TC Electronic Studio Konnekt 48 - Manual (Page 16)

WDM handling (Windows only)
WDM is Windows' audio driver system, and is used for
Windows sounds, media player and other applications
that don't support ASIO. An application such as
PowerDVD also uses WDM as audio driver system.
Setting up
To use Studio Konnekt 48 with WDM, you need to tell
Windows that this is your intension.
Go to:
Control Panel/Sounds and Audio Devices Properties/Audio
Select "TCNear WDM Audio" for both Sound playback and
Sound recording.
Studio Konnekt 48 is able to handle even WDM and ASIO
at the same time. You can listen to background music
from your media player or watch a DVD movie while
working on your audio application at the same time.
Via the Advanced tab you can select between different
speaker setups playback option.
Example: 5.1 selected as playback
TC Near WDM page
Depending on the sound recording and sound playback
options set in the Sound Recording an Sound Playback

setup for playback and a stereo setup for recording.

The example shows how Studio Konnekt 48 and the
Integrator plug-in allow integration of external digital
effects devices with your DAW.
Connections:
•
Reverb 4000 is connected via S/PDIF coax 1/2 on
Studio Konnekt 48
• Studio Konnekt 48 is connected to your computer via
FireWire
Let us take at closer look at the integration of the Reverb 4000 from the setup example on page 24.
Objects:
Reverb 4000 is an excellent reverb and we intend to use
this as a send effect in our DAW.
Please refer to the reference manual for your DAW for
detailed information about setting up send effects.
For each external effect, one instance of the Integrator
plug-in must be set up. Each of the Integrator instances
then represents one external effect.
