Re: Bad quality recording

All soundcards have some latency simply because the audio data can not get from the audio input to the hard drive, or from the hard drive to the audio output "instantly". USB devices tend to have greater latency than PCI audio devices, and require more resources, but this should not be a p...

But then Amplitube is connecting ...
