Hi everybody,
I’m experimenting with my Zoom H4n as an audio interface with Cubasis and other apps on my Ipad 8 and today I had a strange problem that I didn’t encounter before: the device latency in the settings audio menu told me 1.3 ms and so the audio engine latency but when I recorded my guitar I had all my notes not in late but in advance to the beat… 
I then tried with a simple quarter note scale for making things simpler but anything changed (I also tried to disconnect and reconnect Zoom and I changed sample rate too from 44.1 to 48 kHz)
I did the same recording in Blocks Wave and all was perfect (I can definitely play a quarter note scale in time…)
Any idea about this?
Thank you,
Arturo
I answered by myself; what I discovered:
- I had Audio recording offset compensation in the audio menu set to a super high value (> 100 ms), probably for a mistake: I lowered it manually to 1.7 (see next paragraph) and things started to be better
- I set Device Latency and Audio Engine Latency to 1.3 ms (even if H4n reported latency was reported as about 2.5 ms) and after this things further improved
- I realized I had audio track monitoring button on in Cubasis: I switched it off and everything was quite ok (I could monitor my guitar through Zoom)
Hope it can be useful,
Arturo
