 Bit Depth
This is the number of bits per sample. 16-bit is the default for CD quality.
Mixcraft supports bit depths up to 24-bit for ultra high quality. Only use 8-bit if
you have no other option. (8-bit audio is very noisy)
 Number Of Buffers
This is the number of audio buffers to pre-mix before starting playback. The
number of buffers determines audio latency. More buffers result in higher
latency. Fewer buffers result in lower latency but possible audio gapping.
 Buffer Size
The size of the buffer also determines audio latency. Larger buffers result in
higher latency. Smaller buffers result in lower latency but can cause audio
gapping. Buffer settings may require some trial-and-error to achieve the best
balance of latency vs. performance.
 Open Mixer...
This button opens the Windows mixer, allowing configuration of
inputs and recording levels for sound devices.
