DirectWIRE Panel
Click on DirectWIRE on the MAYA44e control panel. The DirectWIRE dialog as shown below will
appear. DirectWIRE digital virtual wiring technology, developed by ESI, routes audio streams
internally within applications using standard audio drivers such as WDM, ASIO and MME, even
when they are running at the same time.
The number on the row represents the input or output port. The columns represent ins and outs (on
and off) of the respected drivers. Patch the virtual cables from one point to another as you drag your
mouse point.
INPUT section: It's used to route signals from the card's hardware inputs.
MME section represents general application's I/O: Ex.) WinAmp, WaveLab (non ASIO mode),
Cakewalk, Audition, Vegas, etc.
WDM section represents Multi-MME application’s I/O: Ex.) SONAR (when using WDM/KS),
PowerDVD, WinDVD, etc.
ASIO section represents ASIO application’s I/O: Ex.) Cubase, Logic, Reason, Nuendo, SONAR
(when using ASIO), Samplitude, etc.
GSIF section represents GSIF application like GigaStudio.
Note that some applications support multiple driver modes.
DirectWIRE Examples
Example 1. Recording from WinAmp (MME) to WaveLab (MME).
If you want to record what's played back in WinAmp, but don't want to hear the sound, you should
click the OUT button in the MME section so it'll change to OFF.
