Audio Cards and Background Playback

When you activate playback or recording in WaveLab Elements, other applications cannot access the audio card. Likewise, if another application uses the audio card, WaveLab Elements is unable to play back.

You can run WaveLab Elements together with other applications and always give the active application access to the audio card.

Procedure

  1. Select File > Preferences > Audio Connections.
  2. Select the Options tab.
  3. Activate Release Driver.
  4. Do one of the following:
    • If you want to release the driver when WaveLab Elements is in the background, activate When WaveLab Elements is in Background.

    • If you want to release the driver only when Cubase/Nuendo is in the foreground, activate When Cubase/Nuendo is in Foreground.
