Rule 3: It is not possible to use the same channels with different programs simultaneously.
If for example Cubase uses channels 1/2 (default in Cubase, Master bus), this output pair can't
be used in Gigasampler/Studio (default) nor under MME.
13.2 Multi Channel Direct Sound (Win 9x only)
The Windows 95/98 driver of the DIGI96 series supports DirectSound. Due to compatibility
reasons DirectSound is de-activated by default. To activate the DirectSound support un-check
'Disable DS' in the Settings dialog.
Additionally the driver offers multi-device DirectSound. This mode is not officially supported by
Windows 95/98, but works perfectly for example with
BPM-Studio
. In this mode
DS/ASIO/MME/GSIF can be used simultaneously, as long as different channels are assigned to
each driver format. Only the combination ASIO/MME is not supported.
The multi-device mode for DirectSound requires 'Force ADAT' to be set in the Settings dia-
log!
The DIGI96 series requires identical formats when used in multi-client operation! All programs
simultaneously accessing the DIGI MUST use the same sample rate and bit resolution.
