Direct Monitoring

E-MU Systems 12

DIRECT MONITORING

When using a computer for digital recording, an audible time delay occurs while

the audio signal is being input to the computer, processed by the software and then

returned to the output for monitoring. This time delay is called Latency.

Latency becomes a problem when you have to use high ASIO Buffer settings to

conserve CPU resources. Because the 0202 USB 2.0 has hardware direct

monitoring, you can enjoy zero latency regardless of your ASIO Buffer setting.

The Direct Monitor feature connects the input signals to the output when recording

so that you can hear your performance without delay. The Direct Monitor level

control lets you adjust the volume of the input signal in relation to the recorded

tracks.

Direct monitoring is controlled manually from the Direct Monitor switch on the

0202 USB 2.0. It’s not necessary to turn it on in your recording application

Latency (delay)

Direct Monitoring allows you to listen to the direct sound of your instrument during

recording, without the delay incurred by going to the computer and back.
