Presonus Quantum 2 + Monitoring Latency - Solution here?

[BScout]

To be simple and to the point on this:

LLM does not work if your audio interface doesn't have hardware monitoring. LLM requires that of your hardware.

Gah. Ok. Thanks for clarifying.

Well, at least the info and clarification is now in this thread, easy to find etc for the next person in my situation...

And to further confuse the matter, even some interfaces that do have hardware monitoring, don’t necessarily work with LLM.

Unfortunately it’s not as simple as that, but as BScout mentioned, it’s definitely not going to work without on board HW monitoring.

At this thread below I have noted that some folks have found cheap mixers just to monitor directly with:

So it might not be cost prohibitive. My question on that is - how would you hook up this gear purely to monitor with no latency and control the level of your backing track, without compromising the other functionality of the Quantum? ie would you need to take up valuable line input real estate? (ie I am using all 8 of mine, it's perfectly set up for my purposes... I don't want to lose any of those).... I also don't want to double up on preamps as I am using my own...

That may be a dumb question but honestly it's obviously pretty dumb that a) the Quantum doesn't have hardware monitoring, sh__ itself when using LLM and I guess I was dumb for presuming it would have at least the functioning of a firewire interface from 2010... heh!

Got an example for you about this 'no hardware monitoring/play through' business. MOTU in it's interfaces that use their AVB system dropped hardware monitoring which was in their older interfaces. It still exists in some of their current interfaces but not their new 'high end' stuff. It's for idiocy like this I keep an old Mackie Onyx 1220 mixer around.

I am a little confused .. does buffersize depends on computer specs? I have an Late 2015 Imac with some sata disc .. I put 24 GB Ram total in it, and has always been recording fairly VI heavy stuff with a buffersize at 64 or as now with my ind.mbox 3, 32 in Pro Tools and 16 in Studio One .. Im a tech braindead.. am I missing something?

If you can run at 32 buffer in Pro Tools I will sell my whole big studio and get an old iMac and an Mbox3 like you. Buffer side has nothing to do with Ram memory.
