What Do I Need To Spend to Get My Audio Latency Down? - TonyD - 04-12-2020
Right now I have a Dell 7480 Latitude that's a couple of years old and a Behringer UMC22 interface. I'm getting 20ms audio latency and it's not cutting it with my band. What do I need to do to get down around 6ms audio latency? (I'd really prefer to stick in the Windows world and not go Apple.) Any budget-minded suggestions or technical advice appreciated.
Thanks,
Tony

The UMC202HD costs less than $120 and has an OEM ASIO driver. I saw ~4ms latency in the Audio Gear test. I/O 400, Var 0.12 - 0.42.
The UMC22 uses the Windows USB Audio CODEC native driver. I does not have good latency, 10+ms, and there is no OEM ASIO driver. I have not seen improvement when using ASIO4ALL with this interface. The native driver was actually better.

Found this youtube review of the UMC22 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g98J36XmDhQ&t=322s) and it suggests using this driver (BEHRINGER_2902_X64_2.8.40) that can be found here; https://www.youtube.com/redirect?q=http%3A%2F%2Frecordingstudio9.com%2Fabout%2Fdownload%2F&v=g98J36XmDhQ&event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqblFLcXZjOUtJbnM2WHpIMUtQRmwwcng3U3lYd3xBQ3Jtc0trZlg4Yjk4S2hXNVRDMkx5dV9YSkNDRy1QRTFwVG1IYXgxcjdKcFpCRVlvbjYwY056dF93YVJrZnhyMEt0QkVVaTJab3hrMUlBLUcyLW1iRzNjSjdGSm5ReUlLRHpnTHI2dHRDZkVsUFF6YnNvZ2NiQQ%3D%3D
This is working great for me now with 6.9ms latency.
Hope this helps.

Disclaimer, I am Mac user but agree with Stuart that maybe it's time for an interface. I will say too, I have an old computer; Mac is 2015, and found that even with a good device driver that I was high CPU useage affecting my device latency and frame rate. I know use a dedicated SSD boot drive with a clean OS with nothing but then the OS, JK, and Audio Device Drivers. I already have an older MOTU interface. What was 8 ms and CPU at 30%, is down to 3.5ms and 12-15% on CPU. This is because i no longer have background apps running and calling home, also contributing to internet latency. I believe for Windows you have OS settings for power consumption, etc to make sure resources are dedicated in full, so JK can run better. Hope what I said, applies.

Contact support".

Depending on what I click on, I also get two Behringer Control Panels popping up, one on top of the other. I close the one on top OK but when when I close the other one JanKazam crashes. Did you experience any of this? If so how did you solve it.
Many thanks
