7. Configuring the Digiface Dante
7.1 Settings Dialog
Configuration of the Digiface Dante is done via its own settings dialog. The panel Settings can
be opened:
x by clicking on the fire symbol in the Task Bar's notification area
The mixer of the Digiface Dante, TotalMix FX, can be opened:
x by clicking on the circle symbol in the Task Bar's notification area
The following is available in the
Settings dialog:
x ASIO Latency
x USB error analysis
x Configuration of the WDM devices
x Configuration of the hardware
x State of input
x Display of current sample rate
Any changes made in the Settings
dialog are applied immediately -
confirmation (e.g. by clicking on OK or
exiting the dialog) is not required.
The tab About includes information
about the current driver and firmware
version plus four more options:
Lock Registry
Default: off. Checking this option
brings up a dialog to enter a
password. Changes in the Settings
dialog are no longer written to the
registry. As the settings are always
loaded from the registry when starting
the computer, this method provides an
easy way to define an initial state for
the Digiface Dante.
Enable MMCSS for ASIO activates
support with higher priority for the ASIO driver. Note: At this time, activating this option seems to
be useful only with the latest Cubase/Nuendo at higher load. With other software this option can
decrease performance. The change becomes active after an ASIO reset. Therefore it is easy to
quickly check which setting works better.
Sort ASIO Devices
Changes the order only of the ASIO channels when using more than one interface.
Limit ASIO to 32 Channels
Some software crashes when presented with more than 32 ASIO channels. This workaround
removes all higher channels, which can still be accessed and used via TotalMix FX.
