talbehar Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Hi there Iv'e been working with my HD500 and Cubase 5 for some time now, but I can't figure out how to use my computer's speakers while recording. The only way I hear myself in real time is if I plug into the headphone jack of the HD500. Just to be clear-I'm using it as a direct sound card, no other sound cards present. Thanks!

jandrio Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 I believe this is not possible due 2 latency aspects. The only way 2 hear urself in real time is if u use the headphone jack of the HD500... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pfsmith0 Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Oh gosh no. I do this all the time, but I use the SPDIF connection into my soundcard (RME UFX), not the 1/4" or XLR or USB outputs, although I believe you can use any of those with no ill effects. Plus, I use the soundcard's "zero-latency loopback" feature and adjust the DAW's latency compensation to match. Not sure how to do this in Cubase (as I use Sonar) but it is a full-featured DAW so I'm sure it has this feature as well. Zero-latency monitoring has been around a long, long time. In fact, Google "zero-latency monitoring in Cubase" and see what you get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
