EMU 0404 PCI and XP64 Bit, strange problem

Hi,
I have Windows XP 64 Bit and the EMU 0404 PCI soundcard. I'm experiencing a problem whereby sound works on the computer upon startup for approximately 30 minutes to 2 hours and then stops working and starts randomly playing sound from the left or right.
I have tried so many things, i have installed, uninstalled, reinstalled the corresponding drivers but to no success. I have tried putting the soundcard in a different slow but still to no success.
I really do hope someone can help me out with this frustrating problem

Had the exact same problem on my 1820M in XP x64. See this thread for the workaround:

MacBook Pro 17" Santa Rosa and 64-bits strange issue...

Hi all,
my MacBoo Pro 17" Intel Core 2 Duo 2,4GHz under SL 10.6.5 seems to be able to boot in 64 bits, so I edited the com.Apple.boot.plist in order to do so. I rebooted fine but as I'm going to Informations System, it shows that the Kernel didn't boot in 64-bits as you can see on the image below:
http://img135.imageshack.us/img135/8300/softwareinfo.jpg
I Tried the Kernel Startup Mode Selector (from http://www.ahatfullofsky.comuv.com/English/Programs/SMS/SMS.html) and after rebooting it shows that I rebooted in 32-bits mode althought it sais the computer was able to boot in 64-bits mode.
As I look in Hardware info panel (http://img245.imageshack.us/img245/1363/hardwareinfo.jpg), my requirements are ok, but I cant' understand why it still boot under 32-bits mode.
Any idea?...

EMU 0404PCI-e and Windows 7 64 bit - No audio

Hi all
I found you guys through Google after I have been tearing my hair out, trying to sort out my problem with audio and Windows 7. Have just installed W7 Ultimate 64, fresh install about 5 days ago and I can't solve this problem.
First of all, Windows 7 would not play anything in Media Player, gave me the Media Player c00d11b1 error every time. Rebooted and it worked for about 1 minute and then the same error appeared. Tried everything, downloaded codec packs, tried various regserver.dll commands and other. Then I realised my onboard sound was disabled in the bios. So enabled that and hey presto, the sound started, for 1 min again. But this time the mixer (windows 7) was showing signal and WM player was playing, just can't hear anything! But if I play something back through FL Studio, it comes out fine through ASIO and the patchmix. Jut can't hear any wav, mp3 or youtube stuff which I think all plays back through wave. So how do you link the wave output from W7 to the input on the patchmix please?
Cause I think that would solve it, hopefully.
Thanks
Paul
My spec is as follows
Intel QX6600 CPU
4GB RAM (DDR2)
EMU 0404 PCI-e Sound Card
Geforce 7300LE Graphics
Windows 7 Ultimate 64
FL Studio 9.5 Beta

Please can you guys help me solve this?
Many thanks

I'm not sure if this is related directly to your issue but, this type error can happen when samplerate changes from, lets say, 44.1kHz to 48kHz or 96kHz or 32kHz, etc. if the soundcard driver isn't capable for automatic samplerate changing ... which is quite common (issue) with pro cards (if you have used Soundblaster/X-Fi cards or have been using onboard sound, you never needed to worry 'bout samplerate changes (maybe you didn't even know if there were audio files having various samplerate) as far as samplerate didnt go beyond hardware capabilities since, the driver handled this change automatically.
As many software uses DS or MME for output, it's possible that 0404 PCI has same limitation as what 0404USB has ... only ASIO mode switches samplerate automatically "on the fly." To get ASIO mode with WMP, you may try ASIO plugin (you'll find it by googling).

Need help with Emu 0404 and DSP Effects

Hi,
This might be a bit of a noob question, but I'm completely new to the world of recording and effects. I have the Emu 0404 PCI soundcard and I'm trying to record sth with the DSP effects. I used the standard settings with ASIO send (PCI Card in L) and added effects, but when I use a recording program only the clean signal is recorded. I tried moving the send insert at the end of the list, but that didn't help. So how can I record sth with the DSP effects? I couldn't really find anythinguseful in the help file.

I have the same issue, anyone know a way around this? I have
a image i wish to grow onmouse over, then using the same behavior
but shrink with mouseout, it gets some wierd issues, like if you
put the mouse in between it oscillates back and forth, its not
smooth.

Can't burn cd's using iTunes 7.3 and 64-bit Windows Vista Ultimate

Every time I try to burn a CD I get the following error:
"Disc Burner or Software Not Found"
I have checked Device Manager and no problems with the disc burner there. I've even burned cd's from Windows Media Player(and dvd movies with other programs), but I would prefer using iTunes 7.3 to burn cd's. From reading the discussions it is my understanding that iTunes cd burning functionality doesn't work with 64-bit versions of Windows XP and Windows Vista. Is there a fix for this? Please advise.

