Pro Audio Support

Q:
Cakewalk9 and Aardvark are a little flaky in Windows XP, what can I do to solve this?
 
A:
Go to Options-Audio-General and set the Record and Playback Timing Master to the Last pair of outputs; i.e. if you have a Direct Pro Q10 which has 10 inputs and outputs, set the timing master to Aark Direct Pro Q10 9/10.
