yeah i am still here...
direct monitoring v/s input monitoring---hmm i thought i was getting better--now i am confused again.
Here is what i found.
I have two options---
1. the monitor mixer feature in the detla's asio panel.
2. the input monitoring through Sonar.
If I disable both of these--I cant hear what i am playing "real time". If I leave any one of these turned on, I can hear what i am playing(latency applied ofcourse).
At the risk of making this thread longer, and confusing more people...let me guess...
the monitor mixer feature lets the sound bypass the computer(as stated here) so I can hear "real time"--so this becomes direct monitoring?
the sonar feature lets me hear "real time" with effects applied?--so this becomes input monitoring???

Bingo!
With direct monitoring you are essentially hearing what is going INTO the sound card. With input monitoring you are hearing what is coming OUT OF the sound card.
However, without any effects applied, they essentially should sound the same.
A third option would be to monitor through your hardware. For ex., headphones plugged into your mixing console. However, that's pretty much the same as monitoring directly from the sound card. In both case, no latency.

Hey Moskus!
That's a first rate couple of links you've thrown up there! Thanks for that.
The Cakewalk efficient latency page confirms that the Terratec EWX24/96 and the EWS88MT are capable of 3ms latency. (That's for the benefit of Pedullist and Jaymz)
Nice one!

No sir, that's the first time I've seen them both. As for being a long term member, I'm only just short of my first year.moskus said:
Seriously, it's been great for me to find such a bunch of helpful blokes. Good advice served up with good humour, what more could you ask for?
Come on guys, group hug time...
On the PC upgrade front, I came home yesterday with an Asus P4PE mobo, 512MB of DDR PC2700 RAM and a Western Digital 120GB 7200rpm HDD with 8MB of cache. (Wow - that all looks very impressive. But what on earth does it all mean???)
I'm buying a case and 300W PS from a good buddy of mine, then as soon as I can afford the P4 2.4GHz we're in business.
Can any of you knowledgable chaps tell me what the implications are regarding RAM with the P4PE? I'm told it will only accept "three-sides of RAM" and since the RAM I bought yesterday was double-sided, if I decide to add any more it will have to be a single-side module. Can you confirm this because it seems to contradict what's in the manual. The manual infers that I can lob in two double-sided modules, but in that case I must leave the third slot un-populated.
Confused!!!
