What is Zero Latency Monitoring?
Allows you to hear your microphone input directly without any noticeable delay (latency) during recording.
Definition
When recording, your voice travels through the microphone, into your computer, and back out through headphones. Without zero latency monitoring, this process can introduce a slight delay (latency) that makes it difficult to perform or speak naturally. Zero latency monitoring bypasses the computer's processing, sending the mic signal directly to your headphones.
Why It Matters
Eliminates distracting echoes or delays when you're recording, allowing you to monitor your performance in real-time and stay in sync, improving recording accuracy and comfort.
What to Look For
Essential for any recording where timing and performance are critical, such as singing or playing instruments.
