7. Configuring the Digiface AVB
7.1 Settings Dialog - General
Configuration of the Digiface AVB is done via its own settings dialog. The panel 'Settings' can
be opened:
by clicking on the fire symbol in the Task Bar's notification area
The mixer of the Digiface AVB (TotalMix FX) can be opened:
by clicking on the FX symbol in the Task Bar's notification area
The following is available in the
Settings dialog:
ASIO Latency
USB error analysis
Configuration of the WDM devices
Configuration of the hardware
State of input
Display of current sample rate
Any changes made in the Settings
dialog
are
applied
confirmation (e.g. by clicking on OK or
exiting the dialog) is not required.
The tab About includes information
about the current driver and firmware
version plus four more options:
Lock Registry
Default: off. Checking this option brings
up a dialog to enter a password.
Changes in the Settings dialog are no
longer written to the registry. As the
settings are always loaded from the
registry when starting the computer,
this method provides an easy way to
define an initial state for the Digiface
AVB.
Enable MMCSS for ASIO activates
support with higher priority for the ASIO driver. Note: At this time, activating this option seems to
be useful only with the latest Cubase/Nuendo at higher load. With other software this option can
decrease performance. The change becomes active after an ASIO reset. Therefore it is easy to
quickly check which setting works better.
Sort ASIO Devices
Changes the order only of the ASIO channels when using more than one interface.
Limit ASIO to 32 Channels
Some software crashes when presented with more than 32 ASIO channels. This workaround
removes all higher channels, which can still be accessed and used via TotalMix FX.
