drivers.
• Audio driver: here, select the driver corresponding to the sound menu that you
wish to use.
• Sampling frequency: here, choose the sampling frequency among those offered
in your sound menu. Note that a high sampling frequency will demand increased
processor performance on your computer.
• Latency (on Windows only, with Direct X protocol): here, you can configure the
optimal audio latency as it relates to performance of your sound card. Be careful
with this setting, as a latency setting that is lower than your system can support
can cause unwanted artefacts in the sound.
• Configuration panel (on Windows only with ASIO protocol): this button opens
your audio card's configuration panel, if it is available.
• Fader control: here, choose the fader control mode of the instrument. With
linear control, the mouse is moved vertically to assure the fader rotation; with
circular control, the mouse must trace an arc around the fader in order to modify
