[RWP] I'm having trouble with latency and reaper

[Indigo]

You certainly can manually subtract the latency in Reaper's latency offset.
It's near the end of the list you tab to in audio device, if I remember.
I haven't needed it, so can't give details how to use, but it has edit 
fields to enter milliseconds.
If you need less latency; enter something in those fields and report 
back if it helped.
That's a sledgehammer approach to a latency problem though.
What if the actual problem is lack of the latest USB midi driver, or too 
huge an audio buffer size; or a cheapo soundcard with large processing 
latency, it would be so much better to handle those first.

I can record all my tracks, and then go back to listen to them. for example, a drum track and piano track, and they are out of time. I know i've recorded them in time, and its starting to get a little old using wav files and mixing them down.
