Most high-end cards allow you to change DMA Buffer Size in their control panel or mixing software.
If this is the case, we recommend checking out our open audio hardware guide by clicking here.
If you are forced to switch to the "MME (32bit)" Driver Mode under Edit > Preferences > Audio - Playback and Recording ( Options > Audio > Advanced in legacy products), then you may not be able to achieve ultra-low latency.
With built-in sound cards that come with computer's it is often recommended to use the "MME (32-bit)" driver.
Most Cakewalk products will try to access the WDM driver mode by default, but many times, built-in sound cards will have trouble in this driver mode.
Manufacturers are constantly updating drivers and there may already be more recent and more stable ones available.
Make sure you have the latest drivers from your sound card manufacturer's website and not from the disc included with your hardware.
If you start to experience distortion or audio dropouts, you may have to increase your buffer size setting for stability.īelow are some additional suggestions regarding improving latency performance: If you can get your buffer size down to 10 msec or less, you probably won't notice a delay. Ultimately, the smaller buffer size the less amount of latency you will here. This can typically be done from this same menu by clicking the ASIO Panel button or by opening your device's control panel from Windows. If this is the case you will need to adjust your buffer size/latency setting by going to your sound card's proprietary control panel.
If the Buffer Size slider is grayed out an you cannot adjust it, it is because you are using ASIO drivers.
Locate the "Buffer Size" slider and adjust it towards the left to Fast.
Go to Edit > Preferences > Audio - Driver Settings ( Options > Audio > General in legacy products).
Typically the easiest way of reducing latency is by doing the following: I'm getting a delay or latency when recording or performing synths Last updated on īefore you can get MIDI input or input monitoring to work with out a delay, you will need to make some adjustments in your software's audio options.
