Multi-instruent problem - latency issues?

I have set up a multi-instrument in the logic environment to use Triton sounds with Logic. I have the 'local setting' on the keyboard off, and the sounds are coming through to Logic on their MIDI channels correctly. It sounded fine but i couldn't capture the sound as it was not going out of logics 'Stereo Out'. So i sent it through an Aux and to Logics 'Stereo Out'. The sound now comes through twice, a fraction of a second apart.
I thought routing the multi through an Aux to the 'Stereo Out' would have just routed the sound there, but it seems to have just split the path, and the sound goes down both. Is this correct? Im guessing the sound coming out of Logics 'Stereo Out' is the sound thats a fraction of a second late.
It has just occurred to me that when i bounce, i should only get one sound, with a small latency delay. But with regards to writing music, its not really workable. Particularly with short punchy sounds, it sounds awful.
I suppose I could not send it to the 'Stereo Out' until Im ready to bounce. Does it sound like ive done something wrong, or is there a way to silence the sound that is not going through Logics 'Stereo Out'?

M-Audio interfaces have a questionable reputation for so-so drivers. MOTU, Presonus, Focusrite, Apogee, Roland, Edirol, Lynx, RME, TC Electronics and E-MU have better reputations.

VLC audio problems on T400 - DPC Latency Issue?

Hi Folks,
When I try to use VLC player to play any video on my T400, I get audio stutters and other strange effects. I'm wondering if it might have to do with all the audio DPC Latency issues this model has had. Does anyone else have these issues? Windows media player seems to work just fine, by the way. DPC Latency is high when either program is playing, but remains high when VLC has paused playback (whereas windows media player doesn't induce high DPC Latency when paused).
I've tried tweaking the buffer of VLC player, and a million other things, but nothing seems to help. Hence my suspicion of DPC Latency issues.
Thanks,
Allie

Latency issue Logic pro 9.1.3.

Hey,
At the same time as upgrading to Logic from Garageband
I bought a Cakewalk Roland UA25EX ext usb soundcard because i was told
i'd have latency issues if i used the caps lock keyboard for midi
or direct input thru the input jack of
my MacBookPro
(5,3 Intel Core 2 Duo 2.8 GHz)
Sometimes i use the caps lock keyboard to sketch in midi ideas and mostly it's ok.
Other times it's delayed and there's no smile on my face.
When recording with guitars/303/generators DI thru the soundcard
I have latency issues that don't seem to be very regular.
Sometimes it's worse than others.
I make sure i have nothing else running on the computer,
just Logic Pro 9.1.3, so it's not like i'm overloading macbrains.
I have tried all the rebooting, i/o buffer size changing (down to 256), headfones from the mac output/headfones from the soundcard/ etc
but still no luck.
I can record with the low latency button on
and it's kind of better, nearly, but that means i don't get to record with the effects on the channel strip
that affects the recording/playing quite a lot, as i'm used to recording with effects/guitar amps if i go DI.
This was the selling point - that i could record DI wthout disturbing Thee Neighbours.
It seems to have gotten worse recently.
I wonder if it's been corrupted somehow because it also has been acting funny when i bounce down -
the play head is set to 1111 and i save - then in the bounce window
the start position says a silly random number and it takes a few attempts of fiddly changes to get it to stay at 1111...frustration!
Is there something i can do or is this normal? -
it seems weird that a Pro app that cost me so much £s wouldn't work in a simple recording/bounce down set up?
or has anyone else had this problem and fixed it?
If i wipe Logic and install again would i have to go from my Logic Express and then up to my Logic Pro upgrade/extension again?
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Hey Fox,
Thanks for that info -well umm, yes i installed the correct drivers.
I use just the AU plugins or the basic logic ones on the channel strip
but even when i was going in dry there was still a delay.
I had experimented with the buffer size, as mentioned, but not gone down that low cus
last time i tried that i had other strange things happen!
But i will try again.
Sample rate was at zero, btw. Always says zero.
But today, when i just opened logic, the sample rate had changed. Strange. I need to understand this side of things so i'm gonna read up.
Also, if plugins are involved, i installed some novation bass station and some freeware TAL bass synth
stuff recently but don't have them up when i'm recording.
Maybe they sit there quietly and interfere just by their facial expressions or sumthing!!
I booted Mr MBP just now and i pulled out the USB and he's shining me a big ole red optical light
out of his output jack!!
In SysPrefs it has only optical digital as an output option.
In the last few days as i was playing around trying to correct the latency issue i noticed that the output options had changed to the UA25 and the 'digital optical' options - rather than the UA25 and 'line out'.
I'm off to go and read up on how to get my line out back, and try this buffer thing again.
Thanks again

