What should be the best possible latency 5654 miles (from Slovenia to Texas)

    Dear Urban,

    With good internet connections, I’d expect roughly 80 ms of latency between Texas and Slovenia.

    • Make sure each musician uses Ethernet to connect their computer to the router that receives the internet signal where it first enters the home. Avoid wireless repeater/extender routers and Ethernet-over-power adapters.
    • Be sure to turn Wi-Fi off and VPN off, if used.
    • Use a landline (fiber, cable, or vDSL) internet connection at each end, rather than cellular internet.
    • Drag the latency slider as far to the left as you can while still hearing an acceptable amount of crackling (see 1-minute video explainer).
    • If someone uses Windows, have them try to reduce latency by using an audio device with manufacturer-supplied ASIO drivers (like the iRig Stream Mic USB). Ask them to follow the steps in section 3 of our QuickStart guide (they should use the version customized for Windows PCs with external audio interfaces here).

    Our troubleshooting guide provides additional suggestions for reducing latency.

    Thank you,
    David Liao

    Thank you for the reply!

    The other person had ASIO driver and I believe I had it too on the microphone but not on the headphones. I have a Rubix 24 audio interface but no headphones to connect to it only microphone. And I could select asio for the mic but not the headphones which are wired directly to the laptop. I need to play around with the setting I’ll try the quick guide.

    Thanks,
    Urban
