I just got a Behringer UCA222 per recommendation on this site. I believe I saw that there was a driver to enable ASIO access for it. The Behringer site just takes me to ASIO4ALL. Is that right?
In the ASIO setup dialog, I am unable to select it as input (see attached screenshot). I disabled system sounds, to no effect.
Surely this is something stupid, but I'm stuck for now. Thanks for any help.
Sorry to say, but the advice to buy the UCA222 was a bad one.
They should have advice you an interface with native asio drivers .
A very good and inexpensive audio device (with native ASIO) is a Behringer UMC202HD!!

I have been unable to get the UCA222 to work - I tried the drivers at https://www.123dj.com/audio/mp3s/uca222.html - Still no luck - Now I can't use the interface at all because the port was blocked by drivers at 123dj.com!! I uninstalled those drivers but the usb ports are still blocked - any ideas on how to unblock the ports so I can keep trying to get the interface to work?
--next day --> problem solved with device manager

That's weird - I'm using a UCA222 (which apparently is exactly the same as the UCA202 which has been reported multiple times here to be fine with Jamulus) and it was just plug and play for me - no problems.
Here's what my ASIO setup looks like. I have to admit I don't really understand how ASIO interacts with the hardware exactly though, so why it should look so different to yours I don't know.
Believe me, with good native asio drivers you're getting much better performance.
If you are a bassplayer or drummer, you know what I mean, with ASIO4ALL you will never play in time with the rest of the musicians.

Yes, although I've not tested that exactly, I run Jamulus on Linux with Jack when I play (and I'm a drummer) as using my Windows machine is more laggy I find. Maybe the new 3.5.0 vesion with the 64 samples config will work better (once enough servers start running 3.5.0 with -F).

Thanks for posting the link. The place I found it was on somebody's dropbox, so did not post that.
Heads up that installing it involves a sequence of plugging, unplugging, and rebooting. I ended up needed a few extra reboots before everything behaved, but it was worth it.

It is important to understand that the hardware recommendation itself (UCA222) is quite ok and on Linux or Mac it works well. On Windows you have two choices - the ASIO4ALL driver which works ok but not great, or the native driver which Behringer withdrew support for a while ago, and therefore removed from their download section.

Have you tried this page: https://www.123dj.com/audio/mp3s/uca222.html? (See the post just below yours)

).Searching again I found a video with a dropbox link to a driver and that resolves it. Very odd to not find it on the Behringer site, however.
Here is a link with the drivers for everyone with the same problem:

Yes, that's correct interpretation.
