Windows 8 64-bit

Roland Duo Capture EX

The Fishman Triple Play 32-bit software works fine with my Roland Duo Capture EX and using the USB 3 port.  The Triple Play 64-bit software doesn't find the Duo Capture when I go into the software to setup the interface.

Any suggestions for a fix would be appreciated.

I tried switching to the USB 2 port

Should I re-install the Duo Capture drivers and try the USB 2 port again?

I'm pretty sure all the software and drivers are the latest versions.

Thanks.

I would

1)  Disconnect the UA-22, and download and run the

Roland USB Driver "Clean All" removal tool
http://www.rolandus.com/support/general_apps_tools/2500

2) - Reinstall the latest Windows 8 64bit USB driver for UA 22 ON USB2.0 port -
** Avoid connecting any USB audio interface or Roland/Boss Gear to a  USB 3.0 port on all Windows machines! **   

- and be sure to follow ALL step by step USB Driver installation instructions in the
"README_EN.HTML" file (its the most crucial file in the driver zip file, yet only .001% of UA-22 users  actually read this important file - a copy is below:

Cautions and Limitations

Sound interruption or other less-than-perfect outcomes may be experienced if your computer's performance and specifications are somewhat inadequate. The types of applications you use and the way in which you use them can also influence the experience you receive.
On some computers, the driver does not load correctly if the DUO-CAPTURE EX is already connected when Windows is started up. As a result, it will not be possible to use the DUO-CAPTURE EX via USB. If this occurs, wait until after Windows has started to turn on the power of the DUO-CAPTURE EX (or to connect it).
If the DUO-CAPTURE EX does not work correctly after resuming from Sleep mode, you should exit all applications that use the DUO-CAPTURE EX, and then turn the power of the DUO-CAPTURE EX off and on again.
If the USB cable is disconnected and reconnected while the DUO-CAPTURE EX is in use, or if the power of the DUO-CAPTURE EX is turned off, then on again, it may stop operating correctly. If this occurs, after resuming, you should exit all applications that use the DUO-CAPTURE EX, and turn the power of the DUO-CAPTURE EX off, then on again.
If your computer was experiencing a heavy processing load, such as when accessing a CD-ROM Drive or network while the DUO-CAPTURE EX was being used, the DUO-CAPTURE EX may no longer operate correctly. If this occurs, stop the playback or recording, then try starting playback or recording over again. If you are still unable to play back or record, quit all programs that are using the DUO-CAPTURE EX, then turn the DUO-CAPTURE EX off and then on again.
Audio clicks and pops may occur during playback or recording if you connect or disconnect other USB devices (such as USB memory) or turn another USB device on/off while using the DUO-CAPTURE EX.
In some cases, you may not obtain the expected level of performance if you're using a USB-connected hard disk at the same time as the DUO-CAPTURE EX. Do not use a USB-connected hard disk as the storage destination for the audio that you're playing back or recording.

About the items in the Settings dialog box

Audio Buffer Size
You can adjust the audio input/output buffer size. (By default, this will be the sixth position from the left.)
Decreasing the buffer size will shorten the latency and improve realtime performance, but might make it more likely that you will experience audio clicks and pops, depending on your computer's processing power and the song data load.
Increasing the buffer size will lengthen the latency, but will make audio streaming more stable, and it will be less likely for audio clicks and pops to occur.
In general, you'll probably want to decrease the buffer size for better realtime performance if you're playing a software synthesizer in real time, or if you're monitoring an audio input that's being passed through your DAW software.
Conversely, you can increase the buffer size to prevent audio clicks and pops if you're recording or playing back song data that contains numerous tracks and presents a heavy processing load.
By changing the buffer size as appropriate for your situation, you can obtain the right balance between realtime performance and audio streaming stability.
* Note!
If you use an application with an audio equipment test function, after changing the buffer size, carry out a test.

ASIO Buffer Size
This is the minimum buffer size that can be set by the ASIO application.
*   Depending on the application you're using, there may be other buffer sizes that can be set in addition to the minimum buffer size, and the buffer size shown here might not match the actual buffer size.
For details on setting and checking the buffer size, refer to the owner's manual for your application.

"Use Smaller ASIO Buffer Size" check box
If this check box is selected, the buffer size when using ASIO-compatible applications will be made smaller.
If you experience pops or clicks when this check box is selected, deselect this check box.
*   You must deselect this check box when adjusting the "Audio Buffer Size."

Elantric,

Thanks for all the driver information.  I also spent time on the phone and emails to and from Fishman support.  Frank and Matt at Fishman were very helpful.  Unfortunately nothing got the FTP 64 bit software to work with the Roland Duo Capture so I think what I will try now is to restore my Asus notebook OS back to original and re-install everything from scratch.  (Not the first time I have done this) This Asus notebook is used only for FTP and Cantabile.

Also, Frank at Fishman commented that, in his experience, the Focusrite interfaces and drivers provide the most dependable, easy to install, trouble free interface for FTP / PC setups.

Thanks again.

Bob

Yesterday I uninstalled the Duo Capture driver and installed the ASIO4ALL driver and now both the 32 and 64 bit FTP software work with the Duo Capture.

The funny thing is I have to set the switch on the back of the Duo Capture to TAB and run on the batteries or else it will turn off after a few seconds.
