#X text 19 38 All sound cards are capable of at least two channels
of audio. Pd supports these two channels by default and uses your system's
generic audio drivers to communicate with your hardware. However \,
for faster input/output and for more than two channels of audio \,
PD incorporates the use of "PortAudio" which uses ASIO drivers to communicate
with your hardware. So \, to instruct Pd to use more than two channels
of audio \, your command line should read like below:;
#X text 80 145 c:/pd/bin/pd.exe -pa -inchannels 8 -outchannels 8;
#X text 19 174 The "-pa" switch means "PortAudio". This switch is new
as of Pd version 0.37 TEST 4 and replaces the old "-asio" switch.;
#X text 19 234 The "-inchannels" and "-outchannels" switches can be
summarized by using "-channels 8" because currently PortAudio requires
that the number of incoming and outgoing channels must be equal. This
may change in the Pd's future...;
#X text 19 314 To further optimize Pd's usage of your audio hardware
\, you can explore the following:;
#X text 29 355 - audiobuf;
#X text 30 373 - blocksize;
#X text 29 389 - audioindev;
#X text 29 407 - audiooutdev;
#X text 25 433 With the right hardware \, Pd can manage audio input
and output with lower than 10 milliseconds of latency.;

#N canvas 84 165 428 347 sample_rate 0;
#X text 19 37 [adc~] and [dac~] always operate at the sample rate that
is specified in Pd's command line. By default \, the sample rate is
44100 hz. But Pd operates any sample rate supported by standard audio
hardware. Sample rates cannot be changed at run-time in Pd \, but must
be stated in the command line when Pd is instantiated. As well \, two
or more instances of Pd running simoultaneously can each be using different
sample rates! Having said that \, Pd can easily upsample or downsample
by using the [block~] object. Here are some example of the common sample
rates:;

the [dac~] and [adc~] objects separately using the "-nodac" and "-noadc"
switch \, or disable both using the "-nosound" switch.;
