I assume this was an existing system that worked with Win7 and now doesn't work with Win10.  Have you changed any of the USB ports that your devices are using?  Sometimes that error pops up when the device isn't put back in the same port.




Nope.

Due to an issue with my Tascam FW 1884 I rolled back Win 10 (but I cannot find out to which version), and all is well here. So I would try to do that if I were you. 
Ps. Just found out how to check Win version. But cannot do this until tomorrow, as my studio is being set up from scratch again. Will report back.
All the best.




Hi Zargg71
 
Rolling back to Win7 is not an option for me and nor should it be for anyone as that papers over the cracks. My studio HAS to be up to the most modern of OS. The mere thought of going back to win 8.1 is ghastly and the thought of going back to Win7 is even worse as its core is Vista.
 
But will appreciate your feedback.





I did not roll back to Win 7, but to an earlier Win 10 build. Will give the build nr tomorrow.
All the best.




Lets swap build numbers when you can! cheers fella.


I am on build 10240. Do not know how "old" that is..

All the best.

Is your MOTU plugged into a Firewire, USB-2 or USB-3 port?  I don't see that info above anywhere.  My MOTU USB device doesn't play well with USB-3, and that's on Windows 7.

USB 2.0, always worked before and as I say, works with any other app just fine.

I might try to upgrade tonight, to see if my Tascam issue has been resolved. Thanks.
All the best.

Further troubleshooting.
 
X3 wont play at all with the "recording device is in use etc "
SPLAT plays but at the wrong speed, its slower so its a bit rate issue and drivers.
 
I have tried every setting under the sun, exclusive mode, share drivers with other programs etc and all their combinations and nothing works.
 
This is driving me nuts, especially as I have 2 pro sound design gigs coming up.
 
PT works fine, all other software works fine. Uggghhhhhh.

Further troubleshooting.
 
Changed from ASIO to WKM and back again to do a rescan of the devices / drivers and Sonar isn't picking up mu SPDIF output for some unfathomable reason. See screenshot.

Any (advanced) help much appreciated.

RESOLVED!!
 
Wootage! 
 
After a re-install of MOTU Drivers it had added the MOTU mix return device. Disabled the little perisher and rebooted.
Now playing as normal.
 
That was horrible.
