Legitimately… I have been trying to figure out my live vocal latency issues for a few years. After searching EVERYWHERE for an answer, you provided it. The output on the vocal channel to ‘ext out’ vs ‘master’ took care of it. I have for years had to go into a separate mixer in order to perform appropriately. GAME CHANGER for me. Thanks a million 👑

[@djgeeter]

oh my God finally a tutorial where I can understand, the guy speaks slowly and clearly, the level of professionalism in this tutorial is phenomenal. *happily subbed* so much appreciated I can't wait to make some new vocals with this
