Play parameter
This menu
opens the window with the playback parameters.
Sample rate
: Here you can adjust the play rate, if the sound card allows so.
Device
: Here you can adjust the sound cards driver, which is in charge of playback, provided that the sound
card allows this. This becomes especially important if there are several sound cards in the computer.
?: Here the supported audio
formats of the sound card, as well as the sound card driver's information can be displayed. Furthermore
you can switch between driver types (MME and WDM). Adjust this setting only if you have problems
with audio playback or recording.
Autoscroll
: Here you can activate a feature that is especially useful when working with long projects: the graphic
turns over when the Position Bar leaves the visible part. So you never lose the overview. The scroll
operation requires a certain calculation time (depending on the processor, the graphic chart and the
resolution), so that the computer can become overloaded in critical cases, which produces dropouts
during playback. In this case, deactivate the auto-scroll mode.
Smooth / turn over
: You can choose between scrolling down a page or page turning.
Playback Buffer
: To allow a smooth playback of a complex project, the MAGIX Audio Cleaning Lab 11 sets out a data
buffer, into which current data areas are loaded. Hence, the whole project with all of its adjustments is
calculated in a step by step procedure.
You can determine the size of the buffer in "buffer adjustments", which will be used for the playback of
the whole arrangement or for the pre-listening of waves in the data manager.
A rule of thumb
: in the case of long waiting and loading times, the buffer should be reduced; in the case of drop-outs or
erroneous real time calculation of effects, the buffer should be extended.
Loop time: Here you can adjust the length of the endless loop, which will be used to play the project
with activated loop mode. The loop mode itself is activated in the transport control (please see the "
control consoles
."chapter).
