Calculate 55x1000 which equals 55,000. Then divide 55000 by 44100 and get your 1.247 miliseconds or .001247 seconds. ....if its 56 samples, the delay is 1.27 milliseconds. That is not a lot of time. Like Stephentaylor said, how did you hear that besides playing it back against the original and gett...

Thank you both for your help -- some further tests, and some advice from MOTU, leads me to conclude that my Travelers' A/D and D/A converters are creating a 55 sample delay . . . Any idea how to calculate that in miliseconds? I'm recording at 44.1k. Actually the delay is closer to 56 samples, but th...

Thank you -- sounds like you feel w/real time, I should stick to grabbing and moving the files physically. Seems the easiest way, too. (I think I'll start putting a click down in the front of songs to match up tracks.) Do you think a latency will occur anytime I re-record something already down in D...

Thank you for the reply -- since I work only in real time I hadn't considered that I/O audio timing idea -- any advice for how to determine the number of samples to move, as I'm working in real time?

1/1000th sec latency bouncing tracks

Hi -- I'm wondering if anyone can help me figure out a latency problem. I am using Travelers between a Mac running DP (serving as tape), and an analog Mackie board. All my monitoring, tracking, and playback goes through the Mackie, just like old times. I am using DP and the Travelers as a substitute...

solved with defragmentation; now resurfaced

Thanks for everyone's help. The problem was solved with further defragrmentation/optimization/freeing up processing and storage space. Now, a few months later, it's resurfaced. I'm recording 7 tracks simultaneously (drums), it's been no problem on song after song. Suddenly, I can't get a take down w...

tried defragmenting; improvement but problem persists

Hi, thanks for the advice -- I have no effects on, I have tried turning voices off, and now I've defragmented/optimized the drive I'm recording to, and it seemed to ease the problem but not eliminate it -- latest attempt left me with a perfect track except for ONE dropout. So the problem is still th...

bass dropouts with multiple travelers

Hoping for some help/advice with the following: I'm running multiple (3) travelers with a PowerBook G4 -- I know I'm straining the system but I'm doing no processing, and monitoring and mixing analog . . . Here's the mystery: dropouts are cropping up in overdubbed bass tracks. I have not experienced...

I'm new to this board, does MOTU monitor and might they now treat this as a problem to solve with a future upgrade? It seems like a quorum here, that it's something in 5 not something in each of our set-ups . . . In any event, I'm going back to 4.6 for tracking at least . . .

second the problem

I am running into the same problem, which I also did not experience using DP 4.6 -- also running a PowerBook G4, but using very few tracks and no plug-ins -- tracks recorded to separate HD -- Could this be a bug of some kind?
