Operation - Pioneer DDJ-WEGO3 Operating Instructions Manual

 Adjusting the buffer size
In the same way as the buffer size setting in VirtualDJ LE 8, decreas-
ing the value of the [Kernel Buffers] setting lowers the transfer delay
(latency) of the audio data, while increasing the value reduces the ten-
dency for dropouts in the audio data (breaks in the sound).
! If the [Buffer Size] or [Kernel Buffers] number is made large, drops
in the data (breaks in the sound), etc., occur less easily, but the time
lag due to transmission delays in the audio data (latency) increases.
 If breaks in the sound occur with the default
setting
Launch [DDJ_WeGO3 ASIO Settings Utility] and change
[Kernel Buffers] to [4].
 If no breaks in the sound occur with the default
setting
Launch [DDJ_WeGO3 ASIO Settings Utility], change
[Kernel Buffers] to [2], and check that no breaks in the
sound occur.
! If breaks in sound occur, change [Kernel Buffers] of [DDJ_WeGO3
ASIO Settings Utility] to [3].
