Title: Windows 8.1 and Recording
Post by: The Demon Lord on August 24, 2014, 03:01:39 pm

Hey Guys,

I have thus far not been able to google my way out of this issue:

I am a drummer and like to be able to record to my PC - my previous rig (Gigabyte UD5 x58 board with realtek onboard audio and Windows 7 Ultimate) was fine - I could record and listen to my playing without any issues

My current rig (Windows 8.1, Gigabye G1 Sniper 5 board with onboard audio) has massive (300 ms which for drumming is 1 full click out at 180 bpm) I cannot solve this.

I have a PCI recording card but alas, my board only has PCI-E slots.

My question then is 3 fold:

1: anyone got ideas how to solve this issue on my current rig?
2: if not - anyone got an old rig they are looking to offload that has a PCI slot (ideally some form of semi decent dual or quad - it needs to be able to run Cubase 5 which is fairly resource hungry)
3: Anyone know of a PCI to PCI-E adapter that is purchasable in NZ
