joshuac Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Hello. I'm recording live guitar (direct audio) with electronic drums triggering a software drum module (EZ Drummer). The guitar seems to be late -- coming after the drum beats. I'm using the same settings I use to record guitar audio with existing midi tracks -- I/O 64 Samples, Software monitoring on, Compensation set to Audio and Software Inst but low latency unchecked. What settings would I need to change? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Is it late as you're playing? Or only upon playback? Make sure your recording delay in Logic's audio preferences is set to 0 samples? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshuac Posted November 21, 2011 Author Share Posted November 21, 2011 It is late in the playback. Yes, I may have left the Recording Delay at -40 samples which I use when I record live guitar (audio) with existing midi tracks (software instruments). Did I have the other settings correct? Again, I was recording live guitar (audio) with a drummer playing a Roland TD-4 drum kit which was triggering an EZ Drummer software instrument. Thanks!

David Nahmani Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 It is late in the playback. But not while you're recording it, correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshuac Posted November 21, 2011 Author Share Posted November 21, 2011 When we're recording there is no problem with latency. The sound of our instruments is responsive and not delayed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Do you have any plug-ins inserted in that project's mixer (anywhere on the mixer)? In Logic Pro > Preferences > Audio > General, under Plug-in Latency, what is "compensation" set to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshuac Posted November 21, 2011 Author Share Posted November 21, 2011 The Plug-in Latency was set to "Audio and Software Instrument Tracks" but the Low Latency button was not checked. There were no plug-ins used on any of the tracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
