Thread: Live monitoring in headphones

    Live monitoring in headphones

    Hey RapBattles!

    I did a search and I found very little on the subject. I am trying to get my vocals monitored in my headphones for recording.

    My set up:

    *Sound blaster sound card (unsure which one though, just know its a 5.1 )

    *sound craft compact mixer - yes I know I don't need it but I didn't know this at the time, but maybe it will help somehow.

    *condenser mic - akg perception

    *cool edit pro 2.1 - was using audition 3 but it kept crashing, so I went back to cool edit, it hasn't failed me.

    So with all that said, I have tried the monitor part but its very delayed, so I messed with the settings and set it low as possible and its still delayed. So I tried turning the gain up on the mixer and turning up the mic volume and I can hear myself but recording turns out clipped up the ass.

    So what else can I do?

    cool edit doesn't support live monitoring, to my knowledge anyway... under Options, there is "monitor recording levels"... but I don't know if that allows you to hear yourself in your headphones as well... it just changes the volume meter to input... your soundcard may have direct monitoring, but I highly doubt it, as it not bein' a "recording" soundcard...