Here's how to get Itunes to work in Vista and XP64 bit:
Start Menu -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Right Click on Command Prompt -> Run As Administrator.
Type “cd C:\Windows\SysWOW64″
Type regsvr32 vbscript.dll
If you don’t do Run as Administrator, the regsvr32 will fail. Also, be careful to run the command in SysWOW64, not System32! System32 on a 64-bit system actually contains the 64-bit system libraries.

Strange problem in PS CS4 32-bit only

I'm having a rather odd problem and haven't been able to find any discussions of something similar. I'm running Windows Vista Ultimate 64 SP1. I have both the 32- and 64-bit versions of PS CS4 installed with the latest updates.
64-bit PS works like a champ. I love it. Were it not for a variety of plug-ins I use which are not yet 64-bit enabled, I would never use the 32-bit version of PS. However...
When running 32-bit PS, the program acts as though I have some key or mouse button either pressed or like I'm repeatedly pressing a key. Sort of. It doesn't try to do something on its own - that is, if I open a file and sit here doing nothing, PS won't do anything on its own. I will, though, see the cursor flashing oddly.
If I attempt to do anything, I end up fighting with the "phantom" keys. Sometimes, I need to press a key several times before it reacts. Often, I'll get warning sounds like you hear when you press a wrong key for a particular state. Certain actions won't hold sufficiently long to let me do something. I just ran into a stubborn problem like this. If I click the crop tool, I cannot type into the width, height, or resolution boxes on the tool bar. I can click there, see a vertical cursor appear for an instant, then it's gone.
This is driving me nuts. I wish my plug-in vendors would get their acts together and add 64-bit compatibility, but so far only Imaginomic has done so with Noiseware (and I'm grateful to them!).
Other info: I'm running with a bluetooth mouse and keyboard as well as an Intuous 3 tablet. I have an nVidea GeForce 8600 GT video card. I've tried disabling OpenGL in PS without help. Note again, 64-bit PS works brilliantly with all these. I'm running plug-ins from OnOne (Plugin Suite 4) and Nik (Viveza) as well as Noiseware mentioned above. I tried logging in with my wife's ID to see if any of my settings might be to blame, but it behaves the same with her ID. I'm not sure if this problem showed up with the PS update or if it was there from the start. I'm thinking it did not show this problem when I first upgraded to CS4. I was using CS2 previously, and it's still installed on this computer. It does not exhibit this problem.
Any ideas or suggestions?
Tony

Mylenium - thanks. I also was suspicious of the tablet, but the tablet is not in use when this problem shows up. Nevertheless, I uninstalled the Wacom driver, removed the tablet connection, rebooted, and the problem persists. But, I did get a chance to install a new version of the driver (April 2009).
Like I said - strange problem. Since it doesn't crash PS, there's not much data. No error message, no stack trace.
One other tidbit. I still have the crop tool selected. If I load an image and place the cursor over the image window, the cursor changes between the crop cursor and the big white arrow. Back and forth. When it's doing this, if you want to use the selected tool, you have to click right when the tool's cursor is showing, otherwise you get the "bing" noise.

Strange problem with DatagramSocket and DatagramPacket.

Hi!
I got a strange problem with UDP sockets:
Client (hardware device) send binary data messages, consisting of bytes and shorts fields (8 and 16 bits). But when I tried to read byte array, received from socket, I got some type anomaly. For example:
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
DatagramPacket packet = new DatagramPacket(buffer, 1024);
socket.receive(packet);
byte[] data = packet.getData();
System.out.println("Received data:");
for (int i = 0; i < packet.getLength(); i++) {
System.out.printf("%h:", data);
I got such thing: 34:4:fffffff1:ffffffdb:ffffffdc:20:1:1:0:2:50
If I try to parse it using ByteArrayInputStream and DataInputStream
ByteArrayInputStream is = new ByteArrayInputStream(packet.getData());
DataInputStream dis = new DataInputStream(is);
int head = dis.readByte();
int recvinfo = dis.readByte();
short count = (short)dis.readShort();
System.err.printf("Decoded:\n head: %h\n recvinfo: %h\n count: %h\n",
head, recvinfo, count);i got following:
Decoded:
head: 34
recvinfo: 4
count: fffff1db
So I get Integer entries in byte?! array. I also got Integer even I try to read and cast it as short in short!!! variable.
Please help!
P.S. Sorry for my bad English.

Rather fortunate that it auto-casts(or rather, that 0xFF is int by default, rather than attempting any type-detection as most languages do), as otherwise the brackets would have been in the wrong place. If it was still a byte after the "& 0xFF", sign extension would still occur.
For the sake of the less bit-literate reading this thread, it should be explained that the reason for this was large bytes being interpreted as negative numbers, which translate to negative int, which in hexa become very large ints. That's about as verbose as I can be about this without writing the equivalent of a wikipedia entry about 2s complement.

