Latency Issue when running session, not when joining session

[kevorargh]

It sounds to me that you may well be listening in direct monitor mode. When you are playing in other sessions and you don't experience latency, do the other session members find you're in time with them? Or do they not and don't say? 30msec is the equivalent of about 10m physical distance so it's only a very small lag. If you're in direct monitoring, you will be playing in time to everyone else as you hear it but be slightly late to everyone else. In your own band sessions if more than one of you is in direct monitoring you can be wandering all over the place. I'm saying this because it's not an easy concept to pick up at first and not all interfaces allow indirect monitoring. We're just getting our band set up and I'm going to take care to find a way to have everybody on indirect! Hope that helps and perhaps is slightly more polite than the other chap.

Thanks, Mark!
I'll work with the band on that concept - it slipped under the radar for me. It's not very clear on my Clarett 8PreX about how to disable direct monitoring - I think I have mine disabled (through Focusrite Control I click on the Custom Mix and that gives me just the Clarett, and it switches off the routing to the DAW), but I'm not really sure and I can't find anything that says do it exactly this way.
