e Cache
This line specifies where to
store the picture cache.
FlushWriteBeforeRead=<1 or
0>
Integer 0 The default setting causes
SONAR to perform disk reads
(for audio playback) before
attempting any disk writes (for
audio recording). Overriding
this value by setting it to 1
causes SONAR to attempt disk
writes first. This yields the best
results when you are attempting
to record a large number of
tracks at high latency.
FlushMultiple=<0 or 1> integer 1 This variable determines how
SONAR performs writes to disk
in cases where multiple inputs
are being recorded
simultaneously. The default
setting causes SONAR to write
all the data for all inputs all at
once, and then wait for the
entire set of writes to complete.
Overriding this value by setting
it to 0 causes SONAR to
perform each input’s write
separately, and wait for each
individual write to complete
before proceeding to the next
one.
ExtraPluginBufs<0 to no upper
limit>
integer 0 It instructs SONAR to set aside
extra audio data buffers, to
accommodate plug-ins which
do large amount of internal
buffering and therefore "keep"
data buffers to themselves.
Recommended maximum
setting of 64 or 128.
