| Buffer Size |
Size (in audio samples) of the ASIO buffer used when transporting audio between Dante Virtual Soundcard and the audio application. Again, computers with poor scheduling performance will need to use a higher setting.
On first installing Dante Virtual Soundcard, the Buffer size is set to 128 samples. |
32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, or 2048 samples |
| Encoding |
Default: 24 bit.
The bit depth required by the audio application being used with Dante Virtual Soundcard. Some audio applications may not support the Dante network’s native 24 bit, and will need a different bit depth set at the ASIO interface.
All received audio is truncated (if 16 bit) or padded (if 32 bit) to the value the application supports, and conversely truncated or padded to 24 bit audio for transmission on the Dante network.
Unless your audio application does not support 24 bit, this should be left at the default, as changing this value may result in loss of audio quality. |
16, 24 or 32 bits |
| ASIO Latency |
Latency to insert before transmitting audio from the ASIO buffer on to the Dante network. This compensates for the variability in computer scheduling.
On first installing Dante Virtual Soundcard, the ASIO latency is set to 10ms. |
1, 2, 3, 5, 10 and 20ms |
