USB streaming mode
The buffer of the USB streaming mode
controls the latency of the music signal from
the file source (PC client) and the DAC (HDV
820). The lower the latency, the more CPU
power the PC client has to allocate to this
process. Recommended setting: "Reliable".
ASIO buffer size
The ASIO buffer size controls the data
transfer between the driver and the playback
software. The ASIO buffer size depends on
the buffer of the USB streaming mode.
Recommended setting: "Auto".
