I don't know if this just started or if it has always been there...I have
been more focused or learning Cubase than listening to Cubase.
We are recording the Vox over those Nylon guitars this morning and I noticed
something last night while settings up and doing an equipment check....There
is very noticable phasing on the mic
thru the monitoring headphones.
I got a 3ms latency.
I thought man...am I hearing that? So I bumped the buffers down as far as
they can go..to 1ms..I could still hear it just the same. So that cant be
it.
I set my buffers back to 3ms.
I noticed some popping too which turned out to be my presonus wasnt clock
locked to my motu. After I clock locked it no more pops. Which brings me
to another part of the quest...
Initially I was running the mic thru the Presonus--ADAT out---Motu I thought
maybe the Presonus is doing this....so I plugged directly to the Motu and
same thing.
I tried using the Motu as the master clock and the presonus as the master
clock.
No change.
I twiddled with every setting I could find in Cubase that looked related
and no change.
I tried different microphones.
No change.
It sounds like there are two identical signals being sent to the main outs/headphones.
I thought hmmm maybe the Direct monitoring was some how enabled... But it
was disabled and I opened Cue Mix and disabled the main outs just in case
and closed it again.
No change.
I am sarting to think the Motu is defective.
I tried opening a new project and adding an audio track so I was sure there
was no processing...No Change.
It is very noticable on the headphones.
Not as noticable during playback, but I swear I can hear artifacts of it
on recorded vocal material.
Does anyone have a clue what this might be?

DJ,
When I go to my MOTU device setup... I dont recall seeing anything about
direct monitoring, but there must be....
hmm...I will have to look around.. I might even have to get on the manual.

Do you have MOTU CueMix Console?

CuMix is a software console that allows zero (actually a few samples of delay)
latency monitoring using MOTU hardware. I use it with Digital Performer,
which controls it automatically. You should have a detailed manual that came
with the MOTU I/O box or the upgraded PCI card (if you have a new 424). This
is how you get rid of the recording delay, but not while using VST plugins.

HI Brandon,
If you are not using direct monitoring then have to make absolutely sure
you are not monitoring the source in the MOTU cure mix or anywhere else
other than the Cubase. If you are then you getting the original dry
hardware sound mixed with the delayed software. If you are then no
matter how low your latency is there will be some phasing or echo.

Guys,
Direct Monitoring is controlled by cubase on the Motu 8pre.
I got it working again.
The problem I had is you cant have a project open and switch direct monitoring
on and off willy nilly. With no project open I had no problem enabling direct
monitoring.
I got it working... I think that may have fixed the phasing, but
now I swear thru the CueMix Console the signal sounds...muddy..bassy...not
well defined.
Hmm... I will have to mess with it some more.
I am testing it thru a SM57 and a CAD LDC tube mic.
I did get the talk back function working which is cool.
I will have to get one of those nifty lapel mics or cheap computer mics to
install on my console for talk back.
So now back to the situation of getting some verb or other effects on the
live monitored sound?
How are you guys handling this?
Am I the only one who likes to record this way or what?
It really help me get into the mood of the performance when I juice up the
live feed a bit with effects that fit what I am trying to do...it isnt what
I end up keeping , but it help with the mood.
thx
b
