The second checkbox is called “

Enable DirectSound for digital outputs

.”

This allows you to enable or disable the DirectSound driver for Mia’s

digital outputs only.

DirectSound

can only support a limited number of outputs, so if you have

several soundcards with a large number of outputs you may not be able to

find the output you are looking for. In this situation, you can disable some

of the Mia

DirectSound

outputs, and then when you restart you should be

able to find the

DirectSound

output that was missing before.

The third checkbox is labeled “

Lock DirectSound format

.” This allows

you to force the Mia DirectSound driver to playback files at a certain sample

rate and bit depth. It also allows you to lock it to stereo or mono.

This setting only applies if you are using software that uses multiple

DirectSound outputs simultaneously, such as the applications offered by

Stage Research. For this reason, it defaults as disabled.

NOTE: Do not confuse this with the “sample rate lock” feature found in the

Echo Console
