1,5 seconds delay starting record
Hi there
When I hit record on 24 tracks, the system waits for ca. 1,5 seconds before the recording starts. Also, when I stop recording, it takes a while before the color on the tracks goes from the light red color to individual colors on the tracks. Can I do something to eliminate these offsets/delays, or do I have to live with it?

Re: 1,5 seconds delay starting record
It's been a while so I don't remember the proper term, but in the settings there is something called disk buffer or whatever. Levels from zero to five, if memory serves me right. If you set it to zero, it is instant but error-prone. Set it to larger number and you have more room for occasional latency hiccup, but it buffers your audio for some amount of time. Find that setting and try if it helps to change it.

Re: 1,5 seconds delay starting record
Ok, thanks Jfreak.
I just tried changing the Disk Buffer size on my Imac with 9.06, but there doesn't seem to be any difference. I will try it on my HD rig tomorrow. Cheers -Lars |

Re: 1,5 seconds delay starting record
check your Record Allocation Time setting
keep this setting as small as you can for maximum results
