It records both a mono Dry and stereo Wet signal at the same time, enabling Direct monitoring with FX applied, no latency. I use the send on 1 Presonus to a Hardware FX rack, then back to the return on the other Presonus (this is on another level of complicatedness to set up, mixer routing etc).

Newer, more expensive interfaces come with an FX DSP built in for Direct Monitoring with FX and still record DRY. A solution is to add hardware but now you can't record a dry signal. Many performers require FX in order to be their best. Now you'll hear the sound of what ever is going in the inputs direct out the outputs (Direct Monitoring) mixed with what ever the DAW is playing, PERFECT!!! You'll hear everything in time and the DAW will record in time. Set the DAW to not monitor, send out the Presonus outputs what you're recording (in cubase this is default) and set the mixer dial to taste, anywhere between hard left and right. You can set a super tight latency to reduce the delay but won't be able to run a complex project or many FX, even on a good PC.ģ, The Best Solution. Once out of time you'll get pops and clicks.

The buffer is the headroom for the PC to compute everything before it runs out of time. This causes 'latency' to what you play, added delay, depending on how you set the buffer. Now the Presonus inputs are muted to the Presonus outputs but are still travelling into the PC, through the DAW, adding any FX etc, and finally out the Presonus outputs. Now you will only hear what you play and not be able to hear what you have already recorded, obviously no good for overdubbing.Ģ. The mixer dial on the AB is set any where but hard left and your daw is sending what you are recording out the outputs.ġ. The problem you're having with the echo is. Looking at the AB, i'm guessing it doesn't have the virtual mixer, you can only do it in the daw or via the dial on the front. In the mixer, it can be bypassed (direct to DAW, this is default) or activated enabling any routing of inputs to outputs for Direct Monitoring. They come with their own virtual mixer which loads when they do. I use 2x Presonus Firestudio in my set up. Also, The dial for each input shows they are for both type. I can see why on this unit it's confusing but look at the larger units and it will make sense. The only thing they aren't are line inputs. Just so you know, inputs 1&2 are both Mic & Inst (guitar) inputs, the label underneath is for both. Now everything echoes regardless of sound placement. I noticed mono recordings would only start to echo when I would try to pan the recordings left or right in respect to the Mic and Instrument jacks. Magix Music Maker doesn't have very many options for helping with this either so I'm not sure what to do.

I've tweaked the Windows Sound Options around set the recording and playback options to AudioBox drivers but nothing is helping. I use ASIO4ALL at 512 buffer size and I've tried lowering it and even raising it, but everything skips, freezes and pops except for 512. I thought the guitars would be distorted in the mic input or the sound waves would clip during playback but they seem okay minus the echo.

I'm not sure if doing without a DI box could be the cause of the Echo but I wouldn't be surprised.Īside from the echo, the sound and look of the sound waves are fine actually. I know I shouldn't be running my guitar straight into them because of the different sound levels, but I don't know if I need a DI box. The jack labeled Mic has sound coming out of the left speaker and the Instrument jack records the right speaker, so I switch between them when tracking guitars. One is labeled Mic and the other Instrument. I run my guitar into the front left and right jacks of my Presonus AB USB by plugging and unplugging from each.
