If you make a change to the any of the options below, choose Apply Settings by clicking Apply or click OK to apply those settings to the track. You can switch to any other of the tracks listed from the drop down list. The Select track's settings displays the track you are editing by it's Track Index number. To set audio options that are specific to an individual track, select the track and click either the 'Audio Options' button under the 'Recording' tab or click the 'wrench icon' button to the right in the track's control panel. This option is not available for DirectSound or MME drivers.

If you select an ASIO device then you will also be able to select which channel to allocate as your primary left and right outputs. Here you are able to set the playback device you would like MixPad to use. Open the Options dialog (File -> Options.) and click on the General tab. If you don't have an ASIO capable sound card then you should choose Windows Core Audio as your playback and recording option.Īnother option is to install the driver from ASIO4ALL which provides a layer over the regular soundcard, allowing it to be used as an ASIO device by software such as MixPad. ASIO will also allow you to play and record from multiple channels of the same device.

ASIO and Windows Core Audio will provide the best performance and the lowest possible latency and offer the greatest accuracy when synchronizing recordings. NCH recommends ASIO or Windows Core Audio for both playback and recording. MixPad currently features support for playback to ASIO, DirectSound, Windows Core Audio and MME devices and recording from ASIO, Windows Core Audio and MME devices.
