Hi I had my first attempt at doing a user track last night and I've posted this there as well, but the traffic is probably greater here and it's more of a routing/latency problem. My guitar is out of time with the user tracks when I play it back. (As far as I know I'm in time normally when I play! ) I'm using the gear listed below. The guitar and vocals go through effects units into a mixer and into the PC via a USB3 interface. BIAB 2016 is going directly into the computer from the interface and I monitor it all on my headphones which are plugged into the USB3 interface. It must be a latency problem, but I can't figure out how to fix it. The USB audio interface has 3 settings. direct monitoring, mono, and stereo. Direct monitoring seems to be the closest, but I can't hear any guitar in direct monitoring when I record. I have noticed that sometimes my videos are also out of sync with the audio eg streetjelly and some video recording software as well. It must be a routing issue or I need to add some latency in BIAB, but I'm clueless as to where to start. Sorry if it's a bit vague. Anyone got any suggestions or ideas. Maybe if I put the BIAB through the mixer as well and turn of the internal looping?

What driver mode are you using and have you tweaked the settings for buffers and latency?
The interface website claims ZERO latency.... so the assumption would be that it should be possible to get Zero audible latency. The best driver to use is generally the ASIO driver if the unit supports that driver. I didn't see anywhere in the info I glanced at, where it specifically says it can use ASIO.....
I use ASIO with my interface and everything going through it runs in what I perceive to be "real time". Most of the time, latency of under 10ms is very hard to hear and when you get down to 6ms (where my system is running) it's impossible to hear it.
Check into the driver mode and your software's internal settings for audio and midi.
If you're running straight audio, that should not be a problem. Most latency issues I have seen come when you are using midi and softsynths.

You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Great. Thanks Herb. Also my apologies for double posting. As far as I remember, I can use ASIO with it. It is very fast. I read today that there were problems with upgrade 2.1 of the software, but it was fixed in 2.2. Again , I need to check which upgrade I'm on.
Whilst I love Zoom products they are very good at appearing to provide zero technical support. It is possible to get technical support, if you can figure out how to contact them....

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
