Can Logic 6 compensate for latency when recording?
Hi all,
I process a lot of my audio samples through external EQ's and compressors by sending audio tracks to the appropriate outputs of and recording the return on another track. I've noticed that after doing this a couple of times my audio starts to drift out of time. As an experiment I connected one of my interfaces outputs directly to one of its inputs and recorded the output of one track onto another track and then zoomed in so I could measure the delay. It seems there is a 3.5ms delay. This is small in itself but multiplies enough after a few iterations to make it noticable and a problem. I was under the impression that software such as logic compensated for latency by shifting recorded audio appropriatly. Am I mistaken or is there something I might be doing wrong? Does anyone else have this problem? I've noticed references to driver delay settings and the likes but these are all under 0S 9. I am using Logic 6.3 with a MOTU 24 I/O on OS X. Thanks in advance, Tas. |

It seems there is a 3.5ms delay. Does changing your buffer size affect the resultant delay in this test? (I expect not). This might be converter latency, though 3.5 seems like a lot. I'm on Logic5/PC, and deal with similar issues, though I have no firsthand knowledge with the Mac versions. FWIW, here is a post/thread that might give you a hint, or not: http://www.google.com/groups?selm=MP... sbcglobal.net You should also try the Logic User Group at Yahoo groups. - Brian |
