Configuring The Digiface Ravenna; Settings Dialog - RME Audio Digiface Ravenna User Manual

7. Configuring the Digiface Ravenna

7.1 Settings Dialog

Configuration of the Digiface Ravenna 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 Ravenna, TotalMix FX, can be opened:
 by clicking on the circle 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 dia-
log are applied immediately - confirma-
tion (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 set-
tings are always loaded from the regis-
try when starting the computer, this
method provides an easy way to define
an initial state for the Digiface Ravenna.
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 de-
crease performance. The change be-
comes active after an ASIO reset.
Therefore it is easy to quickly check
which setting works better.
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.
Sort ASIO Devices
Changes the order only of the ASIO channels when using more than one interface.
