Stop wireless LAN transmission, antivirus software and other software running in the background when using this unit. 2. Set the buffer size (latency) in the audio application that you are using or in this unit's Settings Panel to a larger value. (Windows only) NOTE Consult the maker of the audio application that you are using for methods to reduce its load on your computer. 3. Change the settings of your computer so that they are optimal for audio processing. Using Windows 1. Open the Control Panel using the procedures for the OS (Windows 10/Windows 8.1/ Windows 7). ii In Windows 10, click Control Panel from the Windows Start button to open the Control Panel. Then, click the System icon. ii In Windows 8.1, right-click the ordinary Start screen (Metro user interface screen) and then click "All apps".
