Issue with Behringer uca202 and HDMI audio

Hi Guys, it's a real pleasure to be among such knowledgeable people

I really hope you have a solution for an issue I'm experiencing, while trying to use REW

Here's my equipment:

- Mic: Behringer ECM8000
- mixer (to connect and power the mic): Behringer Xenyx502 with phantom power
- sound card/ ADC: Behringer uca202
- audio is sent to AVR (Anthem MRX1140) via HDMI from my laptop
- audio driver: ASIO4ALL 2.16

This is what happens: whenever I enable the sound card in the ASIO control panel, audio signal to AVR (white/pink noise) is badly altered (sounds like a 'raspberry' instead of the usual 'noise').

I tried everything: I disabled the sound card output (ASIO control panel), I increased the ASIO buffer, checked the 'resample 44/48 Khz', uninstalled and reinstalled REW/ASIO4ALL; nothing worked.

To note that Windows sound is working 100% and, as soon as I disable the sound card, REW sends the correct signals over HDMI.

... it looks like a USB driver issue which conflicts with HDMI audio sampling rate somehow !

I'm really close to throw everything in the bin and get a USB mic

Thanks

Try the Java WASAPI Exclusive drivers instead of ASIO4All, device names starting EXCL.

Thanks John, I'll give it a try and let you know

Thanks John and Phofman, indeed using java WASAPI it worked

Tbh I didn't know the ASIO driver was so flawed

Cheers

Got it Phofman, it makes sense.

Thanks for the details, appreciated
