16.2.3. Settings View: Buffers Tab
The control panel’s buffers screen allows adjustment of the ASIO buffers used by your ASIO
compatible DAW software.
USB Streaming Mode
Adjust this value to set the basic mode of operation of the LP-16 drivers.
ASIO Buffer Depth
Adjust this setting to configure the size of the ASIO buffer, measured in samples.
When using an older, slower computer, you may need to set your latency value to a higher
amount. This will reduce the overhead to the computer’s CPU and allow your DAW session to run
more smoothly, but will result in a higher amount of delay between the original incoming audio
signal, and the DAW software’
When using a newer, faster computer, the buffer depth can be set to a lower amount, and latency
will be minimized.
ASIO Dropout Statistics
This display field indicates how many “drop-outs” have occurred, if any, with the currently selected
buffer settings.
Dropouts indicate that your computer’s CPU cannot keep up with the demand that is placed on
it by the current buffer depth. If any dropouts occur, increase the size of the buffer depth and / or
change the streaming mode until no more dropouts are reported.
