User Manual

You can also change the sampling rate of the OCTA-CAPTURE manually. Click of the SAMPLE RATE,

then select another sampling rate. In this case, you may also need to change the sampling rate of

the DAW software.

* The sampling rate cannot be changed during playback or recording, or when equipment is

connected to the COAXIAL IN (9/10) jack.

* When the sampling rate is switched, a small pop noise may be heard, but this does not indicate a

malfunction.

Viewing or changing the settings (Macintosh)

1. Use a USB cable to connect the OCTA-CAPTURE to your computer, then switch on the

OCTA-CAPTURE’s power.

2. Open the “Applications” folder, and double-click [OCTA-CAPTURE Control Panel].

The “OCTA-CAPTURE Control Panel” will appear.

3. From the “OCTA-CAPTURE Control Panel” menu, choose “Driver Settings.”

The OCTA-CAPTURE Driver Settings panel is displayed.

Audio Buer Size

You can adjust the audio input/output buer size. (The default setting is the ve step from the left.)

Decreasing the buer size will decrease the latency and improve the realtime response. However,

depending on the processing power of your computer and the complexity of your song data, this

may make clicks and pops during recording or playback more likely.

Increasing the buer size will increase the latency, but will make audio data transfer more stable,

decreasing the likelihood of clicks and pops.

If you’re playing a software synthesizer in real time or using your DAW software to monitor the

“thru” signal of the audio input, you should decrease the buer size in order to improve the realtime

response.

Conversely, if you’re recording or playing back song data that contains numerous tracks and imposes

a heavy processing load on your computer, you should increase the buer size in order to decrease

clicks and pops.

Change the buer size as appropriate for your situation in order to achieve a balance between

realtime response and audio data transfer, while avoiding problems such as clicks and pops.

* If you’ve changed the buer size, you must restart the software that’s using the OCTA-CAPTURE.

Alternatively, if you’re using software that has an audio device test function, execute the

software’s test function.

* Depending on the software you’re using, its audio settings may also have a buer size adjust-

ment.

Increase this buer size if you still experience clicks and pops during playback or recording even

after adjusting the audio buer size in your software.

* Some software does not allow you to adjust the buer size.