Video Latency Issue On The Mac Book Pro 2.4 With Leopard 10.5.5

Gear: Macbook Pro (early 2008 model) - 2.4gigs cpu 2gigs ram - all the latest updates... no other applications running during the test
Hi folks. Currently I am having a latency issue when trying to record directly into iMovie using the built-in microphone and iSight camera. Basically, the video seems 5 - 7 frames late to the audio. I found that a good way to demonstrate this issue was simply doing a few handclaps as a test.
This is a quick handclap test displaying some video latency during recording with the iSight camera in iMovie 08.
- Just download this link — and import it into iMovie 08 - Here is a link to a zip file that you can import into iMovie 08 - It's 2.5meg - .m4v export - Also it was recorded as standard format and audio midi setup app: audio was set to 44.1:
http://www.brainbeast.com/37/clap-1-large.zip
- Play from beginning. As soon as you hear a clap sound — pause with the space bar - then back up before the clap with the left arrows
- Then click the right arrow several times until you hear the beginning of the clap sound ( This is the audio: start frame)
- Now — you will notice the video still has an open hand. At this point click the right arrow, counting as you go several times until you see the hand close. This is the amount of frames that the video is late to the audio. For me it seems to be an average of about 5-7 frames late.
Unfortunately iMovie 06 nor QuickTime will not scrub audio as you go frame by frame with the arrow keys so you cannot test it there. If you have some other application such as final cut Pro, you could test it with that.
! IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO PERFORM THE TEST YOURSELF:
- Just record a new movie in iMovie 08 - using the built-in mic and i-Sight camera — and see if it is also slightly out of sync
Note: to be as fair as possible — I did a slow handclap ( in order to not challenge the frame rates) - also, in order to get the maximum volume I used an open palm ( clap on the palms with your fingers spread out as you can see I did.)
Please let me know if this latency appears to be the same for you as it does for me.
Q: Is it just my machine or does it happen to you too?
Q: Does anyone know a way around this latency issue?
Q: Does anyone know if Apple is aware of this latency issue?

I am experiencing the same incredibly frustrating problem as well. When I record directly into iMovie
'08, the video lags the audio by a fraction of a second.
I have tried shutting down all other applications and having only iMovie up. Same problem.
I tried recording the video into QuickTime instead of iMovie and experienced the same problem. (Which makes me think it is perhaps a hardware or operating system issue.)
I tried the technique suggested here and on other sites of "double-dragging" the clip from the Events pane into a project (one normal drag and one Shift+Cmd drag) so that I had the audio and video as two separate tracks. After muting the audio on the video track, I then attempted to slide the audio over to sync it with the video, but even down at the 1/2 second zoom setting I didn't seem to have enough granularity to move the audio so that it was exactly in sync with the video. I was wishing I could use the arrow keys or something like that to move the audio just one frame at a time.
All I want to do is record a video directly into iMovie '08 - this would seem to be something trivial to do!

Mouse latency issues

Hey guys,
I've just updated to Yosemite. Since then I've noticed that my mouse (trackpad) has serious latency issues. Very slow to react.
Any suggestions on how to fix it?
Dan

I am having this problem too.
Especially on Steam, when I am playing CS:GO I can notice a significant delay between my mouse moving and what happens on screen.

