Re: Firmware v1.10 Release Notes




Hi Hpyt,


maybe you have to dig deep into this monster thread, but I wrote quite a lot about the pitfalls with FiWi on a PC/windows.

I can set my windows computer down to 48 samples when working with the X32 without a glitch, but they are "pimped" to max for audio performance.

Some basic tipps:

Run dpc latency checker and see, if your computer is good for realtime audio-->

DPC Latency Checker

If you got bad results and if you are on Windows7, than run latency mon-->

Resplendence Software - LatencyMon: suitability checker for real-time audio and other tasks

This will tell you, what causes the problem

In addition, you have to tweak your windows for better performance.

I can recommend these tweaking tipps here-->

SAC - Tweaking Windows


If you use a laptop, please be aware, that there a laptops out there, that will never perfom good for realtime audio. Sad but true.

In addition: You need a firewire port/card with a Texas Instrument (T.I.) chipset or one of the newer Via chipsets. If your device manager tells you: Micron or O² chipset - you're screwed most of the time.

To much hassle?

Buy a Mac Book Pro! These will perfrom with 64 Samples out of the box.


Keep my fingers crossed!
