8.1.3 Latency Issues
▪ Please check if your computer is suited for handling real-time audio processing without
dropouts. In general, it is not recommended to use laptops with shared-memory graphic
cards. You will need all the memory and processing power available for your audio software.
▪ It is not recommended to run the laptop on battery, as built-in power management systems
might slow the clock rate of the CPU in an effort to extend battery life.
▪ Disconnect all unused hardware (e.g., printer, scanner). This will increase the amount of
processing power available for your music software.
▪ Laptops are often equipped with built-in devices that disturb audio processing, most com-
monly Bluetooth transceivers, an Ethernet network adapter, or a wireless LAN card. You
might need to disable these devices while working with KOMPLETE KONTROL.
