Is it necessary to install the Nvidia sound driver?

[sdatkinson]

I mean the rest of the questions the bug template asks for. Does this only happen when a NAM is loaded? If so, which one? etc.

Please answer this as well as the rest of the questions. Thanks!

Once the NAM is installed, I run the app and nothing happens. Disabling Windows Defender used to help, but it doesn't work now. Then I change the settings in the file manually, where I put the parameters that I described in the first post and then the application starts, but the sound is synthesizer 8-bit. Yes, this only happens in the Standalone version. With other Standalone programs, this is not the case. I note that before reinstalling Windows, NAM worked for me, I just had to disable Windows Defender otherwise it would not start.

[Antonym644]

I changed the settings again manually in the settings file to the following ones and everything worked! Probably it was the Sampling Rate or Buffer Size. At first, it only worked on the SR 44100. But then I managed to put up SR 48000. When changing the size of the buffer, it crashes.
