hi again, it's been a while since I tried to record something, anyway I have this problem, every time I record, there's always latency, I've ignored this for the past two years since I thought that maybe it was just my slow computer(i just moved the delayed track and sync it with the rest of the track) but I just want to know if latency is really something we have to accept when using usb interfaces? I've set the buffer size to 512 and I can't set it any lower than that...oh btw, the delay i'm talking about is when I turn monitor ON on a track where I'm trying to record something. Hope my explanation didn't sound off.
I'm using a windows 7 laptop, I3, 2gigs ram(used to be 3gigs but time has taken its toll on this lil fellah)
My real question is this, will a computer with a very powerful processor be capable of eliminating latency when using usb interfaces? Or would a firewire interface be better?
I ask this since I've decided to stick with windows and I plan to build a music production pc from the ground up....i'm looking for ideas on what parts to buy.
