Latency Returning After Several Passes

that's an odd problem.  do you have a lot of FX and/or softsynths on the project?  when you say  latency are you talking about keyboard latency or slow to start when you press the play on the transport or what?

I'm experiencing the issue whether the track is FX intensive or just a single audio track. It's really got me stumped. I can open MC5 and start a new project. At first things are just fine. After a few takes (or sometimes in the middle of a take) I begin to experience the latency. I can go into the Audio settings and change nothing, but hit the "OK" button. When it returns back to the program everything is fine for a bit and then it will start again.

By latency I mean I can strike a string on my guitar and I won't hear it until a few milliseconds later. Thus far I've only experienced it when working with audio tracks.

When I go into my Audio settings it still shows my Lexicon as the source for both recording and playback. Is this the Recording Master you're talking about, Tap?

I think Beagle is probably right on this one. Sounds like a driver issue in your case.

ok, but the mic is connected to the Lambda, right?

mic positions will have nothing to do with latency.  as long as the mic is connected to the lambda and that it's NOT a USB mic.

try WDM driver mode instead and see if that will reduce your latency.

however, this statement:

I'm experiencing the issue whether the track is FX intensive or just a single audio track.

is bothering me.  if you're not using FX on a track but still getting latency - what do you mean by "latency"?  do you mean the track you're recording is lagging behind the other tracks when you play it back?  or do you mean you're listening using INPUT ECHO and it's delayed?  or what does that mean exactly?  (I asked about this earlier, but I still don't think I'm getting a clear answer).

Finally solved! The problem wasn't with the software or the drivers or anything of that nature, but with my antivirus program. I was running CA antivirus and it was interfering with not only my recording software but other stuff as well. The machine got to the point that it sounded like a jet engine cleared for takeoff. I completely uninstalled the antivirus and haven't had a problem since. Of course, I did purchase other AV software and have had no problem with it since. Thanks guys for all your help!
