I noticed that no matter what I set the CI2 buffer size too, and what the numbers in cubase say, the latency I am hearing is the same. Another thing I noticed is this new driver called ‘high definition audio device’. I tried to delete it but it re-installs itself.
Sounds like the internal sound card on the motherboard is enabled…
Disable it in the bios for starters.
Do you have inserts on your master stereo out?
