Hello!
Every time I open the standalone SD3 and want to adjust the audio buffer size in the ASIO settings, the panel of my audio interface opens with a “block size” of 256 (buffer size is called “block size” by Presonus). Even if I change it to more or less and click “Apply”, the interface panel shows immediately 256 again and the indicated latency in the SD3 options never changes. There are no noticeable latency changes if I hit 12 or 4096. That’s understandable, because the block always goes back to 256 if i hit Apply.
Even if SD3 is closed and the ASIO buffer is set to e.g. 32 or 4096, if I start SD3, it changes to 256 immediately.
This way i have an Output Latency of 7.0ms and Buffer Latency of 5.3ms at 48000kHz. I notice this latency (especially on the hi-hat and high Toms)
However, the change of the buffer size works fine if I load SD3 as a VST instrument through Cubase.
The only possible way for me to reduce the latency on the standalone SD3 is to change the sample rate – this works. If I set 192000Hz with a random buffer, the sample rate gets accepted and the buffer size changes to 256 again. With 192000Hz I get 1.9ms Output latency and 1.3ms Buffer latency. I notice no latency here.
I use a windows 10 pro laptop, i7-8086 processor with 32GB RAM. My interface is Presonus Quantum.
Thanks in advance for your help! 🙂
