The Legendary Zoltan Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 I've got this crazy lag problem. I record guitar with a Cakewalk UA-1G audio interface to go with some soundfont drums and then when I play it back the guitar is not just misalligned but the misallignment gets bigger and bigger. Meaning, I can allign the drums and guitar at the beginning of the song and they'll be alligned for a short while, but the guitar slowly starts falling behind. By the time I get to the end of the song, it's several seconds behind. I read on the net that the cause of this would be that the drums are using the computer's sound card while the guitar is using the USB interface. Is there ANY way to remove this accumulating sort of lag? I tried doing things, like trying to use the USB interface as the output for the soundfonts too, but that seems not to work. In fact, I can't make any audio go from my computer to the interface. It seems to only work as an input. I thought they were used for both though. Thanks for your help in advance. EDIT: It's working now. SWEET! I can finally record the way I've always wanted to. For some reason having all of the outputs set to the interface worked this time. And now it rocks. YES!

jmr Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 I've been having the same problem with my setup, never realized that it was because I was using my internal card and external interface simultaneously. Hopefully I can switch everything over to one; I'll give that a shot tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