Snow Leopard - Latency issues when waking from sleep

I own two macs ('09 mini and unibody macbook), both of which connect wirelessly to an airport extreme N router. Since upgrading to Snow Leopard I have been dealing with terrible latency issues when the computers wake from sleep. Ping times from local servers increase from around 23ms to 220ms and webpages load slowly. A quick reboot solves the issue. Connecting directly to the airport extreme with a patch cable also solves the latency issue so I know it's just with wireless.
Has anyone else experienced this problem since upgrading and, if so, what are you doing to solve the issue?
Edit: Samples of ping times...before and then after a reboot:

I use Ethernet so I cannot comment but have you tried trashing the airport pref.plist and removed the preferred networks in the network set up in System Preferences and then set up the wifi connection again?
This seems to help with a lot of airport problems on this forum.

AA3 Rewire latency issues...

Why is it when I Re-Wire AA3 with anything, Reason4 for example, when I load redrum there will be a 50 msec delay or so when i hit the pads before I hear it. Im tired of this. The reason I use AA3 with beat production is for recording samples, guitar, etc on top of whatever midi is in Reason. Plus, I like to mix in Adobe. Well, I LOVE Reasons mixer but I hate Fruity Loops and when I use that I like to use Adobes mixer. But whats up with this latency? This hasnt always been a problem and I cant think back to when it first started. It worked fine when I used my Fast Track Pro to record, now in addition I have a Fast Track Ultra8r that is used most of the time and ive never had any latency issues in adobe itself or reason by itself on this computer.
Is aa3 really that much of a resource hog? Anyone else have the same problem or any ideas?? I cant play keyboard when i hear the sound 2 secs after i hit a chord it reaallly messes with my ears and throws me off beat. It would be cool if this happened during post production where I could just up my sample rate. but its happening while recording.

Most obvious to try first is to try changing the I/O buffer size - go into the Audio/MIDI Setup (Applications>Utilities>AudioMIDI setup) and adjust there. Generally speaking you're looking for the lowest value you can get away with before you start to experience digital distortion and drop-outs. I think the default setting is 512 samples - you should be able to reduce it quite a bit depending on your computer's processing power. Hope that helps.

New iMAC giving huge latency issues.

HI everybody,
Im new to these forums as I have just recently purchased an iMAC, 3.06Ghz, with 6 GB of RAM for my studio.
Before this I was running an INtel based pC with Pentium processor, which worked as fairly well and absolutely without any latency issues.
Here's the problem:
i hooked up a MAckie ONYX 1640 mixer with Firewire I/O into the iMac and setting anywhere between 64 samples to 128 samples shows me theoretical latency of between 5 to 8 Ms, which is alright, I used to work with similar settings on the OC and it is hardly percievable. The problem is , the Latency sounds much higher!!
Its definitely not 8 Ms. and with lower buffer sizes, obviously the audio starts clicking and popping.
I then hooked the iMac with my Presonus Firebox which iv used smoothly with the PC for three years, without ever having latency issues...but this time too, the IMAC is adding latency and audi coming back from the DAW is very percievably late. Definitely around 25-30 Ms at such low buffer sizes!
Can someone help me out here, in case there s any optimisation to be done for the mac to make audio its top priority etc, and to better performance?
Highly appreciated!
Much thanks

You poor boy!
Apparently you had some unrealistic expectations.
Many
plugins
just NEED
a lot of
latency
to calculate the processing to the sound. In fact, there is a rough law stating that you can't have top sonic quality and NO latency using software only, especially mastering compressors and reverbs.
You could try the *Low latency mode* button, it also immediately shows you which plugins have a significant latency, as they will be bypassed in LLM.
This is especially true for 'high end' plugins like Space Designer, AdLimiter, Multipressor and a whole load of others. If you need reverb on voice just to have a 'moral support' when recording, choose a 'simpler' reverb, or, better even, use direct monitoring and a HARDWARE reverb that only adds reverb to the monitoring path.
Plugins are meant more for mixing than for tracking.

