My setup with AV on Windows ME is likewise nothing special (here with MIDI
controller input):
-+K -+P -+Om0d+M

Oeyvind's comments are right on the mark. I've always found AV to offer much
better live performance than other Windows Csounds - without fiddling with
buffer settings, etc. - even with MME drivers.

Short of getting a faster system, asio4all's most recent edition now allows
for lower standard SR's, down to 8000, if this would help any.

I recommend to use ASIO drivers in native mode (not emulated), wherever 
possible.

asio4all works pretty good for all audio interface which are not 
provided with a native ASIO driver, lowering latency at a very low 
degree. I higly recommend it when appliable.

I also remember to suppress displaying messages (+Om0), otherwise clicks 
are unavoidable.

Would it be possible to move this type of threads from the main
Csound list to the CsoundAV forum ?
