Using Apollo Twin 3.0 USB for Windows with Adobe Audition - Are these settings correct?

Hi.
I'm not sure if my settings in Adobe Audition are causing me latency issues and noise interference.
Can someone who uses the two together please advise if these settings are correct?
Let me know of any other screenshots of settings that would be helpful.
Thank you in advance.

  • Disable "Realtek High Definition Audio" either from Device Manager or BIOS. That's your onboard audio device from your motherboard and you don't want two devices and drivers to clash.
  • Set "Universal Audio Twin USB" as your WAVE OUT device.
  • Set lower buffer size in your UAD Console settings (128 for example)
  • Reboot and try after these steps.

Hope this helps, cheers!

Thank you for your response. I really appreciate the suggestions.
The reason for my current speaker Output settings is that I prefer to play sound through my computer sound card, which is where I have my studio monitors connected. My rationale is that I don't want to always have the Apollo Twin turned on in order to listen to computer content on my speakers.
I was more concerned if I have the correct check boxes checked in Device Properties options.
I will definitely reset the buffer size in my UAD Console settings, as you suggest.
Thank you,
Andrew

You are welcome!

Yes, I understand why you keep playback through onboard audio. I suppose you are a Voiceover artist, yes?
I have done VO work myself earlier and have recorder thousands of VO takes with other artists in my studio. I can assure you it's 10X better to use input and output on Apollo.

As for the Adobe Audition settings - I am not sure. My guess is this is older AA version you're using (3 maybe?) and I always update to the latest version which has different settings.

Maybe @GeorgeWhittam can help?

Don't use PC output jack for playback, it's noisy with more THD than the Apollo's very high quality outputs. Just don't.

Question on your set up with Audition. Do you have a source, be it yourself, on getting the Apollo (USB 3) ASIO drivers to work with Audition. I've dealt with other hardware, coming up with a "driver not working" condition, however this seems to be more of an issue. When you can, thanks.
