Most of the dialogs can also be activated separately via the different menus and are
explained at a the corresponding position. In the following, you can find the
explanations on system settings directly via the system/audio dialog.
Audio setup (audio playback settings)
The installed sound cards are listed in the large window at the top of the dialog. The
"Device info" button opens a small dialog. There you will find information on the
sound card activated in the adjacent window (supported sample rates, manufacturer,
etc.).
Device address/driver communication
Here you can specify the bit resolution for addressing the audio driver for recording
and playback. Usually, resolution selection is automatic. If the output device is not
able to output at the desired resolution (e.g. 24-bit), Samplitude Music Studio 2013
automatically creates an appropriate lower resolution (dithered) which is then sent to
the driver. In certain circumstances, if the driver triggers error messages (because it
registers certain resolutions but can not actually play/record them), you can force a
16-bit driver address.
