So I went back to direct monitoring, but I can faintly hear the clean while playing. On a side note: While recording wet+dry, are there any advantages/disadvantages to using the Axe Fx II instead of going through my 2i4 interface? Also, while recording wet+dry, is there anyway to mute the dry track? I like using direct monitoring so there's no delay, so I guess not? I tried turning direct monitoring off and using the lowest (32) latency, but I still got laggy off-sync stuff going on while recording the 2 tracks at once. Why does my pro tools always freeze when I try to use my Axe as a soundcard? What am I doing wrong? Is it possible to re-amp while using the Focusrite 2i4 as soundcard, with the same quality? Force-quit Pro Tools via the Windows Task Manager then re-open Pro Tools. It provides a translation layer between Steinberg ASIO protocol and Windows' native low-level audio API (WASAPI). Will Pro Tools 12 work with the Asio4all drivers Printer Series. This project is a hardware-independent ASIO driver for Windows Vista or higher. I am switching to the Axe to re-amp because I don't know if there are ways to do it using the 2i4 interface. Universal hardware-independent ASIO driver. Then to re-amp I try to switch to Axe Fx as soundcard but Pro Tools just freezes every time. Wet: Axe Fx Output 1 L -> Input 1 2i4 interface -> 2i4 Outs (monitors)ĭry: Using 'OUT 2 Echo Input 1' setting, I go Axe Fx Output 2 L -> Input 2 2i4 interface -> 2i4 Outs (monitors) Right now I'm doing this to record wet + dry tracks together, so I can re-amp later: This also means I'm getting into re-amping, but this is where I'm running into problems, because I'm currently using the 2i4 to record wet + dry/DI, then trying to switch to the Axe Fx as soundcard. I have both the 2i4 and Axe disabled in windows playback devices to avoid any driver conflicts w/ windows & protools.īoth 2i4 and Axe Fx being used 48k Pro Tools session.īasically, I'm just getting into recording a DI/dry track along with my distortion track, so I can start recording guitars for my band, and re-amp later. I also have a Focusrite 2i4 USB 2.0 interface & drivers connected, but problem seems to happen even if I have it 'disabled' in device manager. I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit, Pro Tools 12.4. Are you getting AAE 6117 Errors in Pro Tools First, or errors that say you need to switch audio devices, or you are not getting any sound from Pro Tools Firs.

Hey guys, every time I switch to use my Axe Fx II XL as my playback engine (soundcard) in Pro Tools 12, it seems to freeze pro tools (not responding then I have to crash it).
