Just wanted to say thanks to:
David NG McCallum, Johannes Taelman, Josh Steiner & Miller Puckette
for a quick response to my troubles.
In case anyone comes accross the same problems: Dont know if kx is incompatible with Pd ver.0.36, it kept claiming an invalid device ID when I tried to select the kx asio driver. Ver. 0.37 however, works a treat! Thanks for the suggestion Miller, I normally steer clear of beta/test versions so I might never have solved the problem.
Nice one!, Dougie

Cool... do you happen to get lower latencies than the 50 msec and up I get on soundblasters using MMIO? (you can find out using the latency tester in "pure documentation"/7.stuff/tools/latency.pd)
If it's lower latency than MMIO maybe I'll try again to get it running on my system...
thanks Miller

Hi
I have been using the kX ASIO driver with PD occasionally and it works great (version 0.35 and 0.36). With the latest kX version it can even do ASIO in 44.1 kHz even though it is a 48kHz card (44.1 kHz output only though). If I issue a listdev kX ASIO is listed as #4 but I have to specify it as -audiodev 3 when starting PD.
The great thing about the kX driver is the DSP window. You can create up to 16 outputs (and inputs) which all appear in the virtual patchbay where you can connect them to physical I/Os. Here you can also add hardware DSP effects which are MIDI controlable and even feed the signal back into PD (ok, I am a little biased since I wrote some of the filter plugins for the kX drivers).
I would recommend that PD is set to run at 48kHz with kX ASIO (it has to if you want inputs).
Startup examples: pd -asio -audiodev 3 -r 44100 -noadc -outchannels 8 pd -asio -audiodev 3 -r 48000 -channels 8
It is important that the kX ASIO sample rate matches the one you specify. Just right click on the kX icon in the systray and enter the settings sub menu. Here you will find the ASIO settings.
