Troubleshooting
• Are you recording or playing long continuous sections of
audio?
The audio data processing capabilities of your computer will
depend on a number of factors including CPU speed and
access to external devices.
On Windows computers, changing some settings as outlined
below can improve performance.
1
Click [Control Panel] from the [Start] menu, and double
click the "Sounds and Audio Devices" icon to open the
"Sounds and Audio Devices Properties" dialog.
2
Click the "Volume" tab and click [Advanced] in "Speaker
Settings." The "Advanced Audio Properties" dialog will
open.
3
Click the "Performance" tab. Set "Hardware Acceleration"
to "Full," and "Sample Rate Conversion Quality" to "Good."
Don't change these settings if you are not familiar with your
computer's operating system.
Check that the file system is set properly, and make sure that
you have a plenty of free memory (more than 128 MB). If the
wave files you are recording or playing are not too large,
changing the virtual memory settings can sometimes improve
audio performance. In some cases it might be necessary to
update your hard disk controller, device drivers, or BIOS.
Refer to your computer's support center or support page on
the web for more information.
• Try adding memory.
Adding more RAM memory can significantly increase your
computer's audio performance. Refer to your computer's
owner's manual for information on installing and setting up
extra memory.
There is a delay when playing a software
synthesizer via a MIDI keyboard (latency).
