User manual

: Buffer Size (Mac only)
Sets the size of the audio buffers. The lower the buffer size, the
lower the latency, but the higher the CPU load and risk of dropouts.
: Audio Upstream
Open this pop-up menu and select the audio upstream rate for the
signal sent to the studio (shown in kilobits per second). The higher
the rate, the better the audio quality for the signal that is being sent
to the studio, but of course there has to be sufficient bandwidth
within the connection to provide the goods. This setting determines
quality of the recorded realtime audio in the studio, but has no
influence on HD recordings (only applicable when connected to
the PRO version).
: Video Upstream
Open this pop-up menu and select the video upstream rate for the
signal sent to Cubase / Nuendo. The same rules apply.
: Video Device
Open this pop-up menu and select the video device to use for com-
munication with the engineer. You can send any video signal that
is provided by the operating system.
: MIDI Input
Allows you to select the hardware MIDI input device and port.
: MIDI Output
Allows you to select the hardware MIDI output device and port.
: MTC Output
The Performer application can send MIDI Time Code (MTC) via a
MIDI output port selected here. For MTC to be active, the MTC
Frame Rate must be set as well.
: MTC Frame Rate
Defines the frame rate for MTC (MIDI Time Code) to be sent, or
switches MTC output off. A MIDI port for MTC must also be set
with the MTC Output setting for MTC to work.
: Auto save
Set the time for the new auto-save feature. When connected, the
mixer and recorded HD audio files information is always stored
along with the Cubase / Nuendo project on the other side. You can
also transfer the Performer project along with the HD audio files as
you like (Dropbox, FTP, mail etc) and import it in Cubase / Nuendo
manually when you are off-line. HD recording is only available
when the VST Connect PRO plug-in is used. Usually, the project
is saved when the connection is closed. Auto-save makes sure that
the project is saved regularly so to help should the system crash.
When not connected, local settings (like faders, input and output
buses etc) are also saved on the artists’ computer such that they
