ARTURIA – Analog Laboratory – USER’S MANUAL 61
The “Audio &MIDI Settings” window, for Windows … and Mac OS X
(Windows) AUDIO
DEVICE TYPE
Selects the appropriate driver for your audio device.
(Mac OS) OUTPUT
(Windows) DEVICE
Chooses which audio output Analog Laboratory will send sound
out of. Default is “Built-in Output” on the Mac; for Windows we
highly suggest to use an adequate ASIO driver for your sound
card.
TEST Send out a short sine wave tone to help make sure sound is being
sent out the correct device.
SAMPLE RATE Choose the sample rate; default is 44,100 Hz. Increasing the
sample rate increase the quality of sound, but adds a bigger load
to CPU.
AUDIO BUFFER
SIZE
Chooses the audio buffer size, displayed in samples and
milliseconds. Default is 512 samples. Decreasing this number
lowers latency, but adds more load to CPU. Increasing lessens
load on CPU but augments latency (latency is the delay between a
note played and actual sound output).
ACTIVE MIDI
INPUTS
Displays the available MIDI inputs that can be used to control
Analog Laboratory. For example, if you'd like to use an external
keyboard with Analog Laboratory, it can be selected here.
