Hi! I'm having computer trouble again. Basically, I hit limits I couldn't get around so upgraded hardware. It mostly worked great! But that's only "mostly." If anybody knows Ubuntu Studio+JACK, please go look here and tell me whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa?

2. Latency isn't an issue if your recording software can compensate. For instance, mine knows the buffer size and just makes sure all recordings line up correctly after-the-fact.
The only time latency is an issue is if you want "Software Monitoring", which I don't bother to use (since I don't want to deal with trying to solve latency issues). I can monitor just fine using the headphone jack on my M-audio interface, which gives me a direct feed right back from the inputs.

And as per our talk at your house, I got the direct hardware monitoring working earlier, and I've done some testing this afternoon and it seems to sync up with the playback of other tracks correctly. I want to test that some more to make sure but I'm feeling a little better about that now.
Still, it tasks me. Well, it bugs me. It makes me wonder if something else is wrong and waiting to explode.
