First of All, What is Latency? Latency is another way of saying delay. So in sound and audio-cards, latency means a delay in your audio. This can be an annoying inconvenience. You may not be able to cure it all together but you can reduce it so low as that you cannot feel or hear the effects or alternatively use hardware monitoring.
Read below for some tips on how to reduce and get let lower latency
How can I get lower latency ?
There are three ways.
- Use hardware monitoring. If you need to apply realtime effects from the computer or use VSTi then you need to do one of the following.
- Lower the buffer size of your audio-card and ensure your using an ASIO driver. You need an audio-card with an ASIO driver and low latency support.
- Use a higher samplerate. When you double the samplerate you half the latency as your using the buffer up twice as fast.
