Hi guys. I'm confident it is a setting I have forgotten to change but when I load a project in X2 the latency is really bad, even on playback let alone recording.
In X1 I have NO problems with this latency (even during recording) using the exact same project.

Any ideas?

Thanks guys.

You either need to lower your WDM slider or Lower your ASIO driver mode depending on what driver mode your using in the preference menu

Driver settings probably. Which audio card are you using? Preferences -->

In X2, make sure you set up your Driver Mode and buffer settings the same as you have them in X1.  You can run the two side-by-side.  Go back and forth between the two and check Edit > Preferences (Or type P).  The stuff important to your issue will be found in the Audio sections, near the top.

If this is not possible/easy for you.  Try just applying different Driver Modes in the "Playback and Recording" section.

Cheers guys, I've done all of the 'obvious' stuff such as switching to ASIO etc.
I'm using a TASCAM US-1641

Like I say I have no problems in X1 (just double checked again) so it must be a setting if no-one else is experiencing it?

I've tried changing to different latency settings in preferences but nothing changed.
My total roundtrip is apparently only 15ms but its actually a lot closer to one whole second.

Thanks Bill. I AM running the two side by side to check for discrepancies between the two but can't seem to find any. They seem to be set up exactly the same.

Is this in a project with plug-ins already?  Somebody else experienced delay on input and we determined that it was Plug-in Delay Compensation as the culprit.  Worth trying:  http://forum.cakewalk.com/tm.aspx?high=&m=2668712

Also, try "Reset Config to Defaults" in the Configuration File section in Preferences.

I owe you beer and love. Thanks mate.
Not sure what the config files are and do so never would have touched something like that. Clicked it and hey presto! Works perfectly again. Thanks alot Bill.

Awesome!  Glad I could help.

By the way, just for future reference and in case anyone else is interested:

There are a few config files in SONAR.  Basically one for the Audio Engine (aud.ini), one for the MIDI Engine (ttsseq.ini) and one for general settings (cakewalk.ini).  These hold a bunch of settings and values that a typical user probably doesn't need to see, but, on rare occasion, may need to modify (this is mostly for Tech Support's easy access and legibility).  For example: When we scan your audio and MIDI drivers, we determine some technical settings.  We stash those settings in these files so the scan doesn't need to occur on every launch.  Something apparently went wrong with your initial audio settings, and we asked SONAR to try again by clicking that button.
