My interface has midi so I guess the work-around would be to record a midi track and the use that to trigger one of the synths or drum machines onto another track. In my case, doing this creates a feedback loop, so it wasn't possible. However, to do that through the interface you have to take the output of the soundcard and run it to one of the inputs. Like you say, the best way would be to record those onto another track and measure the difference. I used sequenced woodblock hits that I recorded on my drum track for a count in. I figured that even though 5 ms sounded perfect, it must actually be some small percentage greater or less than this. I thought of that while I was trying to set it up. Give it a try, and if you get a chance let us know! -A But my USB interface is inherently latent (5ms ain't awful though) and this has completely solved the problem. I'm totally with Manning1 on getting your computer running as fast and clean as possible, and I've applied many of his tips. Obviously it must be accounted for on playback! The above method is working perfectly without all that other screwing around! After all, that's why they have direct monitoring on USB interfaces to compensate for the latency you would otherwise hear while dubbing tracks. I was wrong! Seems dumb now, not to have thought of it before. I just assumed that the Time Offset thing was a necessary evil- Even though it was a pain. But I also knew it would have more latency. I knew I wanted a USB interface for the portability and the fact that you can keep it away from computer and monitor noise. So even though I used to engineer back in analog times, this is a different can of worms and makes me newbie. To be dirt honest, I'm completely new to all the gear in my home studio. Kinda sounds like the way it should have worked in the first place! Now everything records in sync without having to do the Time Offset thing on every track. I found my value by trial and error, which turned out to be 5 milliseconds. Under Options> Device Properties on the Wave In tab there is a box for Multitrack Latency where you can enter a value in milliseconds. because as soon as I posted that I had this mini revelation: Just because that's what I've been doing doesn't mean it's the ultimate solution! I thought there must be an easier way, so I dug a little deeper, and I've found it! I didn't see any mention of this in the thread, so I thought I'd mention it. I've never had to change it by more than 3 numbers. It just moves the new wave block in time relation to the drum/rythym track to compensate for the latency. Then I save that track into my multi-track session, and from then on it's always in time whether I dub more takes onto it, or whatever. I then change the Time Offset for that wave block to 00:02:37:25, give a quick listen and if it's still off, I go back and take it down one more number to 00:02:37:24 -Bingo, it's in sync. Just right click on the newly recorded block, then select "Wave Block Properties." In the box you will see "Time Offset." Adjust the smallest incremental number to a smaller value.įor instants: I use 30 fps SMPTE to measure time, so let's say I record a solo on another track at 00:02:37:26 of the song, but it's out of sync on playback.
