Clocksource Changes the Clock Source for Chained FireStudio-family Devices.
The StudioLive cannot slave to an external clock. However, if you are
cascading it with FireStudio-family products that do feature digital inputs,
the clock source becomes selectable.
The clock source setting will determine where the device chain is
receiving word-clock information. This keeps the chained devices
in sync with other digital devices and with each other. The menu
options are determined by the available digital inputs in the chain.
In general, you will want the StudioLive to be your Master
Clock, in which case set the clock to StudioLive-Internal.
Operation Mode Changes How the StudioLive Driver’s Buer Size is Set.
Normal Mode. Input and Output buers are both identical to the Buer
Size setting.
Safe Mode 1-3. Increases the output buer size for added stability.
Buer Size Selector (PC only) Changes the StudioLive Buer Size.
You can set the buer size from 64 to 4,096 samples. The buer size
determines the roundtrip time it takes audio data to be converted from
analog to digital and back to analog. As a general rule, the higher the
buer size, the better the system performance, but the less playable
virtual instruments and the like become. In general, 512 samples (11 to 12
milliseconds) will provide you with a large enough buer for optimum
system performance, but low enough to be unobtrusive. You should set
your buer size and sample rate prior to launching your host application.
On the Mac, the buer size is set from inside your host application.

Settings: Check Firmware Scans Your StudioLive and Updates the Firmware.
A rmware updater is built into the Universal Control application.
Periodically, a driver update will require that the rmware on your
StudioLive be updated. Whenever you install an update for the Universal
Control or add a new FireStudio-family product to your system, you
should use this feature to ensure that the rmware is up to date. If the
rmware needs to be updated, the update application will launch
automatically.
The rmware updater can also be used to reset your StudioLive 24.4.2
to factory default. To reset your StudioLive, hold down the CTRL and
ALT [OPTION] keys while clicking on "Check Firmware." Once the
rmware updater has nished, select "Reset" rather than "Restore."
