Digidesign ASIO Driver (Windows Only)
Introduction
The Digidesign ASIO Driver is a multichannel,
multimedia sound driver that allows third-party
audio programs that support the ASIO standard
to record and play back through Digidesign
hardware.
Full-duplex playback of 24- and 16-bit audio are
supported at sample rates up to 96 kHz, depend-
ing on the Digidesign hardware and ASIO Driver
program used.
The Digidesign ASIO Driver will provide up to
18 channels of input and output, depending on
your Pro Tools hardware:
• Up to 8 channels of input and output with
Pro Tools|HD systems
• Up to 18 channels of input and output
with Digi 002 and Digi 002 Rack

Compatible Software
For a list of ASIO Driver-compatible software,
see the compatibility documents available on
the Digidesign Web site (www.digide-

The ASIO Driver is not multi-client. Only
one application at a time can use the ASIO
Driver. Be sure to disable the Windows sys-
tem sounds. It is also recommended that
you use a separate sound card for games or
other general work.
