Any idea how to use my exau2i with VST host?

You can use the player as VST host. J River can do it, hre is a tutorial how to configure Foobar as a VST host: Using Allocator with exaU2I and Foobar 2000

Hello,
is there any chance to get one of these exaU2I Boards? exa's homepage says the board is discontinued. maybe any one in in this forum would sell his item?

best regards

Hello,
I've recently bought my exaU2I second hand. I'd like to download the Mac OS X drivers from the official website but it keeps asking me for login/pw... and can't find the way to create an account so I'm stuck.

Could someone give me a hint ?
Thanks

What is the difference between "exaU2I ASIO" and the "exaU2I ASIO DB"? The DB version has a later version number. Any significant changes?

I thought I had looked at all the sections of the exaU2I site. I missed the part that explains the "DB" ASIO driver. I found it tonight, so the question is answered.

Maybe wait for the new model? ETA?

Hi,
I guess it's a FAQ but can someone tell me where do I connect the DVCC and GND from exaU2I to Buffalo III ? Any pics around with an 8 channel setup ?

Thanks!

Hi Exa, will you be producing a new board/design as the last is discontinued.

Have a great day.

Regards, Greg

From the email I got from George, it looks like they are done with this part of thier business and have no plans for the next model. Its such a shame as the conversations I've had with George have been really good and the product is amazing. With any luck people will hastle them enough and they will produce us another board, at the moment I am building a digital pre-amp around one of these and will have to see if I can pick another one up seccond hand for another project later.

Chii,

That is bad news from George, as I was planning to buy version 2 of the board. Hopefully George still looks at this thread.

I wonder how much work it would be to add true DDS functionality to the U2I? From what I have seen the Exasound E18 and E20 appear to use the same FPGA as the U2I. If that is the case they already have the ability to do DDS with players other then their own. (JRiver etc).

George sort of promised to continue to work on DDS for the U2I a while back. While this promise was not explicit, it sure sounded like a good bonus at the time I was trying to decide if I would buy the U2I.

I would also like to point out that the DIY community helped Exa develop their products, including the Exasound line. Exa would not loose a lot of sales of the Exasound equipment, since most DIY people do it to save money anyway.

I am willing to pay a reasonable price for an update that supports DDS. I love the sound I get from the U2I. It has been rock stable and George has done a good job of supporting it in this thread.

Assuming I am correct about the FPGA and there is not a great deal of effort involved in an update. I ask George to consider an update to the U2I to give us true DDS playback.

Thanks

John
