Can't access all 4 channels of Behringer UMC404hd

Post by Snivonim » Sun Feb 16, 2020 3:19 am

I am running Windows 10 and Audacity will only allow me access to two channels at a time.
Initially, before I installed the Behringer drivers, it looked like the WASAPI device was going to allow 4 channels, but when it tried to record it was erroring on the device.
So I installed the Behringer driver and then was able to record but only in groups of two channels at a time.
I specifically got a 4 channel mixer because I want to be able to record my drum kit and mic, snare, kick, toms and cymbals on separate channels. I have tried all different possibilities of combos of drivers and lower sampling rates etc.. but I am stumped on how to do this in Audacity.
Please help, or let me know if this is even possible. TY!

I have the exact same device and am having similar problem. Audacity not recognising input 3 or 4 on the UMC404HD. Going to follow here. Hope you get it fixed.
