XO Wave: Preferences
The Preferences window controls a variety of XO Wave
settings -- including colors, Edit window
behavior, and more.
- The General section allows you to
change general settings such as how many levels of Undo
to save (more undos requires more memory), what default
bit-depth to use when recording, and how to handle
sample-rate conversion for imported files.
- The Edit section is documented
in the Waveform
Display reference.
- The Effects section controls effects
settings. In particular, it provides options
to control how long Audio Unit meter readouts show the peak
level (measured in audio blocks), and how frequently
Audio Unit meters are updated (this is akin to the Meter Hold
setting on the built-in Meter effect).
Using larger meter update intervals can significantly
reduce the CPU requirements during
playback, but also makes Audio Unit meters less responsive. You can
also choose how XO Wave Free handles Audio Units:
they may either be
"auditioned", which means they will play back with occasional silences
(so you can see how Audio Units work with XO Wave), or you can bypass
them entirely, which is useful when working with XO Wave Free
sessions in XO Wave Free.
- The Color section allows you to
change the colors used in Edit windows. This is useful
if you don't like the default colors or just want a
change of pace.
- The Server section controls interaction with
the Audio Engine. For example, if you want more
frequent updates on the status of offline operations,
change the Offline Update Interval in this
section.
- The New Session section specifies defaults for ISRC codes & CD Text, as well as time codes for sessions created in the future.
