Software settings
 
There is no FA-101 Driver Settings dialog box on Macintosh. 
Make settings from within your software.
You can adjust the audio latency by changing the FA-101 driver settings.
Decreasing the buffer size will shorten the latency.
Increasing the buffer size may eliminate problems such as clicks or pops in the sound.

This completes the basic settings.
