Primary Sound Driver Setup

  SETUP WIZARD Primary Sound Driver Setup Adjust the buffer settings The  DirectSound devices  options will show information about the buffer length (latency) and some other settings used by the audio device driver. The buffer is a 'breathing space' in which FL Studio can generate sound before sending it to the audio device. Shorter settings make FL Studio more responsive to live inputs (e.g. mouse or  hardware controllers ) at the expense of a higher CPU load, and possibly  underruns .

File Settings Setup

  SETUP WIZARD File Settings Setup Add external file folders to FL Studio Click the  File  tab in the  System Settings  window. We have a series of  video tutorials  on using the    Browser here . Here are  three reasons why this setup page is important: Save locations  - FL Studio will, by default, save your projects to (..[User]\Doccuments\Image-Line\Data\FL Studio\Projects). You can add some additional  extra search folder  locations (your own folders) and save files there also. Always keep your files separate from the FL Studio installation folder. External file locations  - Additionally,  if you have samples and sounds  that you want to use with FL Studio, the  File Settings  page is used to add their folders to the  Browser's  list. External VST/AU locations  - At the bottom of the File Settings interface is also an option to search for  VST/AU  plugins. You can ignor...
