Audio Cards and Background Playback

You can run WaveLab Elements together with other applications, granting the currently active application access to the audio card.

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.

Procedure

Select File > Preferences > Audio Connections.
Select the Options tab.
Activate Release Driver.
Do one of the following:
- To release the driver when WaveLab Elements is in the background, activate When WaveLab Elements is in Background.
- To release the driver only when Cubase/Nuendo is in the foreground, activate When Cubase/Nuendo is in Foreground.
