Low Latency Mixing

While recording, if you notice a delay between the moment you play or sing a note and when you hear

it in your headphones you are experiencing latency. Maestro’s low latency mixer may help and can be

conﬁgured by clicking the Mixer tab in Maestro.

A bit of background information concerning latency and computer-based digital recording setups will

help you better understand these functions.

When recording with most computer-based digital audio applications, the delay between the input

and output of the recording system often disturbs the timing of the musicians performing. This delay,

known as latency, means that the musician hears the notes played a few milliseconds after having

actually played them. As anyone who has spoken on a phone call with echo knows, relatively short

delays can confuse the timing of any conversation, spoken or musical.
