    REW 7.1 and Umik recognition with Java, ASIO4ALL or FlexASIO

    Actually a little more persistence and I have it working. Using REW 5.20.13 (AFAIK currently the latest) , and FlexASIO 1.9 Tried Java but although I am presented with the 7.1 outputs I actually get no sound.

    REW 7.1 and Umik recognition with Java, ASIO4ALL or FlexASIO

    Just came looking for a solution to exactly the same issue. Win 11, Dell XPS laptop, USB to HDMI adapter, can play multi-channel audio from JRiver through HDMI to my Arcam but REW does not output any sound in 7.1 mode, only stereo. Did you find a solution?

    Ultraviolet Cloud Movie Locker Set to Close During 2019

    Over here in the UK I could see this coming. Initially there was very little choice of retailers to play your UV movies from but that gradually got worse and worse until now there are no retailers at all who support UV. So from my prospective it died last year sometime when the last retailer...

    Marantz SR7012 9.2-Channel Network AV Receiver Review

    Thinking of purchasing this receiver at a discounted price due to the 7013 being released. Especially as there seems to be very little difference between them. I've been reading all the reviews I can find and I must say I found this review to be by far the best read. One of the key features for...
