M-Audio Fast Track Pro

I've been after a Guitar / Recording interface for a while now, and saw the M-Audio Fast Track pro going quite cheap at Musician's Friend with a considerable saving compared to buying it locally.. now this might be a real dumb ass question, but I was just wondering if this would be exactly the same spec unit as I would buy over the counter here in SA? with it being USB powered I suppose electrical power wouldn't be an issue, how about software licences etc? I'm I just being paranoid or should I just go ahead and buy it? ???

I was getting the same issue with the asio4all driver. It had worked fine when I first started using it but at some point developed this problem, reinstalling reaper and asio4all didn't help and neither did reinstalling the m-audio asio driver.

I get that error at times when another application is open that is using the driver (for example, a backing track on YouTube). I just close down the browser, then re-open Reaper (or Guitar Rig - where I also get the error) as the first application, then the browser or media player or whatever as the second app I open. It's as if the first application does something to the state of the driver that anything using ASIO doesn't like, the above work-around always works for me.

Yup. There is a reason every audio optimisation guide says that your recording interface should not be the default device in Windows.

ASIO doesn't share. It's designed not to. It's for stability and prevents other apps from trying to change sample rates or bit depths while the driver is in use by the recording app.
