latency correction error when starting recording [SOLVED]

Post by suttlemyre » Sat Jun 04, 2016 5:44 pm

Just bought a new phantom powered condenser mic. When I try to add new traks to existing projects with new mic, I get message (latency correction setting has caused audio hidden before zero) Settings are buffer=100 correction= -130

Is it a USB microphone? What make/model?
If not a USB mic, how is it connected to the computer?

The message that you are getting is because the recording is failing as soon as it starts, which is creating a very short track that is "hidden" because it is entirely before time=0.
9/10 questions are answered in the FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ)

2.1.2 windows 10 mikes are run thru a Audiobox usb. It is not only happening with the new mike. Something will not allow me to add additional tracks now. project rate is 44100.
