For use in the AUX, track or master without low latency, the setting of 8192 or lower is
recommended on faster systems (from Pentium 1800 or Athlon XPand higher) for an
acceptable response latency.
For use in low-latency conditions, the value can be reduced to 32 on faster systems (from
Pentium 2800).
The value "optimal latency" adjusts the internal block length in such a way as to keep the
latency as low as possible without influencing the performance too much.
The value "optimal latency" adjusts the internal block length in such a way as to keep the
performance as high as possible without raising the latency too much.
Hint: It doesn't make sense to set a value smaller than the set buffer size. If the value
corresponds to the ASIO buffer size, the room simulator processing is latency-free (only
with "higher quality").
The FFT filter cannot be used at latencies less than or equal to "4096". With homemade
impulse responses you have the opportunity to destructively use the FFT filter on the
impulse response before calculating the room simulation.
When using the room simulator for destructive processing, the block length is raised
internally as processing with a lower latency would in this case result in an avoidable
increase of the necessary CPU operations.
Retrieve, Set: Saves and sets the quality options globally. Please note that when using this
in the object and in the track, different settings can be applied for AUX insert effects or
master.
Bypass: By pressing the "Bypass" button you will hear the original signal.
Quality
"High" setting: Doubles the quality
Internal block length
Low internal buffer sizes (2048 samples): Increase in the internal block length by ca. 50 per
cent.
Very low internal buffer size (128 samples): Increase in the internal block length by ca. 150-
200 per cent.
Overview of the impulse response parameter
Length of the impulse response
If the length of the sample used as an impulse response exceeds a power-of-two, the CPU
load doubles.
The performance required subsequently doubles whenever the following impulse response
lengths are exceeded:
