overcompensated latency issues
Hello anyone!
I've recently been trying to record from a softsynth to an audio track but the recording has been adjusted too much for latency.
Each beat of the recording is very slightly before the actual beat! I assume cakewalk is over compensating for latency.
The latency adjustment for recording live instruments is perfect, so I know it's not a problem with my machine.
I have found a couple of posts from people with the same problem but nobody seems to have an answer.
Some audio interfaces don't report their record latency accurately.
Check the Record Offset for your audio interface.
Record a short high-transient spike signal (like an isolated click).
Now, take that single "Click" and rerecord it (physically patch an output to an input) to a second track.
Zoom way in... and measure the difference between the two clicks (in samples).
This is your audio interface's Record Offset.
In Sonar, under Preferences>Audio>
