6 – Using the Settings Panel
3 Buffer Size item (Windows Only)
The driver for the unit stores the audio input and output
signals transferred to and from the computer temporarily in
a buffer.
This buffer size can be adjusted.
Smaller buffer sizes result in less audio signal delay (latency),
but require high-speed processing by the computer.
If the processing cannot keep up, for example, due to other
system operations, clicking and popping noises might occur
and the audio signal might even drop out.
Increasing the buffer size will stabilize operation and
suppress negative effects on audio signals, but the delay in
audio signals sent to the computer will increase.
You can use the slider on the panel to adjust the buffer size,
according to the use conditions.
Use the slider to select fixed values that increase from left to
right (64, 128, 256, 512, 1024 and 2048 samples).
4 Audio Input items

i Turn an input on by putting a check in its checkbox.
When an input is on, signals on that channel will be
input.
i Turn an input off by removing the check from its
checkbox . When an input is off, signals on that
channel will not be input.

Options
“MONITOR”

Audio Input On/Off items and the signals sent from
the computer by USB are mixed using the MONITOR
BALANCE knob. This mix is output from the LINE OUT 1-2
and PHONES jacks.
NOTE
Set the MONITOR BALANCE knob all the way to the left
(INPUT) to monitor only the input channel signals and set it
all the way to the right (COMPUTER) to monitor only signals
output from the computer. At other positions, both signals
will be mixed.
“Computer 1-2”
Only the “Computer 1-2” signals sent from the computer
by USB are output from the LINE OUT [BALANCED] and
PHONES jacks.
”Computer 3-4 (US-4x4 only)“
Only the “Computer 3-4” signals sent from the computer
by USB are output from the LINE OUT [BALANCED] and
PHONES jacks.

When this setting is on, if operating in standalone mode and
no input signal (above −60 dBFS) has been detected for 30
minutes, the unit will turn itself off (start standby) automat-
ically.
