Making a Scene Presents - What Is Latency? And How to Record Without Losing Your Groove

Written for indie musicians who just want their tracks to sound right without fighting their gear

If you’ve ever tried to record vocals or guitar and felt like your timing was weird, or you couldn’t stay in the pocket no matter how hard you focused, you’ve already met the enemy. That enemy is latency. Latency is one of those home-studio problems that doesn’t care how talented you are. When it’s bad, it throws off your groove in a way that feels like someone moved the beat a few inches to the left.
