Hi Guys & Girls,
I'm using an iMac for home HD recording. I noticed some small delay between the iMac audio in/out. I mean if I play on my synth connected to the iMac audio in and want to hear through the iMac audio out (or headphones), the sound is coming a bit later. Even if I don't use any software (sequencer, HD recorder etc.), simply MacOS 9.1. This delay is very small, but big enough to cause problem - suppose you play in sync with anything... My questions: Is it simply because of the original iMac soundcard is slow? If yes, can you advice any other solution, how can I upgrade the soundcard (types, tech specs, prices maybe)? Thanks and happy playing, Akos jas@freemail.hu |

I would recommend the RolandED UA-30. It has analog & S/PDIF (optical & co-ax) in and out + a guitar/mic input and a headphone jack.It will handle all a/d d/a conversion, greatly reducing the latency inherant in using the onboard audio in the iMac. You HAVE to use the UA-30 for monitoring audio when it is selected as the input device. Go to www.edirol.com for more info.
Cheers, Scott |
