Actually I think it is a hardware function right on the breakout box for the fa66. I think there is something like a balance control, but it has been a couple of months since I've looked at it.

The fa66 doesn't. It's console is actually kind of limited. All we have are buffer options.Omar Binno Phone: (248) 444-9699 Email: omarbinno@xxxxxxxxx My Space: www.myspace.com/omarbinno----- Original Message ----- From: "Luis Elorza" <luiselorza@xxxxxxxxx>To: <ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, March 27, 2007 8:02 PM Subject: [ddots-l] Re: I/O buffer size and latencyin the soundcard's console. i have used many soundcards and they do have this function.----- Original Message ----- From: "Omar Binno" <omarbinno@xxxxxxxxx>To: <ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, March 27, 2007 3:43 PM Subject: [ddots-l] Re: I/O buffer size and latencyHow do you change the input monitoring to go through the soundcard?

The sonar default is (according to the help files) 64.I'm using the internal system drive for audio data(7200 rpm drive). I'm wondering what the best setting for the I/O buffer size would be to maximize latency and minimize dropouts. How does this variable affect disk throughput, and with this kind of system drive, what might be a better setting than 128KB?Currently, I can record at 24 bits with minimally perceptable latency with input echo on. Naturally, I'm trying for zero latency while recording audio, but I start getting dropouts when I start cutting the latency slider any further than 50% for the Edirol FA66(ASIO). Wouldn't recording at 16 bits improve latency(50%less data throughput involved with 16bits from 24bits).I like the headroom and quality that comes from 24bits, but I want that zero latency for obvious reasons. That's why I'm considering changing the disk I/O buffer size--it seems to be the only variable left that might improve performance.. ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq]** or send a message, to ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq]** or send a message, to ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq]** or send a message, to ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq]** or send a message, to ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq]** or send a message, to ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
