ASIO Audio Interface Setup

  SETUP WIZARD ASIO Audio Interface Setup Adjust the buffer settings Windows  - Click the  Show ASIO panel  button to open the audio device driver 'Buffer Size' (latency) settings. You should see the  FL Studio ASIO  control panel: macOS  - You can adjust the Buffer length direct from the interface as shown below: Buffer length setting  - The buffer is a period of time, a 'window' 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 . Set the Buffer to around 512 samples. The  minimum recommended  Buffer length is around 441 samples (10 ms), below this setting very few people report any further improvement in 'responsiveness' and the CPU load climbs rapidly. It's not a competition!  NOTE:  If you select a different ASIO driver this po...

Audio Setup

  SETUP WIZARD Audio Setup Select a audio device driver and optimize the settings What's an audio device? You may have a soundcard in your computer, a chip on your motherboard or it may be an external device connected by USB/FireWire/Bluetooth (avoid Bluetooth devices, they introduce significant audio delay). The audio device is the device hardware that makes the sound you hear from your computer. The  audio device driver  is the software interface between the operating system and the audio device. The driver tells the operating system, and so FL Studio, what inputs, outputs and what sample rates the audio device can support. For  Windows   ASIO  is very important to achieve the best performance.  macOS  uses Core Audio (' Built-in Audio ' or your device name as shown in the list) and this will provide the best performance. Audio interface driver selection & settings Start FL Studio and  press the F10 key  on your keyboard to open th...
