performance demands on your computer. In general, you will want to set the buffer size as low as your
system can safely support. If you begin to hear pops, clicks, or distortion in your audio path, try raising the
buffer size. When adjusting the block size, the Safe mode will automatically change to provide the best
performance.
Power User Tip: Your Revelator io44 features built-in zero-latency monitoring so you can leave your Block Size
high and the performance demands on your computer low. In general, you can use the default block size, but if
you're using an older computer that is having trouble keeping up, go ahead and raise this setting. Experiment to
find what works best for you!
Device Mode (macOS only). By default, your Revelator io44 presents itself as a single audio interface
with 8 inputs and 6 outputs. But when you're ready to use the Loopback audio streams to record or route
audio to multiple applications at the same time (like the output of a Skype call to the audio input of your
Facebook Live stream), that's where Multi Mode comes in. In this mode, your Revelator io44 will show up
as 3 different devices on your computer: Revelator IO 44, Revelator IO 44 Stream Mix A, and Revelator
IO 44 Stream Mix B. Each of these devices has 2 inputs and 2 outputs. This is great for applications like
Skype that only allow you to use the first two inputs and outputs of any audio interface. PreSonus recom-
mends that you use Multi mode for the best experience. Note that in Multi mode, sample rate options are
limited to 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz. For more information on how loopback audio works and how to use it for
your podcasts, streams, and more, see the
Power User Tip (for Windows Users): On Windows, Revelator io44 is always in Single Mode. If you are using
WDM for applications like Skype, your Web Browser, etc., look for the Revelator IO 44 name in respective applic-
ations' audio setup menus. If you are using ASIO for applications like Studio One and other DAWs, look for
"PreSonus DSP USB" in respective applications' audio setup menus.
