In windows this was a relatively simple process...but in Monterey I am having difficulty in finding where do do this (if indeed it is possible?)
Is there a way to do it?

How to change audio sample rate and bitrate in Monterey?

Thanks, although that only shows sample rate - I also need to alter buffer - I suspect it's sitting at 1024, I need to change it to 256
what are you trying to work this out with: what app(s)? buffer settings exist in audio apps, not globally for the OS.
Trying to set a lower latency in Reaper (and in a hosting app, but it has it's own dedicated audio settings control).
It is in there, but it seems to make no difference...thought there may be something at the system level.

whatever settings you make in reaper and the 'hosting' app? (which you're running reaper thru?) are the only settings you can change. how are you hosting reaper?
Sorry I wrote that in a confusing way...I use Reaper for DAW work, and a hosting app for live VST playing...I do not use Reaper live and it is not being used inside the hosting app (in this case Camelot Pro).
In Reaper I can "call" for the latency rate to be 256 but it seems to make no difference....hence querying if it can be adjusted at a system level.

if you've made it 256, then it's 256... for reaper. how is it not feeling different? try some more 'extreme' settings, quit and reopen reaper (perhaps), see how that goes...
have you rebooted? might help. and if you're on an intel mac, resetting the nvram and/or the SMC sometimes helps. but mostly: 256 is a pretty high setting for playing; i have logic's audio buffer at 32. can you get it lower and still work?
thanks - it's an M1 mac mini. I'd prefer lower, but I am finding 256 to be a reasonable compromise. Playing latency is ok. Having issues with Camelot Pro and it's management of the 8 cores (as in it just totally glitches out when trying to run in multi-core support) but THAT's another story hahaha!
I'll give the re-boot a try though, as you say, it might do something

you can always run the buffer lower when you're playing, and set it higher for mixing.
