Actually I noticed mine had changed too today - IPhone 15 ... I was also thinking that recently (past week or so) the sound has been getting a bit muddier etc... was this what's been causing it ... and does it have anything to do with IOS recent update???

I have a brand new MacBook Air M2 laptop, and every time I wake the computer, or restart Pianoteq (v. 8.4.0), or unplug the headphones, the Audio buffer size resets to the default value (512 samples, 10.7ms), and I have to manually change it back to 128 samples (2.7ms). I've never experienced this setting not staying put before.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
