software generator loopback

Alfredo Prada:
Thank you Arthur and everyone else for your replies, I will start using the USBpre2 with 2 mics and see how it works.

That's not my experience, except with their ASIO drivers.
Unfortunately for me, the ASIO drivers crash EASERA Systune.
Actually, every ASIO driver I have crashes EASERA Systune.
Fortunately for me, the USBPre2 loopback mode seems to get me
everything I need using XP's native DirectSound drivers.

Just starting on this analysis stuff after 30 years in sound. It's interesting.

I use the Motu 8 pre and it works just fine on Systune.

I'm not sure about EASERA Systune and the specific requirements of that program, however the OP is talking about using the USBPre2 with Smaart, and I have confirmed with the folk at Rational Acoustics that it indeed does work and is synchronous for their purposes.  Maybe you have some conflicts on your computer with Sound Device's ASIO drivers?  I'm a Mac guy myself, I guess that with Windows, anything is possible!   :P

Now that I'm a SMAART owner, I've hit it myself, and found the solution thanks to Adam at Rational. With the internal generator and a USBPre2, you must use the ASIO drivers for it to be synchronous. Other Windows drivers toss out a different delay time on each playback.
