Hello,

I'm recording vocals but i have a latency problem, the vocals dont seem to record along with the music, they are either in front micros seconds or behind, i'm using a US-122 BY TASCAM.. I ve looked at preferences but when i change buffer it goes well in front, if a choose zero it make aweful noise

The buffer setting should normally be about "100".
The setting to adjust is the "Track shift after record" (previously called "Latency correction"). See here for details: http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/devi ... ences.html
