Not all buffer sizes are not compatible with every safe mode. Each safe mode has been optimized for use with certain buffer sizes. UC Surface will alert you to an incompatible buffer size by placing an exclamation point warning next to the incompatible safe mode if selected. If you proceed with an incompatible buffer size / safe mode combination, audio performance will suffer.
For best performance, only use the following safe modes with each buffer size:
| Buffer Size |
