LAtency and SONAR again

Posted on

HI everyone,
I'm trying to determine the effective latency of my soundcard in SONAR 3.11. I run the wave profiler after selecting the drivers I want, and then close and open SONAR. However, the effective latency (and the slider) are always where I previously left them. ie. if the slider was on 20ms before wave profiler and closing, then that's where it is on reopening. If I move it to 100ms, that's where it is after opening SONAR again (after running waver profiler). THe only time it appeared to give a proper latency assessment was when the program was first installed. Am I doing something wrong here?
Thanks
ANdrew

Can you hear a noticable difference in latency?

I haven't seen that before myself...and I use Sonar myself, v4 now.

I THINK you set the effetive latency to where you want it via the buffer size!

I dont think the wave profiler does it for you.

I think its user defined!

Plenty of poeple here who know about this one though.

No, Wave Profile should set it up automatically, then the buffers and such are for personal tweaking.

Yep, Wave Profiler should change it every time. And it should actually change every time you make a change to the driver choice. I know it does on my boxes, and I am sure of that as I just finished testing differant drivers versions of a new audio interface and watched the latency moniter change without running wave profiler every time. Just run it once and it checks the setting for all the drivers installed for that card.
