Low latency is desirable for recording, tracking, overdubbing, etc. If the latency is minimal, we may not be able to perceive it. If audio arrives at the output later than desired then it is considered to have high latency. Even if the soundcard operated with no buffer ( a buffersize of “1” ) then the process of converting Analog to Digital, and then back to Analog, will incur about 2-3 milliseconds. If you just need to play your tracks for mixing, then a fairly large buffersize will provide the best system stability.ĭue to the nature of computers and digital audio, there will always be some latency in a DAW. In many cases, latency doesn’t matter much. The buffer size has a direct effect on latency: Larger buffer sizes will incur a longer latency. “Latency” is the amount of time it takes for digital audio to pass from the computer’s input to output. This video by Richard Ames provides an overview of your computer’s audio system, and why the buffersize is such an important factor in performance. If you choose too high a buffersize, then you might hear a delay through the system, or notice that the computer is not very responsive to you. If you choose too low a buffersize, you will likely encounter ‘clicks’ when your system gets busy. This buffersize can be changed by the user to balance the system’s stability and power, versus latency and responsiveness. So it has to “buffer” the audio for a while, and then pass this larger buffer to the computer for processing. When a computer soundcard ( whether internal, USB, Thunderbolt, or something else ) gathers audio data from the Analog-to-Digital converters, it can’t “wake up” the computer CPU 44,100 times per second. But audio events ( or more accurately, “samples” ) typically occur 44,100 times per second, or more! Computers are not intended to be ‘interrupted’ by the outside world this often and if you did, it would severely compromise the amount of work that the computer can attend to. How do I choose a buffer size? And how does computer audio (really) work?Īlthough Desktop computers are blindingly fast inside, they are optimized to interface with the world at “human speed”… a user sends dozens of keyboards command every second, at best and the screen is updated perhaps 30-50 times per second.
