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

[Indigo]

You'll get much lower latency if you buy a better soundcard, and only 
use the built-in RealTech for speech.
Someone else will need to advise what brand or model of soundcard, since 
my eMu 1616M  is out of production now, and I'd never steer anyone to 
eMu Creative company anyway, because of their terrible support.
Their  soundcards can be  great, but eMu offers no support at all; and 
their soundcard's control panel is not accessible.
There are plenty of other brands and models with good support and 
accessible control panels, someone else will know.
