Hello everyone!

I have a rather disabling problem with this new external audio interface, purchased mainly to play with headphones at night (AKG K 272 HD) without losing audio quality due to the old audio interface being unable to adequately drive the headphones in question. In essence, when I press the keys, I notice a very slight delay in the note playback; we are talking about nanoseconds, but it is clearly perceptible to me as a player and I would say disabling, especially if I play at a fast tempo.

What could be the cause? Is there a way to fix it?

If you have a Windows system, check that you have installed the ASIO drivers and that, if there is a latency setting, it is set to the lowest possible value.
