Whitelisting the ASIO driver

By default, we try to blacklist unwanted ASIO drivers to avoid potential errors. It can be that the interface in use has accidentally ended up on the blacklist, resulting in an inability for SoundID Reference Measure to communicate with it. This can be checked by following the steps in the blacklisting article - 

  • Close Measure
  • Go to:
    C:\Users\your username\AppData\Local\Sonarworks\SoundID Reference\Measure
  • Delete the blacklist file
  • Launch Measure and try again

NOTE! The user\AppData directory on Windows is hidden by default. To enable showing hidden files and folders, follow the instructions here: How to show hidden files Mac and Windows?
