Recording Lag... I think?

I dunno.
Experiencing issues and glitches/pops with networking stuff is common, but mostly between firewire and wireless cards since they share the same bandwidth or something. It's worth a shot though.

After my last computer upgrade I had a similar problem with my latency. At the time I had Sonar one one drive and I was using a different one for my audio files. All recordings sounded like shit. I changed my audio disc to make it the same location as the program and SNAP everything's perfect now.

Dunno if this'll help you or not.

Isn't the demo the full deal, only you can't save? That's what it seems like to me...

The FL demo is the full deal yeah. You can even save the stuff you make as sound files (export), just cant save something as a FL file.

sorry i don't have too many ideas about the problem left. have you tried recording directly into your computer via the 1/8" in jack and comparing that with the external device? that would at least tell you if it was the interface that was the problem.

Download and run the DPC LATENCY CHECKER here:
http://www.thesycon.de/deu/latency_check.shtml

This will help figure out if the latency is happening in your system or just with the interface. If you go into the red, then your having some sort of system problem. I suggest running the checker without any other programs and introduce your recording program etc and take note if you get any spikes.

This is getting irritating. I've posted at the Kristal forum, and am now sorting through the forums over at M-Audio. ASIO4ALL almost has everything working in FL. Almost. Unfortunately I have the buffersize maxed out, which presents a different set of problems of it's own.

did you use that DPC latency checker?

mezzio13 · Post by **mezzio13** » Tue Feb 17, 2009 1:28 pm

I was going to last night, but I watched this really shitty movie called The Man Who Came Back. Don't watch that shit bro, at all.

I DL'd that, Reaper and another latency utility from the M-Audio site. I'm waiting to get approved for their forum as well, not that I expect to get answers there either. I am seriously like a step away from getting a console and fucking all of this computer nonsense to hell.

if flstudio still doesn't work there is probably something effed with your computer and probably not the fault of the usb device

Which is a shame, since it's the best it's been running in years.

Dude, that latency checker is sweet. It's totally a problem with my PC. I'm having some conflicting drivers or summit. Oddly enough, my kids laptop is good enough to run stuff without any problems. Meh, now I have a shit ton of debugging to do.

did you shut off your internet jank?
what's awesome about the CHECKER is that you can run it with whatever you normally run, and then go and shut off things one at a time and see if it changes, so it's a very good tool for finding THE FACTS.
