Configure channels​

Use Input Config and Output Config to enable only the channels required by the Live Set. Disabling unused I/O can make the list easier to manage and reduce unnecessary CPU/driver overhead.

At full 44.1/48 kHz ADAT operation, iD24 reports up to 10 inputs and 14 outputs to the host. At higher sample rates the ADAT channel count is reduced.

Monitoring​

If the iD Software Mixer is providing direct low-latency monitoring, set the corresponding Live track monitoring so the same live input is not also returned through Live unless that is intentional.

Buffer size​

Use the Audient driver/iD controls on Windows or the available Core Audio buffer control on macOS/Live to balance latency and system stability.
