The solution is to set the buffer size as low as it can go without inducing any audio problems. This is just like playing a game
of limbo:
1. Load some music into a Deck and play it.
2. While the music is playing, open the Audio Preferences.
3. If music is playing back properly, open the Buffer Size menu and select the next smallest buffer size. The buffer will
be updated immediately and the music will continue to play.
4. Listen to the music for a moment. If it sounds clean (no click, pops, or glitches), then lower the Buffer Size to the
next lowest setting.
5. Keep repeating this procedure, listening to the quality of the audio each time, until you reach a setting where the
audio breaks up.
6. Once you nd this lower threshold, set the Buffer Size to the next highest setting (the last one that worked
properly) and your system will be optimized.
While Torq should be very stable at these settings, keep in mind that the system performance can be compromised
as you increase the CPU load. This is most notable when using CPU-intensive VST effects. Loading one of these
effects may cause pops and click in your audio, at which point you will have to increase the buffer size until the
audio is clean again.
Note: Using some external VST effects can introduce additional audio buffering within the Torq application. When this
happens, your manipulations of the Decks will seem sluggish—this is a side effect of the VST plug-in in use and is not related
to this buffer setting.
