ASIO driver support #59

Hello First of all - excellent piece of software & I'd love to use it in some home parties.

I'm using Traktor Kontrol S4 MK3 DJ controller. Can MilkDrop listen-to and visualize audio on the same PC while using ASIO output driver in Traktor Pro 3 software? I tried Voicemeeter and other ASIO loopback solutions but without success. Only workaround I found so far is to link master output to one of the line-in connections > import it as audio source in OBS & enable monitoring function. But that eliminates the normal use of this channel.

I know there's a paid version for Patreon supporters but I want to be sure that it supports ASIO output before subscribing. Not a huge expert so I'm thinking maybe this is some HW/SW limitation of ASIO & cannot be bypassed.

Hi, I'm not too sure because my audio setup is pretty simple. Did you try with a virtual audio cable? https://www.patreon.com/posts/how-to-use-your-98362918

Thanks for the quick reply! Sure, listening to what PC Mic hears is an option. But in different environments it could get too loud, too quiet or distorted which affects the visualisationss, their intensity & "accuracy".

For now I'll sacrifice one of four DJ controller mixer channels serving as an input linked with RCA master out. Then I can configure windows to listen to the audio from this channel on a virtual audio cable. If I really won't be able to live with 3 channels, I can buy a cheap USB audio interface, link it with master and listen to that device on a virtual cable again.

Thanks for reviving MilkDrop and best of luck improving it!
