Ok, now i understand what you mean., i did explain why zero latency doesnt exist in the first post, and that's cause it's physically impossible.Hink wrote:Hi Mrforum, and welcome to kvr...you still didn't explain the comment that there is no zero latency...and you're right, through a soundcard there isn't, but with direct monitor there sure is...but for a while (until I gave my mixer to my son) I used this method on vocalsMrForum wrote:My latency goes down to 2.66ms, when recording audio and playing a song., and both things at same time., well., it says its 2.66ms., i didnt measure it, i trust kx asio =P'origami wrote:thanks to you too, MrForum. But do you record voice in FL? if so, what's your latency then?
But., when cpu goes beyond 60% i have underrunds., but., that's not bad.., cause my cpu is an athlon 1200,256ram pc133 and cannot handle a lot of effects or instruments., but the fact is that with low cpu usage., i can use asio with 2.66ms., i have a sound blaste live value.
As i said, for a safe operation and avoid underrunds, i use 20ms to make my songs & record from my midi keyboard., but when it comes to voice recording i use another app, i mean., i open 2 apps., fl & audio recorder., i play the song in fl., with 20ms., and I record my voice with the other app., doing this i achieve 20ms in FL, but in the other app i record using "Primary Sound Driver", when i finish my voice recording, i import it to fl as an audio track.
I like voice very syncronized with music, i even split my voice in separated words and make them fit at exactly music tempo.
PD: In my last post i tried to explain that "zero latency" is really a "near zero latency".
at first the benefit was being able to momitor my vox with effects but recording dry...however I realised that monitoring with effects didn't help my vox, but was quite misleading...now I just use the direct monitor on my card...but if you look the picture over you will see the logic and why this is zero latency (within reason...maybe 1/100th of a millisecond)
My post is just a comment, don't take it like i'm trying to contradict you.
I was trying to show that even direct monitor (1/100th of a millisecond) latency., isnt a zero-latency., it is a near zero.
May be this is obvious for you., but a lot of people thinks that zero latency is really zero, i mean, no time between one event and another.
I'm just beeing very strict with the meaning of 'zero' word, but it's ok to call 1/100th milliseconds zero-latency, that time interval is irrelevant for audio recordings I guess, that's not even a sample in 44.1khz.
May be one day, when cpus become more powerfull, we will be able to use our vsts with 1/100 latency.
Thanks for the welcome!! This is a nice forum, and very active! Have a good day =)
