Axe I/O: Play with Amplitube over Spotify/Youtube

[marcroth]

Hi,
I am considering buying an Axe I/O, but wondered whether it's possible to play through Amplitube (standalone or as FX in Reaper) while in parallel listen to Spotify/Youtube from Win10 through the Axe I/O. This works perfectly with the iRig HD2 (Amplitube through Asio iRig, Spotify through the iRig windows driver, all to the one line out).

I hesitate, as I've read posts on Amazon, Thomann, and this forum saying that this doens't work with Axe I/O. I would find this strange, as with the multiple line out channels of Axe I/O one should be able to route the different sources on the device (without using VB-Audio Virtual Cable).

It would be great, if anyone who owns the device could share their first-hand experience on the matter.

Thanks Marc

Thanks, but well, I don’t want to use the Asio4all (but the native driver) and with IRig HD 2 it works without VB-Audio. Thus the question here. Marc

The FAQ mentions the iRig ASIO driver. If the FAQ didn't help, IK Support can help you at http://www.ikmultimedia.com/contact-support

Thank you.

Thanks Peter, yes, the FAQ implies that with the iRig ASIO driver it's not an issue, which I can personally confirm for iRig HD2. However, it seems AXE I/O uses yet another driver than the iRig Asio (at least it's not in the list).

Can no-one give me a clear-cut answer whether it's possible with AmpliTube to play along to music on Windows using the Axe I/O with the Axe I/O driver? I don't want to go back to Asio4all, was not stable for me. Else I better stick to iRig rather than upgrading to an Axe I/O.

I gave up contacting IK Support, they've never answered my question (been waiting for answers for months).

Did you install VB cable? I have the same issue and can't make it work, even with the IK instructions.
