Default more dropout resurfaced/question about what appeared to fix

Greetings,

Well, I thought I had everything settled with the US-1641, but have started to experience intermittent dropouts again--even though the configuration has remained constant (default/medium latency setting on driver, "time critical" thread priority, "Pre-zero output buffers, useful on some hardware," and "Ignore ASIO reset messages" all checked/selected).

During last night's session, the dropouts became so frequent that I decided to see what other options might help and, in a fit of desperation, tried unchecking:

"Allow projects to override device sample rate"

And, to my surprise, not only did that eliminate the dropouts, but it seemed to have improved my (through-REAPER) monitoring latency as well.

This seems more than a bit odd to me, but was hoping that someone who knows more about this option can shed more light on the subject--and why this option, in particular, seems to have improved things so dramatically.

Thanks a lot and take care,


Alan
