So, while recording stuff for the Pawprint challenge, I've come across a problem that's seriously starting to annoy me...
I usually record everything that's plugged directly into my interface (bass, guitars, everything MIDI) to a drum track played over my monitors for tempo and rhythm guidance. No problems here.
But for vocals and acoustic guitar, I obviously can't have my monitors playing the drum track, cause the mic would pick that up and I'd end up with a lot of unwanted noise in the background.
So here I use my wireless headphones as a reference while recording. They deliver a decent sound, there's no cable to get tangled in, all's good.
If it weren't for the (usually unnoticable) time delay it takes for the headphone station to send the reference track to my headphones, which in the end causes all recordings to be off time... Something I have to correct manually for every recording by ear - which is A REAL PAIN
Is there any way I can have my interface or the DAW (Cubase) automatically correct for this delay, but only on the tracks I'm using a mic for (i.e. vocals and acoustic guitar)? I don't have wired headphones and apart from the delay issues my wireless ones are really convenient...
Any help here would be much appreciated, as this is really starting to get on my nerves... (Have I mentioned that?)
