the I/O blocksize, which is set in the audio settings dialog, is what
Pd uses to interface with whatever audio API is in use.
Thanks for the clarification, Miller. What I am confused by is that when
using ALSA and changing blocksize from 64 to 2048, there is no audible
difference in the delay, even though it should be profound enough to be
preceivable by ear. Is this because ALSA has another internal buffer
that essentially supersedes either blocksize, making the final output
(near?) identical?
Also, response to Jonathan's follow-up question regarding JACK would be
appreciated. It seems from looking at the code, JACK does not care about
blocksize variable but I could be easily missing something.
Best,
Ico
cheers

Hi list, What does the blocksize entry box in audio dialog properties do?
And how does that value relate (if at all) to the value output by
sys_getblksize?
Thanks,Jonathan
