Adjusting the audio latency
You can change the driver settings to adjust the
latency
of the audio. To adjust the latency, change
the
Buffer Size
in the driver settings dialog box.
Latency
is the time delay from when an
application plays back audio data until the sound is actually heard from an audio device such as
the PCR-A30.
1.
As described in
Opening the driver settings dialog box
, open the
“Driver Settings”
dialog
box.
2.
Adjust the driver buffer size.
The following setting will produce the shortest latency.
Set
“Audio Buffer Size”
to the far left (Min).
3.
Click
[OK]
to close the driver settings dialog box.
4.
Restart the application that is using the PCR-A30.
If you are using an application that has a function for testing audio devices, get it to perform
its tests.
5.
Play back audio data on your application.
If interruptions occur in the sound, repeat this procedure, and gradually increase the
buffer
size
specified in
step 2
until interruptions no longer occur.

Depending on the application you are using, there may be a
buffer size
or
latency
adjustment
function among the audio settings of the application as well. For details, refer to the operation manual
for your application.
