A friend was saying he could record his guitar with vst effects, but that he could'nt hear them in real time, only after the recording was done. I can hear my effects in real time while recording in Sonar. Acid ought to be able to do the same thing, right? The latest review I saw, the writer was impressed what a complete package Acid is now. Is my friend just not doing it right somehow?

ACID Pro 6 now has "Input Monitoring". Provided you have low latency ASIO drivers, you should have no problem monitoring with FX. I've used Trash before, with ACID Pro 6a @ 128 samples (2ms latency), in realtime, without any problelms. No different than other audio host apps I've used (like SONAR 5.2) that have input monitoring. I suspect your friend is either not doing it correctly or he is not using ASIO drivers @ low latency.

Cheers,

Billy is correct. ACID can input monitor through FX but only if configured to use ASIO drivers. (The latency/sync issues with the Mapper or Wave drivers don't permit reasonable input monitoring.)

Hey, watch out for that Acid stuff man...I couldn't get into the airforce because of that shit.

Any Acid-heads around? Question about direct monitoring.
