WinTimerTester 1.1 is a portable program that displays the current values of your hardware timers. It works by running two different clocks within your CPU simultaneously and comparing them to ensure they are synchronized. Specifically, it compares the Windows GetTickCount function with the QueryPerformanceCounter (QPC) function.
In the world of high-end audio processing, "jitter" (timing errors) is a major concern. Users often use this tool to ensure their system timer is as precise as possible to reduce latency spikes during recording or playback. wintimertester