WTR310N Latency Issues

I have the WTR310N router, and all of a sudden, I have started experiencing huge latency issues overnight. When I connect directly to the Cable Modem, I am at ~100ms, and when I connect to the router, I am between 1200ms and 2500ms. I have rebooted the router, rest the router, and restarted my computer several times and in various orders. The results are the same each time. This happened last night around 10 PM instantly and has degraded ever since. No changes were made to the computer nor to the router configuration so I am stumped here.
Anyone have any ideas or suggestions that might help me solve this issue?
Thanks and I appreciate all the help I can get.

Well first thing which you need to try is to upgrade the firmware of your Router, Go to website linksysbycisco.com/downloads.........insert model no of your router in serach tab......select proper version of your router........download the firmware file......save that file on desktop...
Follow these steps to upgrade the firmware on the device : -
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on a computer hard wired to the router...
In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1...Leave the username blank & in password use admin in lower case...
Click on the 'Administration' tab- Then click on the 'Firmware Upgrade' sub tab- Here click on 'Browse' and browse the .bin firmware file and click on "Upgrade"...
Wait for few seconds until it shows that "Upgrade is successful" After the firmware upgrade, click on "Reboot" and you will be returned back to the same page OR it will say "Page cannot be displayed".
Now reset your router :
Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...
Once you Re-Configure all the settings on your Router, i think this might solve the Problem.

Ping/latency issues.

I've recently had my line upgraded from a 500k to a 2500k ip profile, and for a short period of time it worked great, consistent speeds etc. Roughly a week ago my ip profile was lowered to 2000k, at which point I suffered frequent broadband connection drop out, phone call after phone call ensued and now my improved ip profile has returned however I am receiving in excess of 300ms ping (according to several different online testers) which has rendered almost every online application useless. Any ideas?
P.S I recently had an engineer to run teests on the line and he reported no faults, I don't understand the problem.

Hmm i've never made anything worse (as far as ping/latency) issues are concerned by restarting my router (Even though I get a 15ms ping so I wouldn't know). The only thing (which I know of) that will be disrupted by restarting your router is the DLM but that shouldn't do anything over 1 restart.
A hub reset will also force dynamic IP setting from the RAS, most if not all ping issues are to do with which RAS you are connected to, and the traffic on the backhaul.
High latency can be experienced at level 32 interleave, noticeable especially on gaming.
Dynamic Line Management runs constantly and only changes the connection if it is "flapping"...
A re-sync makes no changes to line configuration, other than to sync at the highest possible rate for the line condition.

T530 and win8 latency issues

I have a Thinkpad T530 (2392-3JG) with a clean installation of Windows 8. I have been experiencing some gaming issues, when once in a while my ping rises to 500ms. I tested the issue by pinging my default gateway, and the lowest ping was 3ms, climbing to 500ms once every 15 seconds or so. I tried the same test on my win7 installation on another partition (but on the same machine), it does something similar, while ping jums "only" to about 300ms. On my sister's computer I get a constant 1ms ping to my default gateway, as it should. Therefore I think the problems must be somewhere in the drivers.
I downloaded the Intel Wireless LAN (11agn) drivers from this site: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=HT072084

I followed these steps and my latency issue did improve by about 20% - 25% so thank you, I'm now getting a PING of around 75ms - 80ms.
But I would also like to know if there are any changes I can make to the WGA600N Gaming Adapter that would decrease my PING time even further.
Since I decreased the Beacon Interval and Threshold values on the router, should I also decrease them on the advanced settings page of the gaming adapter?
On this advanced settings page there are also the options of Aggregation enabling, Short GI enabling, and Extra Wireless Protection -- Which of these boxes, if any, should I have checked?
Also, should Frame Bursting be enabled on the router, and would enabling DMZ or QoS help any? If so, would I want to put the gaming adapter's IP address/MAC address into the DMZ/QoS or the PS3's IP address/MAC address?
Thank you for any further assisstance you can lend!

Bus latency issue

I am sure there is a simple solution to this ... I haven't found it on my searches yet.
In Logic 7.2 I am routing BFD auxiliaries to one bus and running some overall compression and eq. Now I have latency on the bus and it is lagging behind the rest of the tracks. What can I do to compensate and pull it back up to speed with the other tracks?

