3.1 Installation for Windows
Block Size. Sets the buffer size.
From this menu, you can set the buffer size. Lowering the buffer size will
lower latency; however, this will also increase 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.
Loopback (Windows only). The ioStation 24c ASIO driver provides
two loopback streams to record audio from one application
to another. See Section 3.1.2 for more information.
