User Guide 48ProFire 2626
Problem: Windows users experience high latency and limited performance when using Steinberg
Nuendo or Cubase SX.
Possible Cause: Cubase SX and Nuendo may be using the default “ASIO Multimedia Driver.” While this driver
will allow you to use ProFire 2626, it does not provide the best possible performance with the interface. In the
Cubase SX/Nuendo Control Panel, make sure that “M-Audio ProFire ASIO” is selected as your audio device
driver.
Problem: Some parameters within the control panel are grayed out and inaccessible
Possible Cause: The computer is streaming audio which prevents certain settings from being changed until
audio streaming is stopped. In many cases stopping audio playback within any open applications will allow
these settings to be changed. In some cases however, applications have to be quit for audio streaming to
stop. If you have quit all applications and parameters are still grayed out and inaccessible, make sure there is
nothing running in the background or in the system tray which could also be streaming audio.
