Didn’t you say you could not record audio either?

Yes, I was not able to record anything with this option checked, but after I cleared this checkbox both audio and MIDI recordings started to work. Maybe this is because I’ve tried to record both audio and MIDI tracks at the same time with that option checked?

Does this mean you had a previous Podium demo installed where you used your old soundcard drivers? Have you ever succeeded in recording with Podium?

No, I’ve installed Podium first time after I changed soundcard, but with first launch of Podium it said “can’t find M-Audio Firewire hardware, maybe it’s not powered or not connected to your PC” (I do not remember exact phrase, but something like this), and after few seconds Podium crashed. This was happend several times, but after several tries I had luck to set audiodrivers to E-MU in preferences before Podium crashed, and after that it is working.

If you say that you can monitor your MIDI and audio inputs through the Podium mixer, then I don’t think it’s driver conflicts that is causing recording to fail.

Well, maybe not the driver conflict, but I think it still maybe something wrong with my system performance, because ther are still old drivers stays there. They was beta-version drivers for x64 system, so it maybe something wrong with them.

No need to sorry, and thank you for your trying in helping me!
But this is not the case too. In fact, I’ve restarted, rebooted etc. several times. I’m learning Podium demo few weeks already. And there is no any applications running in the background – just Podium and soundcard mixing console.

I also have some assumption now about why Podium may not work in my system. Maybe there is some conflict with drivers from my old soundcard (M-Audio Firewire 410) which I sold before switching to E-MU 1616m, but I can’t uninstall old drivers from system. They have no such option and there is no ways to uninstall them properly, so they still stay in my system. When I’ve first started Podium demo, it tried to use them instead of drivers from E-MU and crashed several times until I was able to switch it to right ones and saved configuration.
I’m going to do clean reinstall of Windows in next few days and will try again after that.
As for my windows is being 64bit, I don’t think this should be the problem, because all other audio applications which I have running smooth there. In fact, they work even better and more stable than in 32bit version of winXP.
