Have you installed the MAudio drivers? and checked that you have it installed as a midi controller in settings / peripherals?

I use some UAD modules but also use Waves in Protools with Low Latency enabled round trip latency is less than 3 milliseconds. I notice if I monitor from the DAW but not from the interface even with fully loaded track.

I use bucket loads of VST effects and use both Kontact and MPC and have zero issues with latency at 512. I take your point about 64bit OS I hadnt realised.

I bet the static was due to trying to push the buffer too low, don't get hung up on low buffer size mine is set an forgotten about at 512 on a UAD Apollo. Use direct monitoring and you will never have to worry about latency. Switch to Win 10 windows 7 cant use above 3.4gb of ram so your stash...

What is your sample rate and buffer size? 64gb ram in windows 7? There is no point in using hobby drivers like ASIO4ALL when using a well tried and tested interface like Focusrite

The standard Neumann mount will work perfectly fine.

I had a Dell 690 in a cupboard at the rear of my recording room, no real issues with cables (i patched them through the walls) the issues were, significant heat build up meant the fans were ramped all the time (.5 x 1m hall cupboard) and the utter pain in the a** when rebooting, installing...

Most audio issues are caused by buffer size increase a step at a time and retest, that should resolve it, modern interfaces have monitoring methods so that simple round trip latency is not the problem.

Pretty sure that needs phantom power, it's a condenser mic, you will either need a phantom power adaptor (search Amazon) about 20 dollars or an audio interface that supplies power about 100 bucks It depends what your intended end use is as to whether you think spending money is worth it? Cheers

I checked mine and thought the serial number would reveal age but no apparently :) her is a link which might be helpful Sound Bites: A Very Rough Guide to the AKG C12/C414 - Funky Junk Cheers :)

I forgot to mention this online from Focusrite, which is really helpful. Optimising your PC for Audio on Windows 10 – Focusrite Audio Engineering Good luck!

I suppose the obvious thing to say is have you contacted Avid? They have great customer support I have found that more useful than advice from forums. Protools is hungry but should run on an I5 with 16GB ram so I doubt it's that, more likely a configuration issue. Also the plug in library s...

Sonor Cakewalk will only support 44.1 PT will only record what your interface will allow.

I don't use a Mac, but also run latest pro tools and after setting up my project folder have never had any issues saving files. Bit obvious, but have you raised this with Pro Tools? their customer service is really fast. Good luck.

It says "MADE IN AUSTRIA" on mine :)
