Sony Vegas Pro crashes whenever i add audio effects

[✠CFalcon075✠]

whenever i try to add audio effects to audio, Sony Vegas Pro 14 tends to crash, it has never done that before and it really pisses me off, so whenever i add audio or a sound in Sony Vegas Pro 14 and then i click "apply non real time effects" or whatever it crashes, EVEN CLICKING THE ADDING FOR AUDIO EFFECTS, which really annoys me and confuses me since Sony Vegas Pro did not do this before, now it is starting to crash i have tried re-installing the program, and even verifying the program's integrity, still nothing has worked when i tried fixing the issue.

what even is this problem?, has any other user had this problem before and it is fixed?, please let me know how to troubleshoot this issue or whatever, would like to know, thanks.

P.S. i also deleted some stuff from regedit, like the ASIO and all of that, long story short i thought that was malware and other malicious and shady things, and i did use CCleaner and i did use Windows powershell on admin, and then putted in "sfc /scannow".

and it does sound like it should be good to go, but i don't know if Sony Vegas Pro 14 is now screwed up since i deleted ASIO, and ASIO is something that Sony Vegas Pro 14 uses or whatever, because when you're first launching the software it says it is loading some ASIO stuff, i don't know how to fix it please help.

what sound card do you use ?

Creative Labs SB 1095 5.1 X-Fi Pro comes with ASIO , and Vegas has never
like that ASIO , thus in Vegas menu : Options-->preferences-->Audio Tab
i always choose to use Direct Sound , Sound mapper , and i get 5.1 Dolby
from the Dolby Digital Live , all because of that sound card from Creative Labs
( 5.1 surround panning works too )

ASIO is a low level performance sound card driver .
Vegas has been known to crash while Vegas is Loading the ASIO at launch .
for me , i use Direct Sound driver as noted above , and sound works .

i never uninstall the ASIO .
i would only uninstall the ASIO if Vegas crashed during launch
while initializing\detecting the ASIO driver .

some specialty sound cards come with ASIO . i didn't think the SB 1095
was a specialty sound card , but , Creative Labs made an ASIO driver for it ,
in addition to the regular "Direct Sound" driver of windows

it is possible you have a True Specialty sound card that came with only ASIO .
if that be the case , them try on-board mother board audio , If available set
windows default in windows audio playback devices to motherboard audio
typically that would be Realtek . set to default communications device and
as the default audio device ,...along with Vegas setting of Direct Sound ,
Surround Mapper .

i really don’t know what sound card i do have, could you tell me how i find that one out?, i thought i had an integrated motherboard audio sound card, not a sound card that is meant for gaming or one like a creative sound blasterX AE-5, or something that is similar to it, i swear it has to be my registry ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ up or something, it cannot be my sound card.

well , you did mention ASIO drivers , you did find something .
windows 10 ?

on the Task Bar , right click Speaker icon and choose "Open Sound Settings"
next , on the right side in Blue Text , click "Sound Control Panel"
you are now viewing a list of playback devices .
the list here has 9 audio Devices ! count 'em 9 !

Speakers High definition audio motherboard audio ( Realtek )
Headphones High definition motherboard ( Realtek )
Digital Audio SPDIF from Realtek motherboard audio ( Realtek )
Digital Audio SPDIF from Realtek motherboard audio ( Realtek )
HD PVR2 , which was the AMD HDMI audio , but Colossus 2 takes it's place
Digital Display Audio AMD , from the AMD video card
Speakers Logitech headphones
SPeaker Sound Blaster X-Fi 5.1 Pro
SPDIF-Out Sound Blaster X-Fi 5.1 Pro ( this is the one i am using )
this is set to Communications Device and is set to Default Device
only 1 Green check mark , and it is on SPDIF-Out Sound Blaster X-Fi 5.1 Pro

in Vegas settings , preferences does NOT reveal the sound card , Vegas uses the
windows Default , that is selected from the list above .
Vegas does allow selecting ASIO or Direct sound drivers .
i use "Direct Sound , Surround Mapper" , in Vegas settings .

extra note :
i use headphones , usually Turtle Beach DXL1 with
creative Labs 1095 x-Fi 5.1 Pro sound card .
On the SPDIF gong to Turtle Beach DSS2 Dolby Decoder box .
( Best 5.1 audio , better then Logitech G633 .
DSS2 hardware decoder box is really good ) .
in Vegas , using "Direct Sound , Surround Mapper" , in audio Tab , preferences .

