MAYA44 USB+

3.2 Latency settings

With the Latency menu entry under Config, you can change the latency of the driver of MAYA44

USB+. Depending on the typical application (e.g. for playback of software synthesizers) a smaller

latency is an advantage. At the same time, the best latency setting indirectly depends on the

performance of your system. For most default applications, a typical latency buffer size between

128 and 256 is standard. On a slow system, 512 is an option.

Please note that the latency has to be setup before launching any audio application.

What is DirectWIRE?

DirectWIRE is a driver technology, developed by ESI, which can be used for routing audio streams

internally within applications using EWDM Audio MIDI Drivers exclusively developed by ESI.

With the DirectWIRE router, an application can record from other application's audio outputs

without external wiring or any loss of data when they are running at the same time.

DirectWIRE also allows you to easily rip any audio stream in real time by transferring data thru

DirectWIRE from MP3s, live On-line Broadcast and On-demand content, and more.

DirectWIRE is not available under Mac OS X.

DirectWIRE Panel

Click on DirectWIRE on the MAYA44 USB+ control panel. The DirectWIRE dialog as shown

below will appear. DirectWIRE digital virtual wiring technology, developed by ESI, routes audio

streams internally within applications using standard audio drivers such as WDM, ASIO and MME,

even when they are running at the same time.