EMU 0404 Problems -- need help please

Any help to my current issue would be greatly appreciated.
I recently bought the EMU PCI card on its own.
Im runnin a brand new top of the range pc on windows XP (im new to XP, windows 2000 and a mac user originally - so i may have just missed something)
But on my old windows 2000 machine with the standard on board soundcard, when i went to my sound settings (speaker in the corner) then, Properties > Recording....... i got a list of several options, such as - Line in, Stereo mix, wave out, etc...
In the past i used the stereo mix setting to stream music to potential customers via msn messenger, obviously streaming what my soundcard played.
After installing this soundcard, i now have no stereo mix or anything previous, only WAVE which i cant select or control the volume for, maybe because its on xp?? is there a way to record and stream (via msn) what your soundcard plays using the EMU 0404? i also used this setting to record sounds of the internet etc... Surely im being stupid? with an expensive upgrade to this soundcard from crappy on board? surely?
If so any help would be massivly appreciated...
Thanks in advance

Thank you for you speedy reply mate.
Ive read the link you provided aswell as several other sites and the manual.
For some reason having the emu selected and enabled in the hardware settings instead of the on board soundcard it takes away all the recording settings in windows as i mentioned before.
Simply i can record with this soundcard, i just want to stream what my soundcard plays through msn, also wherever i look the only option for playback and recording i have is E-DSP Wave [Df00]....... ive gone throughout the patchmix, tried near every setting to stream what my soundcard plays.. im lost
cheers

Problems with IE and 128-bit encryption -- correction

Repost with corrected e-mail address -- sorry!
Hello. I'm having a problem with 128-bit SSL and Internet Explorer.
I'm using WebLogic 5.1 (128-bit build) and a Verisign certificate.
We're seeing some strange behavior with Internet Explorer. It seems to
work fine from some machines, but doesn't work from others. On the ones
that it doesn't work, it gives the "The page cannot be displayed"
message. I've tried this with IE 4.0.1 (with 128-bit patch) and IE 5.5
(128-bit by default) and have the same problems with both. We're seeing
this problem across various Windows operating systems, but aren't seeing
any pattern there. Any ideas as to what might be the problem?
Thanks in advance,
Steve

The Mozilla browsers which include Firefox has supported 256-bit even encryption for a long time now.
The issue could perhaps be the e-qip site is still looking for the old obsolete '''U''' in the useragent which was used to specify the encryption strength of 128-bit though 256-bit has been supported for a long while already at time by Mozilla applications. This "U" was removed in Firefox useragent as of 4.0 which was released March 22nd, 2011. The old 3.6.x was the last to have it.

Emu 0404 USB - No sound thru headphones at the front - and very low volume

I can't get sound thru the headphones at the front of my Emu 0404 USB to monitor playback and recording. At the back, however, I can connect my headphones and also obtain sound but at a low level.
In sound settings the volume option is greyed, so no help there. I am using the Emu Asio ....otherwise the card seems good quality.

Do you mean you can't control volume in your software or system master volume controller at all? This normally means that you have not selected the system audio play/recording devices correctly or you have set output mode to bit-matched.
Also,
- you have a switch for Direct monitoring on top of the 0404 box
- w/ Some software, you can't enable direct monitoring in siftware settings

Conflict between EMU 1212M PCI-e and Gigabyte 970A-D3 High Latency!!!

I recently built a new DAW around my EMU 1212m PCI-e card using a Gigabyte 970A-D3 , Phenom2-X6 T1055 Chip. The reason I built this new DAW was because all of a sudden my old DAW started having unusually high latency and uneven core distribution (core 1 was amped out) this started after I flashed the BIOS to my old board and I updated Sonar to X1c. I tried various setting with the old DAW but could no longer get the performance prior to these changes. My original plan was to change the motherboard and memory and put into DDR3 and keep the original chip but that made things worse. So I then decided to go to the 6 core it was cheap enough so what the heck, but the same thing now luck. I then tried to use a USB based audio interface for the test I just purchased a Behringer UCA202 and I found a much improved response. My final test was to try yet another board my choice for the board was the MSI 870S-G54 and I got much better results but not as near as good as I was getting originally.
Please note that with each of these test I was exchanging cards to different slots, trying various BIOS setting and all driver are current and updated and baI sically doing what ever it take to troubleshooting a DAW but I have seen absolulty no changes. All power saving setting on the BIOS was turned off (C-1 halt, AMD Cool & Quiet, TurboBoost, etc)With the change to the MSI board I was able to get about 30 tracks of VST's running at about 6ms however with the Gigabyte board I was getting at 50ms with he same project it was crapping out.
Reaper has far less power usage as is expected from Reaper yet it was halting and glitching. Comparing the Behringer to the EMU showed about 25% less CPU useage.
My questions are as follows:
Anybody out there had a problem with the C1 update?
Anybody having trouble using a Gigabyte board?
Anybody having problems with the EMU card over any other Audio Interface?
Each time I updated a component I did a clean install of Win7-64bit. I should also let you know that I am using the 32bit versions of Reaper in Sonar only because the project that I am finishing now started in 32bit.
Does anyone have any clues? Please help.....

