Total first day newbie here. Started working through the Quick Start/First Schematic here:

[old link]

I searched and went through the component categories, but I cannot find where the Outs XLeft and XRight are to be found.

Also, just to confirm, does Synthmaker work with Asio yet ?

(M-Audio 2496 card here)

TIA.

XLeft and XRight are old components and no longer used. The quick start hasn't been updated fast enough to follow the rapid development of synthmaker. Use the directsound component instead.

Hi db, welcome to the forum

XLeft and XRight are not used anymore. Instead you should use the new DirectSoundOut component which you'll find in the external group of the toolbox.

There is no ASIO yet, we're waiting to be sure that direct sound works well before we release it. This way it makes it easier to trace bugs.

If you have any other questions feel free to ask.

Thanks, I suspected that was the case... Can I use the directsound component even though I'm running my soundcard on straight asio?

Cheers

Way cool!!! 😀

So, like what do I win? Half a bag of stale corn chips? Synthedit?

(Or better still, Synthmaker! Hey, a lad can try, can't he! 🙂 )

You saying that I'm 'more' or 'merrier'? <lol>

Hmm..merry I can live with, but 'more'?

Is that the same as 'tubby'? 😉

Will do, and thanks to you and Stef above for the quick answers.

BTW-by the time I get any kind of proficiency with Synthmaker, the Asio will probably be out and ready anyway! 🙂

Sad to say that we can't stretch even to stale corn chips here 🙁 (get your violins out).

But you get the pleasure of all our company and our heartfelt thanks 😀

No? 🙁 That's it-I'll take my chip dip and go home, thank you very much! 😠

Why didn't you say so? That's different, I guess I'll stay-I'm in for the duration then. You've really gone and done it now m8-you lot are stuck with me! 🙂
