Gurkah Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Hi, I'm sorry that this problem has been featured on this forum before. But since I've tried everything in the previous threads and still haven't found a solution I decides to start a new topic. I'm trying to use my Roland RE-201 Space Echo on a send in Logic, as usually done with delay effects. The problem is the latency. As I've come to understand you are suppose to put the I/O plugin on a bus channel and then creat an aux channel with that bus as input. This I have done. I've also put the Latencyfixer plugin on the bus channel after the I/O but there is still terrible latency. And what's even more strange i that it appears to be two delays. For example if I send a snare drum hit to the bus channel I get the original sound routed to the stereo out as well as two hits on the aux. I would really appreciate your help as I really don't know what to do. Best Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I've also put the Latencyfixer plugin on the bus channel after the I/O but there is still terrible latency. Have you tried using the Ping button in the i/o plug-in instead of the Latencyfixer plug-in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurkah Posted March 12, 2015 Author Share Posted March 12, 2015 Yes I've tried the ping button but it just says 0 samples even though I hear the delay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Yes I've tried the ping button but it just says 0 samples even though I hear the delay. You hear the delay with the Space Echo set with echo volume all the way down and input volume up? Can you detail your connections: how is the Space Echo connected to your Mac exactly, what input/output numbers, on the Apollo (I'm assuming)? What settings in the i/o plug-in? In Logic Pro X > Preferences > Audio, under the "General" tab, is your Plug-in Latency Compensation set to "All"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurkah Posted March 12, 2015 Author Share Posted March 12, 2015 Yes I can hear the delay. I'm using the instrument input on the space echo with the switch set to normal just to hear the round trip latency without any delay effect. I'm using output 3 (5 in logic) that goes in to the space Echo and then from the echos output in to the Apollo thru input 7. In logic plug-in latency compensation is set to All Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shivermetimbers Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 I have a RE-301 space echo. Everything works as expected with the I/O plug in on the original channel and on an Aux. What I can recommend doing is to set up a new project using single channel strip. Use the I/O Plug in on that channel. To keep thing simple, use i/o output 3 and return it to i/o input 3. Also check and software mixing you may have with the Apollo because you may be getting a direct and a processed signal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Studio162A Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 You really should check the Apollo's mixing software and make sure that the signals area getting to and returning from your outboard box. I suggest this because I've never had a ping result of 0. That indicates to me that something is amiss with your routing. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurkah Posted March 19, 2015 Author Share Posted March 19, 2015 I've muted the monitoring in apollos console but the problem remains. I still get 0 samples when I ping in the I/O-plug even though I can se the meters on the output channel and input aux responding. So strange Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Studio162A Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 So you get no return signal no matter what you do within the Apollo console software? Can you at least see a signal going into the Apollo software? Does the signal then make it to an output if you turn off the i/o plugin?

jordanbuffaloe Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I was banging my head against the wall before I realized my delay time was set incorrectly on my outboard effects. Remember to check your settings, especially on echo boxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
