    Hi ALl

    I have recently moved my music making base from an ancient XP computer to a relatively modern windows 8.1, however while Podium is running sounds from other windows don’t work. Does anyone know how to solve this?

    THanks

    I have worked out that the issue is connected with the ASIO drivers but as far as I can tell I’m using the same on both computers, both are ASIO4All v2.12, though I note that the options menus are slightly different. The ASIO4ALL forum suggests that there may be a setting in the program, here podium, to free up the drivers.

    I also have noted that the laptop is a HP and so came with beats audio installed, which I’m told may be an issue.

    Sorry, I don’t have any ideas how to solve this problem at the moment. As on your old computer, there shouldn’t be a problem with other programs producing sound at the same time as Podum unless they’re all running on ASIO drivers.

    What sort of programs are you talking about – music/video players, web browsers?

    There is a setting in the preferences (“Engine” tab, set to “Release drivers when Podium does not have focus”), though I’m not sure this is what you’re looking for.

    Maybe I’ve accidently set it up so that everything is trying to use this ASIO driver while it is running or beats don’t want to share.

    It is everything I’ve tried except for podium itself, web browsers, games, the thing that plays the cds are the thing I’ve specifically checked, with the web browsers and media player it doesn’t just run silently it stops it being able to play at all. I presume the same is happening with the games but I can’t see it in the same way.
