Config – Latency
Here you can choose between different buffer sizes. There are 2 different sections: First buffer sizes
from 128 samples (3 milliseconds with 44.1 kHz) to 2048 samples (48 milliseconds with 44.1 kHz).
Secondly there are the ultra latency settings: buffer sizes from 96 Samples (2,5 milliseconds) to 32
Samples (0.75 milliseconds). A lower latency is achieved by selecting a smaller buffer size.
Typically a lower latency is good when working with software synthesizers or when you process
audio signals from the audio inputs in realtime with your audio software. A smaller latency value
will however also cause more system load.
For most recording applications on a typical PC, select buffer sizes between 64 and 512. For a
typical faster Pentium 4 system, 128 or 256 are good values. Buffer sizes of 32, 48, 1024 and 2048
are normally used only in special circumstances, e.g. 32 is reserved for very fast and reliable ASIO
driver working environments only. The factory default is 512 to provide a basic level of
compatibility to different systems.
Config – Factory Default
Returns all MaXiO Control Panel configuration settings to the factory default.
Config - Always On Top
Enables to display the MaXiO Control Panel always over other windows. If this is not selected, the
active windows of other applications will be shown over the MaXiO Control Panel.
5.2 Input Section
The left section of the control panel windows shows the status and the control features for the input
channels. The main part of the display is the Input Level Meter for each channel. Above that the
Control Panel displays automatically if an external device such as the EX8000 is connected to one
of the E.D.I ports. Below the level meter, controls for each specific channel are provided (MME
device selection for recording, M.D.I input channel selection). A detailed explanation for each
section starting from top follows. Note that the input monitoring section is explained under 5.3.1
Master Section.
