I am pretty new to recording and I'm hoping this is a simple fix.
I use an MBox2 with Protools LE 7.4.
I originally installed it on my home PC (and never had this problem with that installation). I recently installed in on a relatively new Dell laptop (so I can record in a better location than where the home PC is located) and have had this problem with every session I have tried to record since installing it on the Dell laptop.
When I am recording a track, I can hear the track being recorded in my headphones (along with all the other tracks) but all the tracks are "real time" except the one being recorded. This is a very anoying delay in the track being recorded. It is significant enough that I have to mute that track or I cannot get through a vocal or guitar track. I don't know if this is a mic issue (i'm using a mic that needs phantom power and was not before), a Protools setting or a computer hard drive issue that is due to it being on the laptop, but I'm thinking it is one of the three.
Whether I mute the track being recorded or not, it properly records the track without the delay, it just delays the "live feed" of the track into the headphones and/or monitors.
Anybody know how to fix it?
thanks
