I have the latest version of Audacity loaded using an imac with the newest Monterey OS.
The out put meters have serious latency. When I solo a click track it doesnt respond with any consistency. Using my super old pc the meters are right on. I have run out of things to try that I know of. I cant use ausacity with my mac if this issue cant be solved. (My Imac has 32g ram and TB storage) Any thoughts? Is it the OS?
Thanks,
Russ
Monterey is in no way “latest” - this would be Sequoia15.1. But probably it is the latest system available for your Mac.
Latency is probably a combined result of the processor speed, the length of the path the electrons need to travel within the computer, the operating system and the application itself.
Since I do not know what you mean by “When I solo a click track”, I can’t help you with the specific problem you have, however. Maybe if you describe in detail to a non-professional (musically) and non-natively English speaking person?
I meant the latest version of Monterey
The meter is not following the music
Ex if you have a steady drumbeat the meters are not following that beat
It seems that the meter is way behind
