<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Further to this, I found I can lengthen the latency
as much as I want, through the recording and playback latency controls.
but it won't change below a certain offset number. So if I put a big
number in there, I can increase the latency, but less than say 200MS it doesn't
seem to change at all. So my conclusion is that it's in the hardware and
or processing more than anything else.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>It's just odd that I can get that latency right
down to nothing in audacity by using a negative value in the record/play offset
fields.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Trust me, I've spent hours trying to tweak things
and I can get it to have a slightly lesser delay time, but still very large
compared to how it should be.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>The best way I've found to measure latency is to
run a sound source, like a drum machine, into the sound card, then use the
record monitor (F8) set to normal I think, and you can hear the huge latency
between the signal playing through the sound card, and reaper playing it through
the record monitor.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I do it this way because that is how one would
organize things during a multi-track over dub recording.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>It is possible I am missing something, but like I
said, I've done extensive tests to get rid of that latency and it just will not
reduce to less than a certain amount.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>did that...tried lots of different rates and it
does minimize it a bit, but still it's a good 200MS.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Look at buffering time, both on play back and
recording, and shrink those down to the lowest level that still provides
reliable performance. That will help a lot.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>at least in audacity you could taylor the
offset so that you ended up with very little latency...reaper doesn't
appear to have anything that will do that.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I've tried everything in reaper to offset the
latency that I could kill with audacity on the same machines using the
same sound cards.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Asio, WDM and direct sound and the rest don't
seem to make a whole lot of difference on my stuff...I'm still stuck with
probably a 2 or 300MS latency issue.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>What are you using for an
interface?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>If your not using a professional audio
device, or aren't in asio or wdm mode, then your timing could be
dodgy.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>It's the same problem with audacity a nice
multi-tracker that's free but because it doesn't support accepted low
latency high precission standards for recording, you have to set an
off-set which will vary with each sound card, and even then might not
work quite right.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>depending on what mode you are

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Hi, </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I have a problem with reaper. At least, i
think its a problem with reaper. 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.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Any help would be
appriciated.</FONT></DIV>