I am sorry no one has seen fit to help you with this problem however help is at hand please take time to read this very carefully. I believe this is your answer you seek, The reason I have gone into such depth is simple so that you will have a grounded understanding of how logic address the problem and also what plugs in Logic have Latency within them by default. Well here goes
Logic Pro 7.1: Full Plug-in Delay Compensation can cause late recordings and increased latency
In Logic Pro 7.1, if you set Plug-in Delay Compensation to All, any new tracks you record will be late and out of sync with previously recorded tracks. You may also experience increased latency when playing Audio Instruments live. Here are some concepts behind the issue and tips for resolving it.
About full delay compensation
One of the new features in Logic Pro 7.1 is full delay compensation across busses, aux channels, and outputs. This means you can place plug-ins that normally induce latency on busses, auxes, or outputs, and the audio routed through these plug-ins will be in sync with everything. Logic achieves this by calculating the amount of delay caused by plug-ins assigned to a bus, aux, or output, and delaying the streams sent to other busses, auxes, or outputs by an appropriate amount to line everything up. This ensures that all tracks will be synced to sample-accuracy.
Example scenario
To give you a better understanding of what's going on here, let's say you have a simple song with a few drum, bass, guitar, and vocal tracks. All the drum tracks are routed to a bus with several plug-ins inserted that together induce 500 ms of latency. The vocals are routed through another bus that has a set of plug-ins that induce 250 ms of latency, and the bass and guitar tracks are routed straight to the main outputs without going through any latency-creating plug-ins. If latency were not corrected, then the bass and guitar tracks would play 500 ms in front of the drums. The vocals would be 250 ms in front of the drums but 250 ms behind the guitar and bass.
With full delay compensation engaged, Logic Pro will delay the streams sent to the outputs for guitar and bass playback by 500 ms to line them up with the drums, and will also delay the bus the vocals are streamed to by 250 ms to line them up with the drums and guitars. The precise calculations are handled for each stream automatically. During playback and mixing, the delay created to compensate for plug-in latency is imperceptible, but it can cause problems if you do any tracking after turning on full plug-in delay compensation. These recordings will be late because of the delay that Logic imposes to compensate for latency. The degree of lateness will vary, depending on which plug-ins are in the signal chain.
Eliminating latency
There are several ways to deal with these latency issues. The best way is to simply avoid setting up any signal routing that involves using plug-ins that create latency on busses, auxes, or outputs until you are done tracking. Once you start mixing, go ahead and set up any routing you like, including setting Plug-in Delay Compensation to "All."
If you can't avoid recording tracks after setting up such a routing scheme, then bypass any plug-ins you have on busses, auxes, or outputs that create latency, and change your delay compensation setting from "All" to "Audio tracks and instruments" while you are recording. You can quickly bypass plug-ins by Option-clicking on their inserts in the Track Mixer. You can toggle the Plug-in Delay Compensation setting by choosing Logic Pro > Preferences > Audio > General, or by setting up a key command for "Plug-In Delay Compensation: All." This key command will toggle the delay compensation setting between "All" and "Audio tracks and instruments." When you finish recording, re-enable the plug-ins on the busses and toggle the delay compensation setting back to "All."
Note: Bypassing plug-ins on Outputs will not eliminate the latency that they create. To eliminate it, you must remove these plug-ins entirely from the Output's insert slots.
If you are recording audio, another strategy would be to choose Audio > Audio Hardware & Drivers, then disable Software Monitoring. You would then need to monitor your recording via an external hardware mixer, or third party software mixing application that may be provided with your audio interface. When Logic is not providing software monitoring of incoming audio, then it can correctly position audio recordings even when full delay compensation is enabled. It is important to note that this technique will not help with recording Audio Instruments.
For the same reasons as described above, you may get increased latency when playing Audio Instrument tracks live if the delay compensation is set to All. As with recording audio tracks, try to complete any Audio Instrument recording for a song before turning on the full delay compensation. If you find it necessary to add a new audio instrument recording after setting up a signal routing that involves latency-causing plug-ins on busses, auxes, or outputs, then follow the same advice stated above for adding recorded audio. You may also notice that the meters on busses, auxes, or outputs that have delay-compensated plug-ins will not be in sync with the tracks that are routed through them—however, the audio will be sample-accurate. Additionally, the Song Position Line's visible position will not be compensated. Unless you are using an exceptionally large set of delay-compensated plug-ins, this should not be particularly noticeable.
Another effect with delay compensation set to All is that MIDI tracks triggering external sound modules will be out of sync. This is because Logic has no direct control over the audio output of external devices. A possible solution for this would be to route the audio outputs from the external MIDI devices to inputs on your audio hardware and monitor them through Logic. This way, the audio streams from the MIDI devices can be compensated during playback. Using Logic's External instrument to route MIDI to your external devices is an ideal way to work in this situation.
Here is a list of Logic plug-ins that cause latency:
Adaptive Limiter
Limiter
Multipressor
Noise Gate
Silver Gate
Linear Phase EQ
Match EQ
EnVerb
Space Designer
Denoiser
Pitch Correction
Pitch Shifter II
Vocal Transformer
Some third-party Audio Unit plug-ins may also cause latency—refer to the user guide for the respective products to see about this. All plug-ins that run from DSP cards such as the PowerCore or UAD card have inherent latency. Logic Pro compensates for the latency of any of these third party plug-ins, but as with Logic's own plug-ins, avoid assigning those that exhibit latency to busses, auxes or outputs until you are finished with tracking.
You may also find that simply bypassing plug-ins that run from DSP cards will not be sufficient to correct the latency they induce. If you are using these plug-ins, there are a couple of ways to deal with this. One would be to remove the plug-in entirely while you are recording tracks, and then re-insert them when you're done recording. Be sure to save your settings for each of these as a preset first, so that you can recover the appropriate settings when you re-insert them. Taking this idea a bit further, you could save the entire channel strip setting for each bus, aux or output that uses plug-ins that cause latency and then easily reassign everything for each channel in one go.
I hope you will get something useful from this good luck

