Buffer change wont save

[John Davey]

I'm using a Roland Rubix22 interface and ASIO4all  (3.6GHz 64-bit system, 32 Gb RAM).

VST samples are causing audio dropout, so I'm trying to increase the buffer size - but Cakewalk will not save the changes.

Any suggestions very gratefully received...

Does the Roland Rubix22 come with it own native ASIO drivers.  If so, then ditch ASIO4ALL

Roland does supply a driver for it. See https://www.roland.com/global/products/rubix22/downloads/

As a rule, interfaces with a factory written driver perform better with the factory driver.

Ah yes, much better! Silly me - many thanks :)

I use a tc electronic Digital Konnekt x32 as my "soundcard", (it is digital I/O only so it is paired with a tc electronic Finalizer Express A/D/A converter). Up until a few months ago it played nicely with Cakewalk. However, even after installing the latest available driver, TC Near, it takes dozens of tries to set the bit rate and buffer size in Cakewalk Preferences. It will frequently just ignore the selected bit rate and, even worse, actually changes the selected buffer size in the Cakewalk GUI without user input. It now takes me about ten minutes on average, repeatedly selecting the desired settings and hitting Apply until it finally settles on the chosen parameters. It this a Cakewalk problem, a Windows 10 problem, a tc electronic problem? Who knows? Maybe all of the above.
