105 great BUT?

When you restarted your PC, did you actually power it down? I have found this can make a difference to how effective a reboot is - a normal restart just isn't enough sometimes.

Yep did a cold boot!

Now im not gettings any sound from the usb outs in control main outs. I have to change it's to outs 1 and 2 and the sound is all over the place!

Its well messed up. sounds like broken R2D2 8O and the bPM light on the Polar is flashing at warp speed captain, is she going to blow?

Is my Polar broke or do you think its my system?

Good news.. i sussed it.

For some reason master {Asio driver) must have changed when i tried to export the mix on the fly rather than real-time export. Changed to Asio multimedia driver when it should have been Asio Hammerfull DSP driver!

Latency is back down to 6ms now

My hunch was right about the Asio at least.

Now i can get back to my Psy and beat the shit out of my Asio



Thanks Ben for helping

Still drops out of time on real-time mixdown though?

Yes, I'm finding that mixdown in SX3 comes out 458 samples early. It is odd that this should be the case, as why would SX give different signals to the TI during mixdown, compared to playback?

OK - I think I've solved this.

Firstly, for whatever reason, I find that I get dropouts in SX3 unless I first go the the ASIO Control Panel, and re-apply the default settings.

These drop-outs, when they occur, will *always* make the arp run out of sync until the track is restarted. If the drop-out occurs during a silent section, it will pass unnoticed - it is in fact only the arpeggiator which will give you any clue that it happened!

Secondly, you need to put a pre-roll of at least a bar at the beginning of the sequence you wish to mixdown for the TI to get the information it requires for sample accuracy.

I had forgotten to do this!

Once I adressed these two points, I took a sample-accurate mixdown with both a 'normal' part and and arpeggiator.

Hi Ben,

Thats good news. Will have to give this a try.
Where do i find pre-roll in SX? do you mean Preload Amount in expert settings? or record placement offset? or is it in another place?

I simply make sure that there is an empty bar at the beginning.

Have you checked Plug-in Information in the Devices menu?

Is 'Use Delay Compensation' checked for the Virus TI?
