Latency between audio record and playback

[Dan Clark]

New to Cakewalk by Bandlab so I apologize for what is likely a basic setup question.

I am using a Roland OCTA Capture audio interface between my Korg Kronos and Windows 10 on my laptop.

I record a drum track then try to add another instrument on a secondary track and when I play it back after recording the two are out of sync by a very small amount.

The sample rates are consistent between all components.

Is there another adjustment that needs to be made in Cakewalk or my audio interface to compensate for the timing between playback and record? What am I missing???

Solved....driver mode was set to WASAPI ...reset it to ASIO now everything is perfect.....question is....how could I have known this??

Hi Dan and welcome to the Cakewalk forums.

Most interfaces dictate what driver type is required.  For instance, most interfaces will work with only ASIO drivers.  Other than that it is a matter of trial and error.

Kind regards,
