#Pro tools cannot initialize focusrite usb asio driver#
You can see in this article that ASIO4all makers do not recommend installing the manufacturer driver for your USB unit, same as we don't recommend installing their software. Please always select the correct device driver for your Focusrite Interface, which should read "Focusrite" or the unit's name such as "Scarlett" "Saffire" "Clarett" etc.įor more information on ASIO4all please see the ASIO4all FAQ page here. Using the WDM Driver or Generic Microsoft driver for that audio device will have much slower latency and performance than a native ASIO Device Driver. Thus when using ASIO4all you are bypassing the manufacturer's own ASIO Device Driver written specifically for that hardware. This means that ASIO4all connects to an audio device's own WDM Driver or the Windows Generic USB Driver and allows that driver to appear as ASIO to your DAW.
(Example Realtek or Nvidia HD Audio, SoundBlaster cards) ASIO4all is designed for units that do not have native ASIO Device Drivers, like your computer's built in audio. The proper setting is simply to set the Default Playback Device(in Windows Sound Properties) to the on-board sound card. Disabled is not exactly the proper setting. The Focusrite Interfaces all come with a native device specific driver that includes both ASIO and WDM driver types. Re: pro tools could not initialize the focusrite usb asio Some of this could be caused by having the focusrite disabled in Windows Sound Properties.

We do not recommend using ASIO4all in your DAW for your Focusrite Interface. We do not recommend using ASIO4all in your DAW for your Focusrite Interface.
