Hello All,
I would like to listen with my headphones while recording, but am getting a 1 second delay in what I hear. I am using a USB mic to record and have my headphones plugged into the audio output jack. Any ideas? Thanks.

Re: Delay while monitoring recording
This is the only way to do that reliably. You have to listen to your mic or mixer, not the computer.
