That was last year. Swore never again.
True HDX and even native were/are much better.
Glad it works out for you but it was a garbage experience for me.

That is a shame and would no doubt sour me also
I do wonder what was actually going on ? Or if perhaps there was some defect in your unit ?
I only ask because for example here is a demo I did for my new acoustic guitar, using 3 mics, a pair of ribbons and an FET LDC. Now granted the ribbons are actually phantom powered and did still require the gain to be up up at 3/4 or more..but all the mic tracks were in fact synced in my HPs when I set up levels, and also when I went to mix...

Then here is an example of using the DSP while tracking and then dubbing in the electric in between vocal phrases. Again with no delay issues in my HP's at all ,,, so other than my own playing timing,, the Carbon performed sans issue.
