Re: X32 Discussion
So I went and tried this on my Pro Tools 8 LE rig with a 003R. I had two mono audio tracks and the click track. I output the click track directly to one audio track, and bussed from the click to a 3-4 stereo headphone mix output (separate from main out 1-2). Had a mic plugged into the other audio track, and put the headphones up to the mic. First I recorded at 1024 buffer rate, so hearing the click back through the mic in real time had some serious delay, as expected. I recorded for 5 seconds to each track, then switched the buffer rate to 128 and did the same to thing for comparison.
Although lowering the buffer rate greatly decreased latency in monitoring, it made no difference to the outcome of recorded alignment. In both cases, the clicks were almost completely lined up. Only when I zoomed in as far as I could did I see the recorded track was just slightly off. Played back and switched between and could hear no delay what so ever.
I know we're getting off topic of the X32. I apologize, but we already have this conversation going so why not.
edit: Crap, I don't think I did it right. It needs to be a prerecorded click and not streaming at the same time maybe? I'll have to try that again.
