Worked OK today for me. My use case is unusual: for room audio log sweep impulse response in Acourate (Audiovero.de) running on a Windows x64 pc. Also, for computer audio playback

All good here - W11 latest/Nuendo 12.060. I'll let you know if anything comes up.

Sorry I was about to teach a lesson, so didn't explain myself clearly. After installing the new driver, I didn't unplug the device. But just now I had to unplug the Babyface Pro FS and plug it back in. After I plugged it back in, the ASIO devices were gone. Now I'm back on the latest public driver from February 6 and it works very well. I could unplug the device and plug it back in and the ASIO devices stays. Hope this helps!

From what I recall (before I downgraded the driver), it was just the ASIO that was missing. Couldn't find the ASIO device anywhere. All my midi programs were down, and Foobar2000 wasn't able to find the FireFace ASIO driver. As I was needing to use one of my piano plugins ASAP, I downgraded my driver after discovering this issue. TotalMix FX and the FireFace USB Settings dialogues opened normally, the only thing missing on the new driver after plugging the BF was ASIO functionality.

That might be true. I could give the new driver another chance today. So, just to be on the safe side, how to do a clean install? Thanks!

Does above affect the MadiFX as well? i’m getting intermittent hickups in 12 which I did not had before?

Rolled back to the previous driver 0.9808 because I got a message on my ADI-2 Pro FS R (which is connected via AES to my UFX+) saying 'NON-AUDIO AES'.
Having rolled back everything is working as before.

This to the test case "same audio channel ASIO/WDM".

Tested on Win10 Pro 22H2 with UFX+ via USB3 (Sonnet card with FL1100 chipset, Win10 default driver).

- Cubase 12.0.52 - 400 Tracks / 800 VST project, music playback through ASIO SW playback AN1/2
  This: https://www.tonstudio-forum.de/blog/Ent … cks-de-en/
  CPU load 34-40%, DRAM 19 GB (alone)
- Cyberpunk 2077 to the same SW playback ch AN1/2 OUT

Total CPU load (Cubase+Game): 85-91%, DRAM 25 of 32 GB used.

Driver 0.9815 settings:
  [x] enable MMCSS for ASIO
  Two WDM devices configured: for AN1/2 and AN9/10 for phones.

At 32 samples buffer-size @single speed, only a few audio glitches during the load phase of the game. This is expected as this creates a lot of I/O and CPU load. On top, the large Cubase project runs in the background, already creating a quite high system load of its own. In total, the system is much stressed. Surprisingly, only a ⁣few⁣/u] glitches.

At 64 samples buffer-size, only one little audio glitch during the load phase of the game. With this still low ASIO buffer setting, already near complete stability, amazing.

Otherwise, once everything has loaded, no audio drops and not a single USB transport error even at lowest ASIO buffersize.

Part of the test, while Cubase is running in the background, in Cyberpunk 2077, a fast race with a car through the town at up to 250 km/h, this creates plenty of moving objects.

These results are really fantastic. Heavily loaded system (Cubase and Cyberpunk 2077) and no audio drops.
Not too bad for a 9y old system. :-)

@RME/MC: excellent work.

Testing 0.9815 for playback, I notice that the MADIface Series Settings dialogue must be open in order to track USB errors. There are no errors. However, the error monitoring feature requires the MADIface window to be open. Monitoring resets to 0 minutes when the window is closed. (there is no minimize feature)

System; Windows 11 22H2 Build 22621.1555. Streamer > USB > Topping D10s bridge mode > UFX+ Optical 2 > USB 3 > Win 11 PC with Sonnet Allegro Pro Type A USB 3.2 PCIe card (ASMedia driver) > Acourate Convolver > AN3/4 and AN5/6 output

Download link?

For the future, as it is unlikely that RME will update driver download links for legacy products immediately:

Simply look at the UFX III's download link, the devices are using the same driver.
