It might help if you say which midi slider you are using. And how you are using it. Act? Midi Learn?

OS upgrades always give you the option to keep all files and settings or to nuke them. Myself before I would do this I would spend $50 on a 500 GB ( or??) SSD drive and clone your current system. Samsung has a free app the Magician that I’ve used a few times now that works perfectly for this.

I use a similar app called SonoBus. It has a lot of tweaking you can try to bring the latency down.

The difference there is a musician can be a player and support the song or you can be the one delivering the song. The best gig I ever had was for 4 years I was an activity worker in a care home. I played my guitar every day and sang old songs. This is we’re I learned it’s more about the lyrics to the old songs than the music. Even though I was capable of soloing I never did. The focus was always the chorus. An example was we brought in these friends of mine who had a jazz quartet and they played old standards but no vocals. There was no reaction from the residents. When I did the sing alongs everybody reacted and most tried their best to sing along. We also learned lyrics sheets were a waist of time for all but the few who were still at that level. You might not remember the name of your daughter but you can sing the chorus to Home on Range

I just learned how to read the dump files so I was looking at all of mine from the last year. Kontakt and TTS-1. Every time. That Quick Quack sounds like a loser too.

Seems like it’s to do with moving the desktop to a different drive. I don’t think that’s allowed??

Amen. It’s worse on the Facebook pages. They are all so very uninformed about the whole show . Who can blame them.

Sorry I should have read you answer more closely as I see now what you were saying is clear. What I don’t know is what this person is using Bandlab app on . It might be totally different when you use an audio interface with a tablet or phone. And Apple doesn’t need ASIO as far as I can tell.

Sorry but that is wrong information. Audio levels are set at the audio interface before it is converted to digital and sent to your Daw. You can turn the track gain right off and the recording level will not change. As you set the levels on your Interface with the track in record standby the track meter should match what the meter on the interface is showing. This is true of ASIO system. On board audio there’s Windows volume mixer involved. Possibly your friend did not check there and make sure they are using ASIO mode. Oh wait a minute did you say Bandlab the cell phone app?? Or are you saying Cakewalk by Bandlab

Did you follow the instructions in the video posted by @reginaldStjohn?

It’s been gone over a million times on all the audio related forums and the conclusion is that in blind testing nobody can hear a difference. Even the super budget converters on a computer sound card seem to work fine. Of course there must be a difference but it will be off the spectrum of human hearing. You won’t hear anything different running the signal through a mixer like a Mackie. They are good mixers and transparent.

the Behringers that have the Midas pre amps are actually one of the best pre amps available. They rate very high on the list. The ones that don’t have Midas are considered garbage and rate near the bottom.

I don’t really review them I just compare price points to features. This video he reviews in detail and has tested a few. The only problem is there’s a few interfaces he didn’t test like Zoom and Tascam that are in my opinion very good interfaces.

I will interpret this as you are saying to use analog gear you have to send it out from the DAW through you audio interface and then bring it back? Yes often people who do this use what are called inserts if your interface supports them. But a regular interface can easily be configured if it has lots of ins and outs. With a good quality interface using ASIO drivers there should be no latency. The DAW and the ASIO driver calculate the latency and adjust for it so everything is in perfect sync. Only ASIO does this.

You won’t normally hear back from them. I never have other than auto generated emails telling me to try safe mode. Which is what you need to try. It will be a plug in you need to remove.
