woot? Mine ran perfect, did you install the Asio-Driver as Admin?

Also I´ve read that the newer Asio Drivers suck balls, there are lots of people complaining, maybe you wanna downgrade and use the drivers that came with it.

with the new drivers SSL 2.4.1 ..theres a bug in the Serato ASIO instiller...so yes new drivers are not good

SSL 2.1 drivers ....yes that drivers works ...but not good & sound like sh#t at slow speed

as for the e-box..... that work better than my sl2...but still sound like sh#t at slow speeds
