• “Playback pre-roll” checkbox: When selected, all Play commands start playback a little
earlier. The exact pre-roll value depends on the current plug-in delay compensation
value. This option ensures that transients that fall exactly on the start position are
played back correctly. If this option is unselected, transients that fall precisely on the
start position can be missed or seem to fade in.
• Low Latency Mode checkbox and Limit slider: When you enable Low Latency mode
by checking this box or clicking the Low Latency Mode button in the control bar, the
Limit slider determines the maximum amount of allowable plug-in delay. In Low Latency
mode, audio is routed around latency-inducing plug-ins to ensure that all delays (across
the entire signal flow of the current track) remain under the Limit slider value. This is
useful when you want to play a software instrument with several latency-inducing plug-
ins inserted in the channel.
Sampler preferences
You can configure the way in which the Sampler instrument searches for audio samples,
stores audio samples, uses virtual memory, and more, using these settings. The Sampler
preferences window contains two tabs with configuration options: The Misc tab for
miscellaneous settings, and the Virtual Memory tab for virtual memory settings.
The Misc tab contains the following preferences:
• Sample Storage pop-up menu: Determines how Sampler handles the bit depth of
samples. Choose one of the following:
• Original: Loads samples into RAM at their original bit depth. These are converted to
the internal 32-bit floating point format of the host application on playback.
• 32 Bit Float: Samples are stored and loaded as 32-bit float files, which removes the
need for real-time format conversions. Sampler handles 32 bit float samples more
efficiently and can play back more voices simultaneously.
