How is the latency between monitoring and tracking?
One of the best parts of using an Onyx-i mixer in a session is its intuitive workflow. It’s not only your recording solution, but because it’s a full-fledged analog mixer, it’s also your monitoring solution. Everything happens in real time, because everything is analog. Setting up headphone mixes and monitoring your recording is all done in the analog domain with zero latency. Here’s an example of the only situation in which you will experience latency: If you are adding a real-time plug-in (like compression) in your DAW for monitoring purposes, you will need to have the FW source switch at the top of that input channel in the down position to hear it / route it to auxiliaries for monitor feeds. This means that instead of monitoring the analog input, you are monitoring the DAW’s output on the same mixer channel. Similarly, you can use a plug-in from your DAW to add reverb or delay to the monitoring path, allowing your vocalist to really get in the right mood to deliver that killer perf
