ASIO Control Panel
If the driver supports it, this button brings up a window with settings specific to the
audio card.
• For the ASIO Multimedia driver, see page 369 for more info.
• For the ASIO DirectX driver, see page 379 for more info.
• For other ASIO drivers, see the documentation that came with the card/driver.
Latency indication
Depending on the audio hardware and drivers, there will be different latencies (de-
lays) involved when recording and playing back audio. This is especially trouble-
some when you are monitoring what you record in VST, since the monitored sound
will be delayed a substantial amount. However, the recorded audio will not be af-
fected, since VST takes the latency into account, and adjusts the timing of the re-
corded audio accordingly.
Users of Windows Multimedia compatible audio cards may want to note that you
can reduce the latency by adjusting buffers in the ASIO Multimedia Setup window.
However, we do not recommend you to do this unless you are absolutely sure of
what you are doing.
● Using DirectX instead of the Windows Multimedia system will also result in
lower latency times. This can be useful if you find that the latency makes it
hard to perform an accurate manual mix (since fader and knob movements
are slightly delayed). However, since DirectX is restricted to audio playback
only, this method will not remedy the audio monitoring delay. See page 379.
Sample Rate
This setting determines the audio quality of your recordings. The higher the value,
the better the quality, but when you raise the value, each recording also uses up
more disk space and computer processing power.
You should not change the Sample Rate setting if you already have files in the Pool
(which you will have if you have made any audio recordings at all in this Song).
Audio Clock Source
If the card and its driver supports it, this pop-up allows you to select an external
source to which the audio playback can synchronize its sample rate. See the docu-
mentation that came with the card for details.
● If you use the ASIO Multimedia or DirectX driver, only the “Internal” option is
available.
