Very nice - stupid question of the day award - why can't I hear anything when I play my keyboard in the new standalone mode? Where is the options menu?

Thanks - I still have no sound from my physical keyboard in the standalone version, although I do from the virtual keyboard. Omnisphere works perfectly in Sonar and Studio One. This is how I have it set up in the standalone version:

I don't know what the problem is Marshall. I just updated my DAW and used an A300PRO and set it as you have in the image above (A-PRO 1) and it works fine. Different I/F though. When you press a key do you see any activity in the meter in the upper right corner of the Omnisphere I/F?

The update installed fine on my computer. I wasn't sure if the above warning applied to my edited patches
but they're still there and functional.

No activity in the meter when I use the A-300, but it is there when I do Ctrl+K and use (and hear) the virtual keyboard. I suspect it is to do with the routing on the Focusrite, which I have not a clue about. I suspect that the bit in the middle referring to DAWs needs to be changed, but I am scared to mess around with that in case it screws up my DAW - I only want to play with the standalone Omnisphere for fun really:

I can get sound if I use Windows Audio. I’m running a VS100 with the Octacapture expansion. If I ty to switch to the ASIO driver, the program crashes. Goes for the Trillian stand alone also. So it’s Windows Audio for now.
