for clearing the path to the Matrix…Coconut.
Three short YouTube vids, repeat and go.
Looks like just what I needed. I will test the Shark 40 this weekend using a remote virtual instrument.
The interface is very intuitive though the 15 ms latency is a concern, so I’ll be digging around for more info.
Thanks
