Settings on your computer
Here are a few basic points to help you set
up your computer for best performance
with audio applications.
Do not run other applications. You will
probably use your computer for applica-
tions other than audio, but we recom-
mend that you avoid running other appli-
cations at the same time you are running
audio programs. Processing digital audio
places a considerable load on your com-
puter.
This means that if you are running other
applications (especially graphics or
•
Internet tools) at the same time as your
audio application, the processing may
not happen fast enough.
Certain devices such as network cards or
WinModems can cause conflicts with
USB processing. If you experience such
a conflict, you can use the Device
Manager to temporarily disable the
offending device.
If your computer has an IDE hard disk,
enabling Direct Memory Addressing
(DMA) will improve performance. In
Windows XP, this is enabled by default.
