XTC / OS - MixMode: '0 latency' when recording guitars in XT

Steve-o · Post by **Steve-o** » Thu Sep 19, 2002 6:18 pm

Hi guys! In "Problem solving" I described my problems when recording guitar/vocals in XTC mode(see <XTC sounding better?>). Performance AND sound is much better in XTC (see thread) in my case. Problem with latency when recording remained unsolved.
Now I found something to record without (!!!)any latency. Forget "direct monitoring" in SX. What I did: I routed my ADAT input from A-16 through the old DYN-BUS(1) then to ASIO dest. I found that this DYNBUS pops up when SX is started in XTC-mode.
Then I routed this input also directly to the (monitor) output via another DYNBUS(2) that also gets the output from SX ASIO. Both Dyn-Buses pop up when starting SX! And guess what: you can insert comp. or other effects into the DYNBUS(1) when recording vocals or guitar and you can for sure control the recording (input) volume while in XTC-mode! Crazy, isn't it? 0 latency while recording guitar in XTC-mode!

Here's the chain:
First, open XTCPROJECT.PRO in SFP

ADAT A source->DYNBUS(1)->ASIO2 24 -DEST AND DYNBUS(2) 3/4 -> CUBASE SX (press record for level control, not monitoring)->ASIO2 24-source-> DYNBUS(2), CHAN.1/2->Analog out for monitoring via speakers.

I tested it with the new CHANNEL or DYNAMIXER: no work! Only DYNBUS works!
Have fun!

What is this DYNBUS? I don't have this module?

It's from 2.04 I guess...

I can only find Dynbus.pep and Dynbuschannel.pep files. No Dynbus device though.

I did some experiments w putting mixers in the XTC project, I thought the Mastermixer worked to mix Wav and ASIO sources, in XTC mode.
[edit]Btw, the devices would initially pop-up, but once closed there's no more access to their GUI. Midi remote remains though

CW really needs to bring some light to this XTC thing...

It's called "Dyn Bus.mdl" (with blank) and is part of my old 2.04 installation (114k). Send it via e-mail?

Sorry... did I miss something? A'm facing the same known problem (no MIDI signals in XTC mode) with my LUNA-II card since I switched over to WIN-XP. Know I read something about an XTCPROJECT.PRO I could not find on my computer. Where dues this *.pro file come from? I had my LUNA card running well under WIN98.

Please help
