Audio Settings¶
Open audio settings from Settings > Audio Settings.

Audio Device¶
- Output device — Select your audio interface or built-in output
- Input device — Select the audio input for recording
- Sample rate — 44100 Hz and 48000 Hz are common choices
- Buffer size — Lower values reduce latency but increase CPU load
Tip
MAGDA automatically optimizes buffer sizes when switching views: Live mode uses the lowest latency, while Mix and Arrange modes use larger buffers for stability.
Channel Configuration¶
- Active output channels — Choose which output channels to use (stereo pair or multi-channel)
- Active input channels — Choose which input channels are available for recording
MIDI¶
- MIDI input devices — Enable or disable connected MIDI controllers and keyboards
- MIDI output devices — Enable or disable MIDI output to hardware synthesizers
Preferred Device¶
- Use as preferred device — Check this box to remember your device selection and restore it automatically on startup. If the preferred device is unavailable, MAGDA falls back to the system default.
