Sound Card

First off i just found out about a newer version of MPTrack and so i decided to offer what i know about 1.16.0206 and hopefully anyone who knows of 1.17.02.48 will help to extend this.Here We Go!

Sound Card: This basicly is where you choose you Audio Device.Your choices though,consist of what Hardware you have.The Primary Sound Driver is the Default,but if you have another Card(or sound Device in this case)you can choose that if is of Higher Quality or just Preference.

Buffer Length: Allows you to Choose the Buffer Length in ms(Milli-Seconds)to adjust Latency for your Card(Sound Device)and CPU. Petty Much the Lower the latency the better sounding and more accurate your song,Plug-ins,Etc.,will be.But the Less Latency the MORE CPU will be required.

Use Secondary Buffers: Enables the Use of Secondary Buffers.It turns on additional buffers to help out if your having probs with your sound(Skips,Pops and Etc).Basicly adds extra latency.

Mixing Quality: Various Sample rates at your disposal!44100 is CD Quality and Standard,but that dosent mean you cant go 96000!DO remember that the higher the Sample Rate the More CPU is Required.Besides that the higher the Sample Rate the more "Space" you have to work with,which can be really helpfull or just plain cool.

The second option to adjust is the Bits,this Basicly alows you to Change the Bit Rate of your Song.44100-16 Bit is Standard,CD Quality.Going Higher than 16-Bit allows More"Headroom"alloted for your song or playback.And again,More CPU is Required.

Max Polyphony: The Maximum amount of Voices(Sounds)that can be played at once.Depending on your PC Stats, choose whats right for you,just remember that the more the merrier,But Requires More CPU.

Reverse Stereo: Reverses the Stereo output,Left is Right and Right is Left for example.

Enable MMX Acceleration: If you have a Intel Pentium Proccesor(2,3,4,hyper threading,etc.)that suports MMX then this box will be availible,if not then it will be grayed out.MMX will improve sound quality and also give support for other things i cant remember at the moment.

Soft Panning: I personaly dont know exactly what it does,but smoothes out the panning if im correct.no smart asses leaving remarks about this one.or the extreme sarcastic.you know who you are.

Pre-Amp: Inceases the volume of the sounds or song.but be carfull not to over due it.It may"Flatten"your song if set to high.

Stereo Seperation: Increases or Decreases the seperation of stereo in the mix.I recommend leaving it at 100% unless you absoluty need to increase or decrease for a reason.

So far this is what i got and know at the moment.The community Seems smaller than i thought,so ill do what i can when i can to help out.
