Subject:Error when trying to record Posted by: Djipy Date:7/17/2002 9:13:58 AM I have installed Acid Pro 3 on a computer with a PCI sound card (ES1371 compatible). (I don't know much more about this sound card) When I try to record in Acid, I receive the following error message : "The record device Creative Sound Blaster PCI does not support the current input format." I have tried to change some settings but I've got the same error. Any ideas ?
Subject:RE: Error when trying to record Reply by: Iacobus Date:7/17/2002 3:53:28 PM Did you try changing the attributes to 16-bit/44.1 kHz before recording? ACID Pro can do up to 24-bit/192 kHz but that soundcard you're using cannot. Iacobus
Subject:RE: Error when trying to record Reply by: Djipy Date:7/18/2002 3:45:45 PM Yes, the settings are 44.1 kHz 16-bit stereo in Acid. However, I can record in Cubase SX without any problems with the same sampling values. That's why I would like to understand what's happening (although this soundcard is for tests only). Any clues are welcome !

If that doesn't work, try getting updated drivers or reinstall your soundcard drivers if possible. Might want to also consider completely uninstalling and reinstalling ACID Pro as well.
