Native Instruments Komplete Audio 6 User Manual

Audio Processing Section
The Audio Processing section in the Audio Settings page of the Control Panel.
The Audio Processing section sets the parameters for the analog-to-digital/digital-to-analog
conversion done by your audio interface. It has two menus:
▪ Sample Rate: Choose a sample rate that is compatible with your music application and
best suited to your computing power. A higher sample rate improves the audio quality, but
also causes higher CPU load. By default, the sample rate is set to 44100 Hz (CD quality).
The sample rate defines how many samples are played/recorded per one second of
sound. A higher sample rate results in higher audio quality; however, 44100 Hz (as
used for recording audio CDs) is a common setting and absolutely sufficient for most
tasks. If your final destination is CD, you should use this setting or a multiple of it
(88200 Hz). For a better understanding: 48000 Hz is used by DAT recorders and for
DVD (films) recording. 96000 Hz and higher rates are typical for DVD, HD DVD, and
Blue-ray Disc audio recording. You should be aware that a higher sample rate also caus-
es higher CPU load.
If you want to use multiple software clients simultaneously with the device, keep in
mind they'll also have to share the same sample rate.
▪ Process Buffer: Lower the buffer size value for a quicker response time from your computer
to audio software and MIDI controller actions.
