    Hey there. I´m using a MOTU Ultralite Mk3 and Pinguin Audio Meter Standard and it works fine here. Pinguin only sees inputs so you need a way to route an output to an input. One way is to plug-in manually but I dont recommend it. The Ultralite has one output already routed internally to an input called Return so you can make Pinguin see this input and analyze just about anything. Maybe other audio interfaces offer similar functionality. Hope it helps. Would be great to see the PG AM PRO version around here, right? The best spectrum analyzer yet, for me anyway.

    You can use:

    VAC 4 - Virtual Audio Cable 4.10
    info

    or

    Virtual Audio Stream
    info

    I guess not many interfaces offer it but you should look for interfaces with a return path or an assignable "mimic" option. I think all MOTU interfaces have this stuff.

    the problem is, i dont know how this functions calls, how should i look for an interface when i dont know what interface has this function

    in the last time i have bought the m audio profire 610 for 310eu but it dont works, i have searched hours on google, seems that nobody has got this interface with pinguin to work

    maybe i have to buy an motu interface, i know from some guys that it works with RME too, but these interfaces are too expensive at the moment for me

    ´+#-, try to read the instructions/help file from VAC 4.
    You has to configure correctly, if doesn't, don't work....
    remember to configure VAC and run the "Audio Repeater" to duplicate the audio.

    Sorry for delayed time...

    example:

    Winamp > directsound > LINE 1 (Virtual Audio Cable)
    Pinguin Audio Meter > Device > LINE 1 (Virtual Audio Cable)
    At these point u see the meters working

    On Pinguin Audio Meter, all windows are to stay the title text in CYAN. NO RED. If the text of the windows are RED = OFF.
    Right click mouse button, and select ON on every windows.

    But no audio is listen, now:
    Audio Repeater > Wave in > LINE 1 (Virtual Audio Cable)
    Audio Repeater > Wave out > YOUR MASTER OUT
    Press START for listening

    If audio is playing, FL and FR show the vu meters moving.

    With an ASIO wrapper like ASIO4ALLL, you can use VAC in ASIO supporting applications.

    VAC 4 Configuration

    [​IMG]

    Winamp or your software to >>> Penguin
    You has to select the WINAMP output to LINE 1, and Penguin Device LINE 1

    NO AUDIO IS LISTEN !! but penguis has to work....
    if no work, check every windows, right mouse click, ON.

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    After, you need to make the repeater, MME or KS
    WAVE IN > LINE 1 (VAC)
    WAVE OUT > YOU MASTER OUTPUT !!!!! in my case FIREBOX OUT MAIN 1/2
    Press START, to make the connection.
    If ok you will see the FL and FR vumeters moving.

    Here work perfect with the mme and ks.
    Remember to change the buffer and priority. In the image is by default.

    At these point, u has to listen too.

    :dunno:

    2.3 b 600 - use AiR kg
