EDITED:
Cool, many thanks that you provided this :-)
But would it eventually be possible to let the user to determine the order ?
With the MADIface driver which controls a lot of devices (which is a very nice thing BTW) the likelyness to have more than 2 devices is increased. With 3 devices you have already 1 x 2 x 3 = 6 different ordering possibilities.
In my case I have 3 devices (2 UFX+ and ADI2 Pro).
Then you get by ascending/descending lexical sort order 2 possibilities out of 6.
UFX+#1 ...3fc1#2a108...
UFX+#2 ...3fc1#3a109...
ADI-2 Pro ...3fd2#6734....
ADI-2 Pro ...3fd2#6734....
UFX+#2 ...3fc1#3a109...
UFX+#1 ...3fc1#2a108...
I could think of in my case that a different sort order than that
i.e. "bring UFX+#2 into the front followed by UFX#1 and then at last the ADI-2 Pro"
would have benefits for me.
Main reason for me as Cubase user, because in Cubase the configuration of Inputs and Outputs is not so nice.
The predefined mapping, whether you want mono or stereo channels is too crude.
So I have to enter the Inputs and Outputs (and this is a lot)
channel by channel for 2 UFX+ and the ADI-2 Pro.
So a fully customized preselection of order on driver level would be very helpful.
Issue: there seems to be an issue, since I preordered the devices in the RME driver, Cubase 9.5.10 seems to recognize now only few channels / one of the three devices. MADIface driver is selected.
Solution: after the installation of this new driver "Limit ASIO to 32 Channels" became active.
Have the driver default settings been changed in this driver release ? Or was it me by accident ?
