Buer Size
Your goal is to achieve the lowest latency possible in your DAW
software, but with glitch-free audio performance. Smaller buer
size results in lower latency, however, also increases the demands
on your computer, which can result in clicks, pops or other audio
artifacts. Start with a lower slider setting here and, if you encounter
audio performance issues, come back to this panel and move this
slider to the right incrementally to remedy the problem.
Click the Apply and OK buttons when your Helix Control Panel settings are complete
to return to your DAW software. Please also refer to your DAW software's documenta-
tion for more about its own specic audio device, buer and project settings.
