Audio issue on Tagger

Post by claudius06 »

Hello,
I'm trying to understand why I can't listen to the audio on Tagger when I'm working on Tagger at the same time as ProppFrexx is running. If I stop PFOA, I can listen to Tagger again.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thank you,
Claude.

Depends on your audio driver and device - I assume you use the same device in both apps?
Which one is it and what settings do you use?

Hello Bernd, and thank you for your help.
Yes, both are on the same device (Windows 11 Pro) with the integrated sound card, and I've added a Sound Blaster Audigy Fx V2.
I have attached the PFOA configuration in the photo.

That explains the issue!
ASIO is always exclusive! I.e. any ASIO driver can ONLY be used exclusively. This is not any ProppFrexx restriction, but by definition of ASIO.

Only WASAPI resp. WDM drivers can be used in shared mode.

Thank you Bernd.
I modified the PFOA configuration with Wasapi everywhere. And now, I can have sound on Tagger as well. The only small issue is that on Tagger, I can't get headphone output; I only have the Monitor output. I've tried various combinations without success. Do you have any ideas?

The Tagger has only one output.
You can configure the Tagger to play the audio on the device connected to your headphones.
