Octatrack input latency

Hello , ive got latency when taking singal from ableton into octatrack thru track :sob: octatrack adds delay . Ive turned on delay compensation in ableton and in octa 2 but ve got same problem. I tried 2 different soundcards but input latency is still problem . Its seems that octatrack adds latency . Any solution ? Have u got same problem ?

IIRC OT latency is 1.5 ms, 64 samples.
Not noticeable when you play an intrument with it.

Check your Ableton settings.

Which settings ? Midi clock settings is not changing anything :sob:

I don’t use Ableton. Latency depends on your soundcard and minimum latency. There are settings for that

No settings on OT for that.

It really depend on your routing especially if you send the sound out of your soundcard Vs directly into the INs of the OT.

I send what I want from my UAD to the OT but I don’t have such a noticeable delay.

Use the OT as an external effect and compensate the latency in ableton.

Dealing with latency is something you will become a master at when using Ableton Live. It takes time but it’s really worth exploring as it’s feasible to get a low-latency setup easily these days, as long as you do the right things. But like has been said, this is an Ableton Live issue, not an OT one.
