Drivers Tab Options:
Latency Slider The Latency Slider enables you to set
mixing latency manually, overriding the
value set by the Wave Device Profiler. To
use the lowest values your sound card is
capable of, make sure WavePipe
Acceleration is enabled in the Advanced
tab of the DirectShow Audio dialog box.
Lower values increase the risk of audio
problems.
MIDI Volume Mapping • Linear Scale is the mapping used in
Cakewalk version 6 (and earlier).
• Quadratic Taper provides a finer
control of volumes at lower settings,
analogous to what you might
experience with a hardware console.
MIDI Pan Mapping (controls how the
pan controls function)
• Balance Control works by
attenuating the right channel for
pans to the left, and vice-versa. This
is simple, sensible and controllable,
and is how previous versions of
Cakewalk always dealt with pan.
• Constant Power pan alleviates a
drawback of balance-control pan, by
maintaining constant perceived
volume at all pan settings.
Wave Profiler The Wave Device Profiler attempts to
detect the make and model of your sound
card, which determine the card’s DMA
(Direct Memory Access) settings. Once
the Wave Device Profiler identifies the
card, it displays the results and asks
whether you want to use the default
settings for that card or to override them.
