    The normal fixes Install the most up to date drivers, With Tascam your are best to have Windows 7 64 bit or there can be issues. Do you have input Echo on? Because the Tascam may have 10- 15 ms RTL you must monitor directly. Set the monitoring to a blend of Computer and input while tracking. You can test if your system is not composating for latency buy patching the output back to a input and re-recording a MIDI drum track, zoom in and see if the transients line up. There is centrance RTL tester too. http://www.centrance.com/products/ltu/

    Are you monitoring from the Tascam headphone output or the computer?

    What I always have found strange is when there is a simple problem like this that it takes 3 days time for any given OP to work it out? That's a lot of banana's.
