0404 installed but cubase vst 5.1 will not load it stalls when loading vb-1. I had the same problem with an auditgy card any ideas on how to fix the problem? Geoff

In my experience, reasons for seeing errors in VST System Link (VSL) are usually due to the digital signal path (audio and/or data) not being routed properly within the System Link dialog box. If for example, you're using s/pdif between two ASIO 2 compatible audio cards properly (OUT of card #1, to IN of card #2 - then OUT of card #2 back IN of card #1), you also have to set your s/pdif System Link I/O channels in the dialog box to the 'same' channel...If say your options are s/pdif channels 9 & 10 (or whatever they are), you set the I/O's of both computers VSL dialog boxes to either channel 9, or all to channel 10. You of course need to route your digital audio properly within your audio interface! (see your cards documentation on that).
You can test if it's routed properly by 'listening' to audio from each computer, from the other...meaning listen at computer 2, from computer 2 & visa-versa. If you hear the audio thhen it should be correct. But in order to 'hear' the audio (besides proper settings in the VSL dialog box) you must 'also' set those digital audio s/pdif channels within Cubase's VST Inputs/connections. But in 'this case', you use both channels 9 & 10 for your Inputs/Outputs. They also say it's best to place your VSL digital audio channels at the top of the Inputs/Outputs list.
You do not need to keep the s/pdif channels in the VST Inputs/connections to make System Link work however, that's if you need to 'listen' or if you need to test whether it's routed properly.
Getting VST System Link working can seem complicated at 1st, but once you understand, and have it working, you realize it's actually not that hard at all. I recommend taking notes, and writing down what you did to make it work, as you go along the way. That has come in very handy when I need to use it again. Also READ your PDF manual and follow that to the letter!

In cubase go to "Devices", there select "Device Setup", in the Device Setup windows go to "VST Audio System", on the top right you will see the "ASIO Driver" drop down menu, click it and select your sound card from the list. Also take a look into VST Connections.

In cubase go to "Devices", there select "Device Setup", in the Device Setup windows go to "VST Audio System", on the top right you will see the "ASIO Driver" drop down menu, click it and select your sound card from the list.

Sounds like you have a corrupt auto load. You need to recreate your default song (the blank one that opens when you load). that should cure your problem.

Good luck

better , you can use it by nuendo or cubase sx. over all you try it cubase device setup and click vst system or switch vst audio bay. for more help call me +8801711904316

you need to update yo sound card with vista

Alot of people complain about the same problem with Vista... Vista is just full of problems... all it is is another ploy to send bulk cash to Bill ****** Gates

This might seem simple, but just to check: you have switched off the monitor on the track when you go to playback? With track monitor engaged, you will not hear playback, but will continue to hear the live monitor.

First up, I am no expert, but hope I can help.
I think that it is just a matter of following the installation procedures which EMU describe in the booklet.

When you insert the card for the first time, do not install using the hardware wizard.

Instead exit out of it and insert the cd, which will run a seperate install procedure (if autorun is enabled).
During the installation, a splashscreen will pop up (at around 45% complete) saying that the driver is not signed. Choose 'continue anyway'.

This should take care of the digital signature issue.

After this, there might be a problem with the cardbus controller.
This is highlighted on the EMU website.
Thats the problem which I am struggling with and hope someone can help out ..
