Buffer Size Module? (Solved)

[John Ritter]

I'm curious what people think of this idea. I hear all the time that you lower the ASIO buffer when recording to and raise it when mixing to avoid the dreaded crackling.  I've experienced this myself and wonder if Cakewalk should create a module for the toolbar to change buffer size without having to go into preferences and the ASIO panel.  Do you think there's a reason they haven't?

I think the problem is buffer settings are made in the ASIO control panel of your audio interface. Not Cakewalk. 
So if you add the short cut for the ASIO control panel to the  bottom systems tray this will be what you wanted. One click away.

One of the developers commented sometime back that the ASIO settings aren't always available to Cakewalk to allow you to set via Preferences/ASIO Settings. I can change my M-audio interface via Preferences but not the Presonus - I have to run the external program.

So the "ease" of getting to the settings will vary depending on the interface.

Exactly, there is no universal way to set the buffer size.

Thanks guys.  Didn't realize that control panel was specific to my interface.
