Will I get low latency with Cakewalk's Sonar?
FAQThe kX driver is a kernel-streaming WDM driver, and a latency as low as 10 ms can be expected under Sonar (depending on your hardware/software setup). Currently, DirectSound2D and DirectSound3D are fully supported. DirectSound3D support is under constant development, however it can cause issues with some games. Any offers to help with implementing support for DirectSound3D would be gladly accepted (skilled programmers only please!).

Support - Frequently Asked Questions - Nationwide InternetLatency refers to the amount of time it takes a packet of data to travel across a network.

Related QuestionsWhat is CL or CAS Latency?
All of Memory FAQCL stands for CAS Latency. It is a programmable register in the SDRAM that sets the number of clock cycles between the issuance of the READ command and when the data comes out. Smaller number for CL indicates faster SDRAM within the same frequency. The first number of the 2-2-2 designation refers to CAS latency, so in short you are asking the advantage of a CAS latency of 2 over one of 3.
Related QuestionsWhat settings should I use in Sonar?
