AudioBox USB96 vs AudioBox iOne Strange Behaviour with 3rd party sounds
Posted: Fri Nov 29, 2019 9:46 pm
Hi folks,
so I've got this really weird issue and I am confused beyond sanity:
I used to have a borrowed AudioBox iOne which I used to practice guitar through AmpliTube. Though I could've technically run it on the PreSonus ASIO Driver, I ran it on ASIO4ALL and it worked like a charm. I used to open backing tracks or songs that I needed to practice on YouTube all the time and I would just play along to them.
Here comes the first strange thing: The internet tells me that I shouldn't be able to run audio from other programs than the ones using ASIO4ALL at that very moment. However I could.
Having had this charming experience, I bought an own AudioBox USB 96. All of a sudden I am not able to do that kind of practice anymore, because as soon as AmpliTube opens ASIO4ALL (it's the same with the PreSonus ASIO driver for that matter) I can not possibly listen to any other sound source than AmpliTube anymore.
While I get that this is how it theoretically should be, I can't get into my head why I was able to that kind of thing with the iOne. I've checked the settings of all associated programs a zillion times, and they're all the same for both interfaces. I did research, and none of the comparison tables show any kind of technical difference that could explain this behaviour. Can someone please shed some light onto this? Where am I having the flaw in my thought process?
