I don't understand why Waves has to be so intrusive and just act like any other normal plugin without taking over the entire audio configuration of your machine and screwing it all up.Įdit: I went into "open sound settings" (this is win 10 btw) by right clicking the speaker in the notification area and hitting "open sound settings" and there, under "input" I noticed the default input device had also been changed to "Line in / Mic (Waves Soundgrid)" so I changed it back to the normal "Microphone Array (Realtek audio)" and now I can hear audio from reaper again.Didn’t think to post this for some reason WASAPI error: could not find input device format

There was an error opening the audio hardware: But now when I start Reaper, I get the error about WASAPI, I tried changing it from "shared mode" to "Exclusive mode" but now I get the error: The first thing I noticed was the windows default audio device was changed to "Speakers (Waves Soundgrid)" and I changed it back to "Speakers / Headphones" because I couldn't hear anything. Sorry about the necro bump, but this just happened to me after attempting to install the waves suite. Would like to get the normal modes working though. Following the guide you can indeed record anything such as YT with WASAPI, just as you can with ASIO with the right settings. However I was merely using this to enable sound from Software synths, WAV files from inside Reaper without muting output. For example, this might be a YouTube video that you are currently listening to over your speakers. To record whatever you are currently playing in Match those of your sound device, as set in theįinally, you simply add a new track and arm it for Your block size and sample rate will need to

This is not recommended for beginners.įirst, create a new project file. This requires the use of feedback looping, so you should proceed withĬaution beyond this point. To record live Windows output (for example, subject toĬopyright constraints, a YouTube video). The "shared loopback" (CAUTION) mode works.
