Hi I remember seeing a guide to set up ASIO on foobar 2k but cannot find it

I am using a X-fi platinum's SPDIF output that goes to my amp/dac then to my headphones. I have the asio component added to foobar but not sure how to set it up. Do I need to go under output --> ASIO Virtual Devices and create a new one? OR do I simply choose SPDIF Out under the output tab -- 800ms buffer 24 bit and forget about making a new ASIO device? Creative console would be running Audio Creation mode with bit perfect etc.


Can someone please briefly explain how to setup foobar and asio correctly for this setup?

thanks

I just set up Foobar ASIO using this guide. Worked a treat.

Hope that helps.

Here is the thread, but its pretty dated now.

I use Mac now, so am out of date with Foobar, I do remember sometimes that I had to actually assign channel out to R and L in the Foobar ASIO set up. You probably can get better info though.

Output --> ASIO Virtual Devices/Add New/ Then under Output/Output Device select Asio.

Was it this one?

The first image looks scanned. I tried to use this first but it was much more convoluted than the first guide that I linked to.
