Hi, I tried googling this, but every answer I'm reading is over my head. Buffer Size is something people advise changing. But for reference, I don't know what a buffer is nor do I know how to find my buffer settings. Someone else said to watch your CPU/HD meter, and I again don't know what those are, nor how to change them.

Let me explain...
I decided to check how the latency was with the fireface 800 I just got.
I'm set at 512 and decide to do a round trip through my 2 LA-610.
The chain was, line out of the RME, line in of the LAs, AD96 and S/PDIF to the RME.
I took a drum sample that I played and recorded the re-amp version.

it was always crackling and popping, then i went through PreSonus's optimization for windows 7 page and it seemed to fix the problem, except when i try using midi (my whole reason for buying the product... sigh..)

Hi Guys! I'm running the same setupt for 2 years now and I never had any issues concerning VST Performance. 2 days ago I moved and then I re-installed my setup in my new home and problems appeared..

Has anyone noticed any problems with performances because of recording latency? I've tried using Logic to record vocals, and the singer had real problems (and rightly so!). I usually use PT for this, and I've noticed it's much tighter, but obviously there will be some delay involved.
