hi jtorres, > I was checking out Reaper thru wine and it seems like when I have the screen open the audio breaks up really bad. When I minimize the screen the audio plays just great! Is there any other settings I need to check? I am using the Alsa driver and hardware is set to Emulation. If you plan on using reaper, You should do as most linux reaper users do - install jack-audio-connection-kit and also WineASIO. then you can use the ASIO driver, which is better than using ALSA. in wine. Jack/wineASIO will give you better performance, and you will be able to use the app at lower latencies (smaller frames). jordan
