In principle, the larger the buffer, the safer playback will operate on
slower systems or at full load. The number of simultaneously playable
tracks increases. However, this reduces the reaction time of the PC,
which can particularly disturb processing of real-time effects. We
therefore recommend searching for an optimum compromise for your
system.
When recording and playing simultaneously (record while play), the
record and play buffer have to be the same size.
HD buffer: 8000 samples buffer are the default preset. This buffer is
applied during playback directly in HD wave projects. Test smaller
values here for even faster reaction times!
VIP buffer: 16000 samples buffer are the default preset for use
during playback of virtual projects. Since error-free playback is
usually more important than fast reaction times, this value should be
raised to 16000 or 32000 during playback occurs from various
tracks. When playing virtual projects or using the mixer only these
settings are relevant.
Test buffer: 8000 values are the default preset. This buffer is only
used for real-time preview of effects from the "effects menu".
Buffer number: Specify here how many of the buffers described
above should be used (between 2 and 10). More buffers increase
reliability, but also increase the memory requirements. Reaction times
become longer. You can check the current buffer usage levels in the
status bar to the bottom right.
