Show Cue System

Hello Mike
sometimes I use other audio software in addition to SCS. Unfortunately SCS "eats" all the available ASIO audio channels, regardless of whether they are used or not. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think it's possible for programs to share the channels of a device via ASIO. Can you please check this?
Thanks in advance
Uwe

It will depend on the ASIO driver, sharing is a driver function and some are not built to used shared mode.
With something like a 32 channel interface sharing could be problamatical so the designers don't allow sharing.

You can try FlexASIO https://github.com/dechamps/FlexASIO
and or Voicemeter Banana https://vb-audio.com/Voicemeeter/banana.htm

Most ASIO controllers only allow one connection. If SCS is using it no other program can use it.
There are some ASIO drivers from some brand that allow it, but I have the Focusrite one and the Presonus one and neither allows it.

To get around this limitation of asio I use the "Asio Link Pro" controller, which allows you to use multiple applications both "wasapi" and "asio" simultaneously but only works acceptably well in playback.

The two I listed above do the same, they allow you to use all the different types of windows interfaces (directsound, WASPI, Kernel Streaming etc) via ASIO. Please check the latency before using in a production critical enviroment though.
