Can't play youtube videos with Mixcraft up

Post by mixyguy2 »

Anyone run into this? Wondering if it's me or what. I get an "audio renderer error."

If you're using an interface make sure your Windows sound settings are the same as your interface. Right click little speaker open sound settings, right side is Sound Control Panel, make sure your I/O is default, click on it, go to properties click advanced. Most folks now go with 24bit, 48000Hz, make sure your interface settings match.

I get this too. You can either do one or the other, you can't run Mixcraft and play YouTube videos at the same time. I don't know what the fix is, or if there is even a fix for this.

Did you try above solution? If you have to switch your settings are wrong.

Hi,

If you're not using the Exclusive Mode option with WaveRT, then the solution mentioned previously is the answer.

Namely, make sure that the sample rate in Mixcraft's Sound Device preferences matches the sample rate you're using for Windows. (See Rolling Estonian's answer above).
