Boots for Microphone Recording

Enables you to enable a 20dB boost to the record level for the microphone input
(MIC IN).  This allows you to compensate for less powerful microphones and
increase the record signal.

Use Single Mode DMA

Your computer system may support both Single Mode DMA as well as Demand
Mode DMA.  Demand Mode DMA provides a more efficient means of transferring
chunks of data between memory and a device.  However, If your system does not
support Demand Mode DMA, you must select Single Mode DMA instead.

DMA Buffer Size

Setting the DMA buffer size tells the CPU how much data to transfer between
memory and a device at one time.  If you specify a large size, it allows the CPU to
complete the transfer of data faster but increases the memory consumption.  The
default size should be 32 kilobytes(32K).  If you decide to change the buffer size, be
sure to make it multiples of 4K.
