Zero latency is also called direct monitoring - you hear the input to the audio interface, not the output from the DAW so you wouldn't hear any plugins. Glad that worked.

If the buffer is too small you may get clicks and pops. So you may need to make the buffer a little larger depending on whether or not you've optimized your computer for audio performance. Good luck.

The first place to look is the audio IF. Are you using asio and is your asio buffer as small as possible while still being stable? I normally run at 96 samples, but if I shutdown the lan 64 is stable. Roundtrip latency in CbB is reporting 9.8 msec at 96 samples. Some plugins have more latency than others - linear phase can be pretty bad. Start with no plugins and tune your system and see if it's ok. Then add plugins one by one and see if one is particularly bad. People have different ideas about how much latency is acceptable.

What John said. What I meant was open CbB with asio and CbB setup to share. Although I just checked and I don't have suspend audio engine checked so that isn't necessary.

FWIW I open biab with asio and create a song and then open CbB with asio setup to share. Click the DAW button in biab in the upper left corner and it shrinks biab and keeps it on top and you can select instruments from below the menu bar and drag and drop into CbB. So far I've just been doing it with audio, I haven't tried that with midi tracks.

Unfortunately it's just Content location, that's not broken down so you can select a different location just for Kontakt samples. I just upgraded from select to full and copied all the Kontakt libraries to an ssd.

Good to know, thanks for pointing that out.

I think it's still good. I have a Boss SY-1000 and it enables me to split the signal so I've been sending one signal to S-Gear and another to an old ADA MP-1 and dialing in some of the S-Gear tones on the MP-1. I've had the MP-1 for 25 years or so and still like it.

I don't think you need the step sequencer for this - just use a midi track. Set recording for sound on sound. Set up a loop. I think you can record enable/disable while looping. You'll have to try deleting and see if it works.

I just have the one dll.

I have a number that I use. For the most part I use MSuperlooper by melda productions. https://www.meldaproduction.com/MSuperLooper There's also Augustus Loop by Expert Sleepers. https://www.expert-sleepers.co.uk/augustusloop.html I tend to layer sounds and Ableton Live works well for that although it's not like traditional loopers and you get a lot more, but also pay more. For doing Frippertronics stuff I like Imperial Delay, although it only has 10 seconds of delay. https://www.bozdigitallabs.com/product/imperial-delay/

I haven't used it in years. IIRC I saved MIDI bindings inside the plugin. I set it up once and tweaked occasionally. I wasn't a power user - I just did basic looping and I don't think I used presets.

In the first video above Justin says his tone is from the processor that looks like a boss gt-3 and since it's an amp modeler it's hard to say.

That's understandable. I try to keep my home studio setup for minimal fuss.

My bad, USB 3 and USB 2 have the same latency. USB 3 will move more data.

USB-C is a form factor, it can be USB-2 or 3. Check the specs. From what I've read on Windows USB 3 isn't any faster than USB 2, but it has higher bandwidth.

Just curious, any reason you don't want to use the hx stomp for output? I have a Boss sy-1000 and often use it as an audio interface with CbB or Ableton when practicing/noodling around.

I was trying from the US yesterday and there was no button to select Paypal. I tried with both edge and chrome.

Yeah, I missed out on jam points, but I do like the SSR. Just playing around with the rooms a bit I was able to get some nice sounds pretty quickly.

I had the same problem, went to JRR Shop ...

Spectrasonics. I have Omnisphere and IIRC I paid for one upgrade and an expansion (Bob Moog Tribute Library). but they both seemed reasonable. I've had a number of free upgrades over the years and a couple were substantial. Of course the upfront cost isn't cheap. Also agree with Melda P.

I have the MOTU M4 and it's working fine for me. Availability is a problem.

Not quite true. USB 2 is 480 Mbps and 3 is 4.8 Gbps which is an order of magnitude faster (and 3.1 is 10 Gbps), but transfer speed doesn't necessarily mean reduced latency. Part of it is that there are more data lines with USB 3 so some data is sent in parallel, but there is also a question of how the data is handled by the host. If the host system responded to data every time a byte was received, if enough data was sent, it would be possible to flood the system so all it did was respond to data and didn't have time to process it. I don't know what the protocol is for USB, but apparently the way the host handles incoming data isn't any faster for 3 vs 2. Since it isn't reducing latency it's not a selling point and vendors aren't flocking to it.
