hey man, i have a audio interface and i record vocals thru it, but whem i'm recording, my voice is in sync on the headphones, but on the recorded track on ACID is out of sync. is it the same problem?

[jacksonwonderful]

@NovoSomProducoes yes.

[MrDillon45]

Is there any way to make a bass drop on Acid?

[jacksonwonderful]

@MrDillon45 yeah, a million different ways. the same way you would in any other program using VST instruments.

[jacksonwonderful]

@MrDillon45 then you're not ready to make bass drops. read up on the basics of production, vsts, lfos, portamento, etc until you can work the whole process out, start to finish.

i have my turntable to my mixer then that to my audio interface but for some reason everything comes a second late, its fine for sampling but i cant begin to record scratching because its like a second late :/ cant get it to be on point at all

[jacksonwonderful]

@TheGhettostylus Does ableton have any support?

[sixthview]

Very nice. The Latency has been killing me for years. To step up your method, I just pushed my boom mic up towards the speaker and recorded the metronome itself and zero'd in that way. Thanks so much for your help!

acid pro 4.0 is the best for regular recording, i just transfer session to more current version to mix more

[MrDillon45]

@jacksonwonderful I don't even know how to do that.. What are those?

[djkoolaideradio]

thax bro.. helped loads man..

had to go to 207 to line it up...

was better if i used a drumbeat rather than the metronome ....

using a soundblaster thx soundcard but my guitars were coming in late when recording, then had to spend time lining them all up...very frustrating and time consuming...

cheers for help my friend...
