[RWP] ASIO Settings

[Chris Belle]

There is no one size fits all with asio.

A lot depends on how fast your computer's subsystems are, many computers just aren't up to the task of running audio low latency smoothly,
and it can also be down to the quality of the driver builds per your device.

Typically, you want a computer which has a dpc latency of 100 or less, ideally 30 or less, or you may expeience drop-outs, and crackling.

it's a timing issue rather than a power issue, a lelss powerful computer will perform better often than a more powerful one with a high dpc latency, which has to do with how much time drivers take in the kernel.
to process requests to the processor.

You can experiment with relaxing your asio buffers in your interface settings, which may help some,
if they are set very high now,
and the fact you are using a behringer product already makes it suspect,
it's not exactly known for quality or consistancy with their products, though they've saved the bacon of many musicians on a really tight budget.

but you often really do get what you pay for.

I have a little behringer mixer here which works ok,k it's not an interface, but I often have to jiggle jacks, and give it a smack to make it work and the buttons are a bit dodgy.

Was that way since the day i got it, but hey, I only paid 40 bucks for it so it wasn't worth sending back 'smile'...
Good luck.

  what is the best settings for "asio" drivers?

  I have a "BehringerFirepower FCA610",...I'm trying to get all, if not 
  most of the "crackling noise" out of the audio stream...

  I am wondering what is the best way to do that?

  More buffers, with less buffer size?,...Less buffers, with more buffer size?...

  I've been playing around with several settings, but I haven't been able 
  to eliminate all of the "crackling noise"...


  Thanks,


  Kevin
