REDUCING MONITORING LATENCY

MONITORING LIVE INPUT

There are two ways to monitor live audio input

with an UltraLite-mk3: 1) through the computer or

2) via the Ultralite-mk3’s CueMix FX hardware

mixer. Figure 10-1 below shows method 1, which

allows you to add effects processing such as reverb

and guitar amp effects via plug-ins in your audio

software. See the next section, “Adjusting the audio

I/O buffer” for details about how to reduce — and

possibly eliminate — the audible monitoring delay

that the computer introduces.

Figure 10-2 shows how to use CueMix FX

hardware-based monitoring, which lets you hear

what you are recording with no monitoring delay

and no computer-based effects processing.

Instead, input is routed directly to an output, either

with or without UltraLite-mk3-based effects

processing (EQ, compression or reverb). See

“CueMix FX hardware monitoring” later in this

chapter for details on how to use CueMix FX with

your audio software, or with the included CueMix

FX software.

If the material you are recording is suitable, there is

a third way to monitor live input: use both methods

(Figure 10-1 and Figure 10-2) at the same time. For

example, you could route guitar to both the

computer (for an amp model effect) and mix that

processed signal on the main outs with dry guitar

from CueMix FX — or perhaps with a touch of

UltraLite-mk3 Classic Reverb.

1. Live input (from mic, guitar, etc.)

enters the MOTU interface.

Mac

2. Mic signal goes immedi-

ately to the computer (dry,

with no effects processing).

3. Mic signal is

‘patched thru’ back to

the audio interface

with reverb or other

plug-in effects, if any.

Figure 10-1: There are two ways to monitor live audio inputs with an UltraLite-mk3: 1) through the computer or 2) via CueMix FX hardware

monitoring. This diagram shows method 1 (through the computer). When using this method, use your host software’s buffer setting to reduce

the slight delay you hear when monitoring the live input, but don’t lower it too much, or your computer might get sluggish.

4. Mic signal (with plug-in

processing, if any) is routed

to the main outs (or other

outputs that you’ve speciﬁed

in the software).
