Audio interface

[kyrillos]

Hello everybody 
while recording on cakewalk i heard my playing with latency, so i recorded with out a monitoring but the record was also with latency. i tried to fix it without hurting my budget so i bought a secondhand audio interface. its  "audiolink III"  
from    edit- preferences- playback and recording then driver mode ASIO
nothing is active and playback timing master set to none 
is it not asio? how to get no latency? and what difference i get with audio interface i mean i bought it to get no latency 
wasapi shared got also latency even with the interface
thanks a lot

Have you downloaded the latest drivers for your audiolink III?

https://miditech.de/en/produkte/manuals-drivers/

Also, what are your PC specs - CPU (Manufacturer, generation and speed), Amount of ram, hard drive type and capacity), version of Windows

Also, just to confirm, are you recording Audio or MIDI (I am thinking it's audio as you mention monitoring)

Hello Promidi thanks for your answer and sorry for late reply
i downloaded the driver as you mentioned and yes the driver that windows installed is not a correct one. now i can choose Asio driver and Asio panel is active 
But the latency controller is not active.
my computer specifications are:
Processor Intel (R) Core (TM) i5-3330 CPU @ 3.00GHZ     3.00  GHZ

Installed ram 8.00 GB

Hard disk HDD 1 TB

upgraded from win 8 to win 10

 

another question in wasapi shared i dont hear noise in my mic but now i do 
thanks for your helo

finally it records mono not stereo 
i compose the music i want to play and then i record my instrument audio on the pre arranged tracks
i play lute its a very old world instrument

Just to confirm, if you head to Preferences | Audio | driver settings, can you drag the "Buffer size".

If this does not work then you should be able to click on "ASIO Settings" to open the software that6 controls the Audiolink III settings

Note: I use a Focusrite 2i2 so I have a slightly different set up - but as far as Cakewalk is concerned, it should be similar.

When you say "noise in your mic" - are you meaning like a background hiss?

the driver is installed but it didnt install any tool to adjust settings. only inside cakewalk asio panel but i dont think it helps
