Latency with Microphones and Soundblaster Audigy Soundcard
Hello everyone, I am using a Soundblaster Audigy 2zS Soundcard in Windows 7, and whenever I plug in a microphone, be it USB or direct, I get latency when listening to it through headphones , and that causes problems when recording, mainly that the echo is very distracting. Does anyone know why this is? To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
Re: Latency with Microphones and Soundblaster Audigy Soundcard
Its very strange that even a USB mic give you latency. Can you set the buffer size of the sound blaster? I don't no how accessible its control panel are as I don't have one. That is why I love focusrite soundcards, because they have a direct monitor function. This by pass the pc and you here what you recording directly. Anyway, I guess that something between the headphones and the master output is rong.

I couldn't find anything about the buffer size in the Creative Audio Console. -Original Message- From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Aidan Maher Sent: 17 January 2013 18:18 To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: Latency with Microphones and Soundblaster Audigy Soundcard Its very strange that even a USB mic give you latency.

AHello Samuel, I think you need to be monitoring the microphone input not the main output. This is where the delay is coming from. If you are already doing this, we need to look further.

Hello Joe, what I am doing is to choose the microphone in recording devices, choose properties, and choose to listen to the device. I saw a youtube video on how to reduce the latency, however that was with a realtech soundcard, and I am not sure of the Creative equivalent to the Realtech sound manager. -Original Message- From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Joe P Sent: 17 January 2013 22:44 To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: Latency with Microphones and Soundblaster Audigy Soundcard AHello Samuel, I think you need to be monitoring the microphone input not the main output.
