It takes time for your audio to get into the computer, flow through the computer operating system, enter Band-in-a-Box and get recorded. That's called latency and there is no way around it. That's why Band-in-a-Box is not a good tool for audio recording. The workaround is to use an external audio interface with an internal mixer and a headphone jack. The mixer blends audio leaving the computer and audio entering the computer together. The mixer also compensates for latency so your audio matches the computer audio timeline so your audio is recorded correctly. The blended audio is sent to the audio interface headphone jack so you can correctly hear the computer audio and your audio. The Zoom, Roland, TASCAM handheld recorders are great for spur of the moment ideas. Some of them can also serve as an external audio interface when connected to your computer.
