Could someone tell me how I could not hear myself through my mics while recording?

[MoralSupport]

I only want to hear myself after I record, not while I am recording. I have tried turning "Live Input Monitoring" off and on, and neither worked. I just do not want to hear playback sound when I am playing, as the latency makes it impossible for me to play.

Quick way - just mute the track when you record. It'll record, just not come through the mix.

Live input monitoring is to allow you to have the source fed to it's output even when not playing/recording.

This didnt work, I can still hear myself when I mute each individual track :/

It may not be Waveform/Tracktion you're hearing it through. Is the mic going into a mixer first, virtual (soundcard) or physical?

Yeah, hard to give advice in this instance without having the full picture. The more components in the chain, the more chance for one of them doing something unexpected.

1. How is the mic connected - is it USB straight in?
2. Do you have an external mixer? Does it have USB? Or is it an analog mixer fed into an audio pair on the computer?
3. Are there any hardware effects (standalone or in the mixer) being used for vocal or overall audio (reverb/chorus, etc)?
4. Do you have voice processing on a separate track?
5. Are you using Tracktion racks?
6. What is your monitoring source - USB or audio back to a mixer and speakers, or through an audio interface, or just using computer speakers or headphone jack?
7. If using a computer audio interface, does it have direct audio monitoring enabled?
8. If using USB audio, are you using ASIO4All, or manufacturer's ASIO driver, or just native? If ASIO, what kind of buffering are you using?

I have 2 microphones plugged into Behringer Audio interface, which is then plugged in through a USB into my computer. I run my headphones through my computer, but I have also tried running it through the Audio interface itself, which changes nothing.

i guess you are monitoring through the interface also.
there is hardware monitoring (through your behringer interface) and software monitoring (live input monitoring in tracktion).

maybe post a photo of your behringer device frontplate with the settings and backplate with the cabling.
also a screenshot of tracktion settings-audio, to see which channels are active and chosen of the behringer interface.

with this infos someone here will be able to give you a short rundown on how to use your gear correctly.