JJ,
Have you tried [url=http://www.thesycon.de/deu/latency_check.shtml">http://www.thesycon.de/deu/latency_check.shtml[/url]
This app may give you a better idea of what is going on in your system.
Also what resources are being used ? Is the card sharing IRQ's
With multicore systems sometimes you may want to try assigning CPU affinity to just one Process like the emaudsv.exe

Computer slower and a few other strange problems since upgrading to SL

Hi all,
About a month ago, I upgraded my mid-2009 MBP to SL. I'm now on 10.6.1. Ever since the upgrade, my computer's been somewhat slower than it was when I ran Leopard (although many people I know say their machines are faster). I did restart several times at one point, and that seemed to speed it up, although it still experiences delays I didn't have before. I've also had a bunch of strange issues:
1) Safari is most noticeably slow, especially when using something like Top Sites on Safari 4. I alleviated this problem somewhat by setting new tabs to open a blank window rather than Top Sites, but even so, Safari is generally slower, gives me 'pinwheels' often, and also is less stable.
2) The other day, I restarted to find that all fonts except system fonts had been mysteriously deactivated. As a designer, I rely heavily on my many fonts, which I manage using Linotype FontExplorer.
3) Today, I opened my computer up after having it sleeping in a backpack, and it had turned off. It was not out of battery; it had just turned off for no apparent reason.
4) Judging by Activity Monitor, RAM is being used somewhat more heavily by the system, contrary to the advertisements of a 'lighter' footprint for SL as compared to Leopard. However, according to Activity Monitor (which I check frequently), the processor does not appear to be getting taxed any more heavily than under Leopard, which makes the sluggishness more inexplicable.
5) Yesterday, I could not get my computer to recognize my Time Machine backup disc. After restarting, it worked, but this is a pain.
I appreciate any advice I can get. Does anyone else have similar problems or solutions? Or is the general consensus that these are SL bugs that Apple will work out by about 10.6.4 or so?
Thanks,
Nathan

I began this thread awhile ago, but the essence of it is that I had a number of strange problems, although mostly my computer was just slower, when upgrading from Leo to SL.
I've now wiped my HD and re-installed SL. It seems faster, although there are still a few issues:
1) iWork (Pages, Numbers) has very weird coloring. All the text looks light blue and/or cyan, and I can't fix it.
2) Although initially Safari worked great, lately it's been going back to its habits of being slow and showing strange things like chopping up the 'Top Sites' view, i.e. rendering it in an off way.
3) Adobe CS3 will not install properly. I get them loaded up, but when I try to launch a program, I get an error that says "licensing for this product has stopped working". I cannot get to the 'activate' page, even though I uninstalled and deactivated CS3.
In the interest of full disclosure, I did restore my home account after clean installing SL-- maybe I should have brought the files over folder by folder rather than bringing back my whole home folder with its settings? I wonder if I accidentally brought over Adobe's FLEXnet folder too.
Also, does anyone know if Adobe CS3 can cause these problems with Safari and other programs? It just seems that the whole machine was slower after installing CS3, even though I wasn't running the programs.
Any help is appreciated.

Strange Problems With Display and Permissions Since 10.5.1 update.

Since I've done the 10.5.1 update I have been having a strange problem with my desktop and dock displays. On my desktop I have these strange lines that appear any time I log in or open any application, the lines never go away and change locations on the screen once I open an application or move a window. My dock has the reflective shelf for about half of it, the rest is a dull grey. I've also had problems with verifying and repairing my permissions. I can never actually complete either permissions task. I've used some third party apps, they always fail as well. The only time I can actually repair my permissions is by booting in to single user mode and doing a fsck -f command. When I boot back in to Leopard and try to use the Disk Utility to repair, it continues to fail.
I'm not sure if the video problem I am having stems from a permissions issue or possibly a corrupt video driver. Either way, I've done a lot research and haven't found anyone with the same problems I have been having so I thought I would give these forums a shot.
I am using a PowerMac G4 Quicksilver with dual 800Mhz, 1.5gb RAM, and a GeForce4 Ti 4600 128mb video card.
Here is a screen shot of the line and dock problem.
Here is a screen shot of my "About This Mac.
If anyone could lend some light on this issue, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks
