SPAMMER...reported

 sorry not a spammer just up the wall trying to work this forum

coggsy - try using ASIO driver mode.

 hi,thanks beagle,i have tried asio and cakewalk goes into not responding mode ,then crashes,i dont know whether my laptop is up to the job or the lexicon alpha is to old but something is not playing ball.

Sorry.... when I clicked the link it took me to an Ebay page with a whole bunch of computers on it with prices..... 
We have a low tolerance here for spammers. And they get reported quickly. When posting a link, be careful what you have in it...... one trick spammers use all the time is digging up old threads and commenting in them with their links..... which is what you did.... then the page was full of computers...... 

I suggest starting a new thread on the topic. 

Beagle is right however. If the interface uses ASIO drivers, be sure to use them.  Using a stereo amp and speakers to monitor is fine...... I have done that in the past. 

You may still need to adjust the latency and buffers with ASIO but you should also be able to get the latency down to the point with ASIO drivers that it is not an issue. 

Good luck....and sorry for the misunderstanding on the post above.
