[Rwp] An issue with lag

[Michael Taboada]

Hi,
This is just a guess, but does your soundcard/mixer/interface support 
asio? If not, there's a free utility called asio4all, which will make it 
so any card can use asio even if its drivers don't natively support it. 
If you're not using asio there will be major lag, but asio makes it 
pretty much unnoticeable.
Hth,
-Michael.
