Why is my track lagging, glitching or stuttering?

If you experience choppy, laggy or stuttering playback, it's a sign that your track is using a lot of computer processing power.

Don't worry, this can typically be fixed by setting the studio to a higher or lower buffer size. To do this, click "Settings" on the top menu in the studio and "Edit Settings". On a pop-up, choose a higher number in the drop down menu under ”Buffer Size” and click "OK".

If your project contains many effects, the recommended buffer size is 2048. Increasing the buffer size will help make the studio working more fluently and prevent glitches or clicks. However, this might introduce additional latency - the delay your computer introduces between the time you play or sing a note and when you hear the sound.

If your project is simpler and does not contain many effects, the recommended buffer size is 512 or 1024. Decreasing the buffer size will help reduce latency, but may cause a bit of glitches.

When it comes to finding the perfect buffer size, it all depends on your project so try raising or lowering the buffer size until the playback is smooth!
