Hello, I have Focusrite Saffire 6USB and Cubase LE AI Elements 6, when I press monitoring button on track I experience perceptible delay regardless of the buffer size on card, any ideas how to solve this issue?

Hi there,

I’m sorry to hear that you’re having some latency problems with your Saffire 6.

Have you tried all buffer sizes? Do you get this problem if you use the Direct Monitoring feature by turning the ‘Mixer’ dial all the way round to ‘Input’?

If your problem persists I would advise getting in touch with us via the contact form on our website: [http://focusrite.com/answerbase/contact](http://focusrite.com/answerbase/contact)
