AuthorTopic: Audio performance and latency--Standalone vs. Effect

Hi,

I noticed something that I thought was interesting. I'm getting much lower latency if I use EnergyXT as an effect in Audiomulch rather than the standalone by itself. I can't remember the difference in settings, but it's something like 6ms vs. 24ms. I haven't tried the latest 1.25 version of the standalone. I guess I'd rather just use the standalone, since I'm not really using Audiomulch for anything else, but if it improves latency I'll continue to use it. Is there something I'm missing or doing wrong? Is it peculiar to my setup (Dell Inspiron 1100 laptop and Echo Indigo IO)? Thanks,

hi simart,
you might want to checkout this thread [HERE] (maybe jump to page 4), it's probably driving at the same issue and would be good to pool information?

cheers,

Thanks for the reference, it sounds like my problem exactly. I haven't tried ASIO4ALL on my laptop (never occurred to me!), and that sounds like a reasonable solution. Interesting. .
