for some reason i have fairly high latency on my setup. i have 4 different sound cards and i am using asio4all on all of them. i have found that if i disable all but the card that i use for monitoring, and use it for recording also.. it reduces the latency but it is still pretty high. it's definately enough that i can tell. it is definately more than 10ms... is there any way that i can reduce the latency? is there a setting for this somewhere that i missed or what? my setup is
input 1, 2: Aureal Vortex 8830 Audio (WDM) input 3, 4: YAMAHA DS-XG PCI Audio Codec (WDM) input 5, 6; output 1, 2: kX 10k1 Audio - Model CT 4670 Value input 7, 8: CMI8738/C3DX PCI Audio Device

Are you sure all four devices are hard-synced, e.g. daisy chained via S/PDIF? If not, it is only natural for their audio streams to drift apart over time. resulting in crackles/dropouts/whatnot eventually.
This is due to the actual sample clocks of different devices not exactly being the same, e.g. 44105, 44110, 44090 and 44095 Hz, respectively.

no they aren't connected via S/PDIF i don't have the digital interfaces required to pull that off, but when i say latency i mean whenever i use a single card.. say my yamaha, and the rest are disabled, there is high latency just monitoring it. does monitoring it add more latency after it writes it to disk.. or does it play back instantly when the card receives it? i'm assuming that it takes longer to play back than it does to record it, am i right?

hmm that's weird.. i now have great latency.. i don't know what i changed, if anything, or if my system decied to like me, but either way i have great latency now. i think it was just a fluke... great program btw!!!
