VCI-300 soundcard

I got some issues with the soundcard of the VCI-300.
In itch everything works fine, but if i wanna use the soundcard in any other program i only get sound from one speaker, when looking at my computer at the audio devices it says it has 2 out, while it should be 4.
In traktor pro i got 2 channels available, channel o and 1, but only one works.
When using asio4all i can select all 4 channels and then it works fine, but im wandering if someone got it working without asio4all?
I got now my second vci and both had this issue.
Looks to my like a driver issue, actually there is no vestax driver it just installs a standard windows xp driver.

I heard that VCI-300 uses Maya Soundcards so maybe you could download and try one?

3

Already tried that and it wont work, the driver doesnt detect the soundcard.
But youre using asio4all in traktor?

4

I’m on a Mac and it always detects it in all software. Maybe contact Serato or Vestax and ask if their is some driver that you could get and would fix it.

5

Already send an mail to vestax, curious what they come up with.
Well actually it does detect the souncard but only 2 out and sound through 1 speaker.

6

Hmm, you should have 4 outs. 2 for the main outs in the back, and 2 that are wired to the headphone jack

7

Well thats the whole problem i guess, so a good driver would solve this all because with asio4all it does work, are you sure about the maya soundcard in the vci?

You’re the third person in a week who’s had the same problem, I posted about it here last week! I had the exact same thing, no other program except Itch provided full use of the sound card. It’s kind of strange, I presumed it was faulty and so returned the Vci-300.

The weird thing is that on Vista both outputs worked normally except there was a ton of latency so I really don’t know what the issue is. Let us know when Vestax reply as I’m curious!:confused:

I presume its a driver issue because its works fine with asio4all.
Do you had 4 outputs in traktor with vista?

10

As far as I can remember yes. I didn’t really look around that much as soon as i heard output on both speakers! I only tested it on the demo to make installation easier.

Are you gonna keep the 300 then? Did you just route it through asio4all and it worked?! Not sure why I didn’t try that!

Well you also need 2 channels for the monitor (hp), so im wandering if that would work then. I got now my second vci and this issue i had with both, with asio4all it works fine so it cant be a hardware issue if you ask me.

12

Still no answer from Vestax, so i called the local vestax distributor and they said the card is from ESI, actually it should be a ESI 5440 but cant find anything like that so gonna call back tomorrow to try again

what was wrong with using ASIO4ALL drivers if they worked?

Seems to use a lot of resources.

According the Vestax distributor its the maya44 USB soundcard and i managed to install that drivers but still i got only 2 out, added 2 screens, one is from claudek wich shows he got 4 out, but using a mac.
