Topic: Volume too low in Pianoteq
I have an issue with Pianoteq that I hope you guys can help me resolve. I am currently using Pianoteq Stage on my Windows 10 PC with a Casio Privia PX-850 as a controller. I am using the computer's on-board sound card with the ASIO4ALL driver. The problem I have is with the volume in Pianoteq: it is quite low and unplayable, even when I set my computer to maximum volume. I can listen to other sources (Spotify, iTunes, etc.) with sufficient volume on this computer. It is only with Pianoteq that I can't get enough volume. As a test, I tried Pianoteq with the exact same settings on my 2015 Macbook Pro, and the volume is more than sufficient. I am guessing that the problem is due to the ASIO4ALL driver, because:
1) I can get sufficient volume through my Windows PC using other sources (iTunes, Spotify, etc.)
2) I can get sufficient volume using my Macbook Pro with the exact same settings in Pianoteq
Anyone else run into this problem? I am thinking that I may need an external sound card that has a native ASIO driver. Before I spend money on a new sound card, are there any recommendations on things I can try? What can I do to fix this volume issue on my Windows 10 PC?
Thanks!
