      Question; if there is latency in the mics and you need to mute, why don't you get the same latency? If you do then how can you record song with drums and bass etc....? Thanks.

    I'm mentally putting together my home mini studio and I find that the more I learn what I need, the more questions I have. Fortunately I ran into your channel. You are answering my questions clearly and plainly. Thank you for clarifying what in the beginning for me was mystifying smoke.

  • @tunemxr480
    @tunemxr480 3 года назад +89

    To reduce latency for overdubs when recording through plug-ins, lower the buffer size in your DAW as low as possible (usually 64 samples.) While this setting is not always possible, depending on your PC/Mac CPU capability, 128 to 256 samples is almost always acceptable with a track or two with virtually any modern computer. Overdubbing is usually quite acceptable in the 5-10ms range a small buffer size offers. And always turn phantom power off and wait a few seconds to discharge the 12-48volts of current BEFORE unplugging a condenser mic to avoid a “pop” that could destroy a driver!

    I watched a number of these types of videos and what makes you the best is you aren't rushing nor taking too long to stress a point but most importantly you assume that the people watching already understand the lingo like DAWS. I watched a video before yours and they kept saying DAWS and never took the time to explain what it meant. But you do did and thats one of the many reasons why you're the best!

      This was a very informative video, use basic contextual awareness to understand that if a video about a USB audio interface mentions 'your screen' they are likely talking about your computer. They even specified the differences whether you were a windows machine or an Apple machine. You aren't plugging this into your toaster mate.

      I think the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 is a great start. That’s the interface I use in this video. You can get one for about $170.
      If that is outside your budget, the Presonus Audiobox USB 96 is a good option for just under $100.

    Question, please! Like lots of people, I love karaoke! Well, I can do this so easily with a mixer. Plug a mic into a Combo input, take my cell phone headset out, use a 1/8" to a split 1/4" cable, into inputs 3/4 of the mixer, and good to go. No go with this USB interface. How about a Scarlett 4i4? No go with it either, as the inputs in the back need LINE-LEVEL inputs and NOT from a cell phone! Now, one possible way out is this: plug the 1/4" jacks into the two Combo inputs, (will that work?) and record the background track on a stereo track on the DAW. Then, pull those plugs out, plug in a microphone, and then record on a new track alongside the background music.
    So the question is: can I take the headphone out from a cell phone or Tablet and plug in the split 1/4" jacks into the Combo inputs and get a good signal? Thx much!

    Would my interface be affected if it were connected to my computer while the computer was restarting, going into sleep mode, or powering off completely? Same question for a camlink and micro USB connected to a camera?

      While I don't expect this would cause damage to these devices, they do get power from your computer, so they won't work while the computer is turned off.
