Can't get multi tracks on Behringer UMC404HD on XP

Post by Gre404 »

reaper not showing 4 channels.jpg
I downloaded and installed UMC Driver 2.29.0 for Windows XP + Vista. When recording using Reaper I never get the option to choose which of the 4 analog inputs to assign. Instead I see selections talking about "force mono" etc.I got a single track Any tips on what is going wrong? Thanks

Hi @Gre404 , welcome to the forum. That 2.29 driver is really old, but was the last version for the WinXP (which is also really old). Is there a reason why you are using an old OS (WinXP)? What version of Reaper are you using?

What do you get when you press ASIO configuration?

I have a win10 laptop and Focusrite interface which I almost never need moving so they have too many cables to easily move. That's what I normally use for recording practice. Recently it became better to practice elsewhere and rather than buying a standalone recorder allowing at least 4 inputs I thought I'd try to use an old, but pretty decent Laptop that wasn't being used for much of anything. So I got this Behringer since I read it works with XP. I'm using Reaper 6.43/Win32 on the XP Laptop. Thanks.

Just retried it and although I don't have a few things plugged in it now shows the inputs. Nothings changed except it's running off the USB ports power instead of it's power supply and I don't have a sampler output going in. Maybe the main thing is it's been restarted several times since yesterday when I had the problem. Going to go test in the practice room soon. Thanks.

I took it in the practice room and couldn't believe it when it was back to the same problem. I experimented with booting with the 404 and usb stick in, with them out and plugged in later, with only the 404 and no usb stick but nothing changed. Now back in the regular space but still the same problem. I can't imagine why it seemed to behave normally once but not again.

Got help on Reaper forum. I had to right click on the Arm Record button. It was a different series of steps compared to what I was doing on win10 which brings up the input/fx button as soon as I click arm record.