P.S.
windows 10 messes up a lot . i had to reinstall again . cause w10
damage the data structure\file systems , just code . BIOS couldn't
find a bootable drive . w10 is a joke . it is possible audio drivers
are improperly installed or improperly being recognized , sad to say .

best Tip ror mow , avoid ASIO drivers with Vegas .
do so in Vegas settings , menu : Options-->Preferences-->Audio Tab
and choose "Direct Sound , Surround Mapper" .

okay you’re giving off way too much information, all i needed to know is if i needed to go to Sony Vegas Pro 14 and go to options, and then edit what ever is in there so then it’ll work properly, thanks.

hopefully , yes . Vegas menu : Options-->Preferences-->Audio Tab
choose to use "Direct Sound , Surround Mapper" "Apply" then "ok" .

well it still does the same thing, i don't know what the hell it is but it's frustrating, anymore ideas?

[wakeme]

did you find what Sound Card you have ?

The only other idea is to select a different sound card in Windows Audio Control Panel .
Vegas only uses the windows default sound card that is set in Windows' .
yes , i have done that myself , as each sound card has drivers from each
sound card maker , thus some Audio Drivers may be more reliable\compatible with Vegas .

Logitech g633 headphones have always worked reliable with Vegas 14 .
on-board 5.1 Realtek always worked reliable with Vegas 14 .
creative x-Fi card works when using Direct sound , Surround Mapper as noted above .

when you set the sound card in Windows audio control panel , use Both settings .
Set as Communications device and Set as Default device .

look i went into device manager and i found only these things, look here. https://imgur.com/a/r5Vb7j4

so you have Nvidia and Realtek audio devices .
Nvidia is most likey audio on the HDMI .
Realtek could be SPDIF optical , or headphone jack , or up to 7.1 speakers .

RealTek is motherboard audio chip .
Nvidia audio is part of video card , just like AMD has HDMI audio on the video card .

i have used Realtek with 5.1 speakers on Vegas 14 , no issues here .
( 5.1 Typo , fixed )

you need to go into "Audio Control Panel"
audio Playback devices
to see which device is set as the default .

Vegas enumerates to use the system default device .

Device Manager shows what devices are in the machine .
right now , it is impossible to know which device is set as
the default . Device Manager does NOT reveal that information .

you can post images in Steam , in your Steam Profile , such as
Artwork . easy to "Show and Tell" , that way .

alrighty so i will go ahead and check that, i also want to inform you on another thing, since i saw this issue in the event viewer that Sony Vegas Pro 14 says so go ahead and check, i don't know if you know what it means but here's the image. https://imgur.com/a/mrymTLH

No , don't know .

here , running AMD on widows 10 . runs solid , with or without GPU .

i would be surprised if your onboard Realtek has ASIO drivers .
thus i would guess your present Default is Nvidia sound card .

note:
Vegas enumerates to use the default sound card that is set
to Default , in windows audio playback list . Once you set
that to Realtek , vegas will No longer display ASIO iniside of Vegas
menu Options-->preferences-->Audio Tab . Now choose to use
"Direct Sound , surround Sound mapper" driver . That's the driver choice
in Vegas that i use . Vegas has those drivers to choose from . Vegas
Never lets you choose a sound card . Choose your sound card in windows
audio playback list . windows audio playback control panel .

i have been assuming you are applying audio FX
to the Track Controller or to the actual audio clip itself . that should be working .

but it isn't, and you really need to help me to be able to solve the problem, so either email Magix for me and inform them on this problem and hope they'll get back to you or something, can stuff like this be really difficult?

The above is Magix tech support .

in Windows :
Control Panel-->Hardware and Sound-->Sound

you should now be viewing Playback devices .
i only have 1 Green Check Mark for the selected sound card
because "Set as default device" and "Set as Communication device"
ore Both "Set" for the sound card that i choose .

In Vegas , we can select only an API , such as ASIO or Direct Sound Surround Mapper ,
while the "Device Driver" comes from the Sound Card manufacture .

ASIO only appears in Vegas Audio Tab when a sound card comes with
ASIO drivers . As far as i know , on-board Realtek audio does NOT come with
ASIO drivers , thus when Realtek is the selected sound card , Vegas will NOT
show ASIO API . In that case , choose "Direct Sound Surround Mapper" .

Magix reads these forums . they can respond at any time .

alright i am trying to run Sony Vegas Pro 14 now, so anyways i really hope Magix can reply to this message, and i want to know if there was any option to go into the sound card thing under Sony Vegas Pro, which i mean i want to see if i can fix it through Sony Vegas Pro, and also another thing is that i found this error right under event viewer, it is Sony Vegas Pro 14 itself creating an administrator error in the event viewer's log, go and look at this. https://imgur.com/a/mrymTLH
