Solo is hogging all ASIO channels?

Hi,

I’m using the latest Superior 2 & Solo on my Emu 1616m.  I’ve set Solo to only output to one ASIO stereo pair on my mixer.  However when it’s running, none of my other ASIO apps (eg. Winamp with ASIO plugin, Guitar Rig 4, Pianoteq) can output anything to their dedicated channels either.  It’s as though Solo is opening all available channels, rather than just the ticked ones.

It means that I can’t jam along to a Winamp track, or with Guitar Rig.  Can Solo be fixed?

Glad to see I’m not alone.  It’s not been fixed yet, I’d love to see an early public beta (unsupported is fine).

I can’t believe this isn’t a huge problem for a lot of people. Maybe it is. Do you know if ezplayer does something similar (can play ezdrummer and not completely hog asio)? It’s like giving a kid a new toy and taking it away. Wish I didn’t know about Solo!

Not sure, haven’t tried EZplayer.

What soundcard do you have?  It seems to be a problem only for soundcards without multi-client ASIO support, like my EMU.  I don’t know how many interaces have drivers like that (probably quite a few!).

Like I say, hopefully we can get an early beta to play with.