Digi002R latency issue with Logic

I am having latency issues with my Digi002R and Logic Express. I read up here somewhere on the forum that if you initiate the Digi Core Audio manager first, set the buffer size to say 128, and then launch Logic it should sort out the latency issue. But I am still having problems. When I open Logic and set the buffer to 128, there seems to be the same latency as there is at 512. I have the lastest audio drivers. Is there something else I am not doing that can correct the latency issue. I hope the answer isn't get another audio interface. I see that there are other users on this forum that have had no issues with there Digi002R. I know that it isnt very compatible with CoreAudio, but there must be some way to resolve this issue.

Hi,
I have the same unit as you, and did extensive latency tests.
I know that it isnt very compatible with CoreAudio, but there must be some way to resolve this issue.
This is false. Digidesign makes both the software and the hardware. It is completely compatible. You might have to get a different version CS update from Digidesign, but since you are not giving me the Core Audio software version, I can't tell you if you do need an update, or not. So far Digidesign has gone to version 7.3.1cs4, which is a recommended update for ALL users. Is this what you are running?
Here's the link to an excel spreadsheet and a PDF version as well:

Check my spreadsheeet to see what I got as far as latency, and see if you can also do the latency test. I really want to see what numbers you are actually getting on your system, so I can update my spreadsheet as well.
Cheers

VPN latency issue

Hi,
I have a client who tries to connect through Cisco VPN client but he faces a latency issue.When he connects through VPN his download becomes 1Mbps and his internet speed is 15Mbps.He tried to ping to my gateway where the VPN terminates on ASA both by connecting to VPN and by disconnecting from VPN .i.e., Internet.He observed that the ping response is around 750ms when he tries through VPN and it is 15ms when he does it without connecting through VPN.He even tried using Anyconnect but he faces the same issue.
I am not sure where exactly the problem could be.
He is facing this issue randomly in a day and it just gets normal after sometime.
Can someone give me any kind of idea where to look for.

easiest to troubleshoot from the client, start checking the client's Jabber logs and run wireshark
