Hi Sergey, have you tried this workaround?

Unfortunatly we are almost useless with this, as we don't own any soundcard with those chips and we can't test it.

[Sergey]

Yes, it work. ACX, can You implement it in next release like a Cmedia fix? Tumbler "E-MU click fix" something one? I think all of user that old card be happy and be thankful to You, and all your comunity. It work not ideal and have lag, but much better then without it.

[ACX]

Please post here a 100% working script and the instructions to run it (has it to be run only once to fix the problem?), available for use to anyone who needs it, at least until we decide to integrate that into the UI (let's also see if other people ask for that before).

Thank you, I edited your post with the proper CODE tag.

Geeez, that's my script!

Good to see it helps others!

I know it's been a heck of an ugly workaround, but, hey - it works (kind of)...

Every once in a while you might get a short "beep" as the track with a different sample rate starts to play, before the script kicks in and changes the sample rate... But, even that is a lot better than nothing.

BTW, I quite liked the sound of that E-MU 0404USB
Enjoy!
