I cannot eliminate latency when monitoring. I don´t know if it´s an audacity or a windows 10 issue. Can you assist_??? Thanks
I cannot eliminate latency when monitoring.
You don’t. Your live voice from the computer is always going to be “one computer late.” That’s why you need to have a microphone, interface, or a mic-pre that has real-time or direct monitoring.
The earbuds are just for illustration. You would be using real headphones.
Sometimes you can force this to work by recompiling (re-building) the Audacity program with ASIO support. ASIO is a special software service that allows, most times, no delays in live monitoring from the computer. Have you ever compiled a Windows computer program?
If your goal is overdubbing or playing live music to a pre-recorded backing or rhythm track, then you will need to adjust the other latency. Recording Latency. That’s the one you’ve probably been messing with. If you get that one adjusted right, then the new live track will align perfectly with the backing track when you get to the end of one pass.
This is a Behringer UM-2 and it can do that live monitoring trick, too. In this case it’s used to hear yourself read for an audiobook without your voice wandering too far in volume or expression.
It is perfectly possible to do overdubbing without hearing yourself. That’s simple overdubbing. You have to use one of the physical methods of hearing yourself. That’s what she’s doing.
And that’s what he’s doing. That’s not a wacky old-time-radio gig. That works to cup some of your voice to your ear to make it louder. That’s actually multiple different jokes running at the same time. That show was pretty good about that.
