YES, it does really affect the latency and that's what those settings are there for.

The difference is that, when using any sort of ASIO driver, the latency setting must be done in the driver's particular Control Panel and not in the host software. It is usually called, "Buffer Settings" but not always.

Experiment with both higher and lower settings, too, for sometimes the default setting is actually too slow for some of the more modern puters.
