We already had 64-bit drivers available and we wanted to ensure that our customers had every option available when choosing a computer to work with our audio cards.

The Fireface 800 driver, released in November 2006, was the first fully Vista-compatible driver (including 64-bit and signing) in the pro audio world."ĭavid Hoatson, Lynx Studio Technology (David): "We started our Vista driver development effort with the first beta release of Vista.

Vista includes lots of changes for standard WDM drivers, so when offering these a company is (unfortunately) forced to add the Vista compatibility, especially as MS forces it into the market by having it bundled by computer manufacturers. Matthias Carstens, RME (Matthias): "RME started in the middle of last year, when Vista and Vista 64 seemed to have come near the end of their beta phase. When did you start your Vista driver development, and why? Many musicians are now grumbling that their favourite audio interface doesn't yet have Vista-compatible drivers, or that it only has 32-bit ones, which prevents them from accessing more than 4GB of system RAM. Let's find out whether the interface manufacturers think Wave RT is worth the effort, how they have been faring with their other Vista audio drivers, and what they think of Vista's other new features. On the other hand, as I explained last month, only if you have Wave RT drivers can you access many of Microsoft's new Vista audio features.

Moreover, the ASIO standard covers both Mac and PC platforms, while the use of Wave RT drivers is limited to just one Microsoft PC operating system, which makes writing them a lot of work for a small proportion of potential users. Matthias Carstens, RME: "We at RME have no reason to think that Wave RT will ever be a serious professional audio solution simply because Microsoft is involved."While Cakewalk have already championed the new standard in their Sonar 6.2 update, Steinberg already have global support for their (now rival) ASIO driver format, and I suspect are therefore unlikely to offer Wave RT support for their Cubase/ Nuendo range. This is claimed to offer low latency and low CPU overheads, but requires both Wave RT drivers for your audio interface and Wave RT support in your sequencer application. In addition to having to write new Vista-compatible drivers and dealing with the possible fallout from DRM (Digital Rights Management) and driver certification issues, audio interface manufacturers also face a major new dilemma: whether or not to support Vista's new Wave RT (Real Time) audio driver format.

With all this in mind, we contacted a cross-section of audio interface manufacturers and audio software developers to gain an insight into what's been going on behind the scenes, what aspects of Vista they like and dislike, how Vista performs with their products, and what developments they foresee for the future. If they already have an audio interface and several audio applications, they don't want to be prevented from working by the lack of a single interface driver or incompatible software application, when the dozens of other devices on their motherboards are already supported.

Meanwhile, musicians who are interested in buying Vista to upgrade their existing PCs, or in buying a new PC that by now almost certainly has Vista pre-installed, have a rather different viewpoint. However, manufacturers and developers don't want to alienate their existing customer base, so they must embrace Vista. I'm sure interface manufacturers would prefer to develop Vista drivers for a new interface that might sell to those who have just upgraded to Vista, and I'm equally sure that software developers would prefer us to buy new Vista-specific audio applications. It's not difficult to see the situation from the developer's point of view: there's little extra revenue to be earned from writing Vista drivers, or in performing the necessary tests with audio applications that were written for Windows XP to see if they work fully and reliably under Vista. After all, they have all the hard work to do - developing new versions of software, writing new audio and MIDI drivers from scratch, and dealing with all the possible repercussions of such a major change. Our Round Table gives some of them the chance to air their views about the new OS and the problems and opportunities it presents.Īfter last month's SOS investigation of Microsoft's new Vista operating system, it's the turn of the developers to offer their opinions. If the transition to Windows Vista is a matter of concern for PC-based musicians, imagine how serious it must be to music hardware and software developers. Their Fireface 800 Vista drivers were released in November 2006.

RME were the first manufacturers to release fully Vista-compatible drivers (including 64-bit and signing) in the pro audio world.
