correction?

Hi Tekker, it's me again

I think I have a correction for one of your lessons... Not a big one, though... In lesson about using Kristal you say:

Quote:
Now click on the menu that says Audio Setup and change the Pre-Load Amount to "No Preload". If you leave it at the default 2 seconds, then you will have 2 seconds of latency, which you definitely do not want.
This option is not about latency... It's about what portion of track would be pre-loaded from hard disc... Here is what they say in help file:

Quote:
'Pre-Load Amount' (ASIO and MME)

The 'Pre-Load Amount' setting determines how much audio material should be read at once from the hard disk.

For example, a Pre-Load of 2 seconds means that KRISTAL Waver tracks are 'cached' 2 seconds in advance. (Similarly, changes made to clip volume/fades will be audible after 2 seconds, plus the current output latency.)

'No Pre-Load' means the mixer reads audio data directly from hard disk. This option should not be used in conjunction with small block sizes - take note, ASIO users!
As you see, they even suggest to ASIO users not to use "No Pre-Load"...

I hope I'm right about this one...

All best
