You may need ASIO drivers for low latency. In your soundcard. If that's what you need.

You had no problems to record first guitar track right?
Than you probably pressed monitoring button on second guitar track channel which gave you delay(latency in this situation). Look around and try to turn it off... Tel me if is it working ok? Cheers Muris -------------------- Youtube

Let us know if Muris is on the right track (hihi). He knows way more about recording (and Reaper) than I do, I just starded to explore this. If that didn't help, post again in this thread and I will get some screenshots of my set up and post them here, that will make it easier to understand what I was trying to say, I'm no good at explaining stuff in an easy way . Actually,I used Reaper once or twice,not more That's just something I think it MIGHT be the problem -------------------- Youtube

Reaper gives you a numerical readout of its i/o measured latency - top right hand corner. Assuming you are using the Pod's usb lead to the pc then I'd have thought that you would automatically having started the Pod's ASIO? (Sorry I don't have a Pod so I'm not sure.) If you are then I wouldn't think that you'd need ASIO4ALL as that is really for people who have sound cards that don't have ASIO at all.
IF you are using the Pod's ASIO driver then you might have to adjust the settings to reduce latency (Options-Preferences-Audio-Device and drop down box for ASIO (or POD ASIO) in Reaper). You need to lower the latency/buffer size until you start to hear pops and clicks then increase it one setting. Watch your pc overhead though as when you drop the latency/buffer you can increase the load on your pc. Also are you interfacing the Peavey and Pod via USB to your pc? Two devices on a USB can cause problems for audio (not always though). Other biy for USB - there are different types of USB - USB 1, USB 1.1, USB 2. You really need USB 1.1 as a minimum and preferably USB 2 for audio . USB 1 is too slow here and will cause bandwidth problems, latency, drop outs, pops, click and so on particulalry if you share it with any other USB device. Also if you're using a usb hub it's best that it is self-powered rather than pulling off the buss. Last bit - did you know that you can set a latency compensation in Reaper? Options-Preferences-Audio-Recording. Probably already defaulted to auto adjust for recording latency. Once you arm the track to start monitoring for recording the latency compensation should kick in.

All great advice Tony
I'd just like to emphasise that in my experience you shouldn't have to adjust the latency yourself, especially with the Pod, if all is set up correctly you shouldn't have any problems, so exhaust the other possibilities around drivers and such before you go down this route. -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile

Sorry, I meant you shouldnt need to adjust the latency compensation ... adjusting the latency settings to eliminate pops an clicks as Tony described is something I do fairly often (you need higher latency for more complex mixes, lower latency for recording) -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile

Andrew's right here, I wasn't being clear before. The check box for auto latency correction should be checked and if so it's ok. If it isn't check it. YOu can of course play around a bit with the setting if you want and maybe put it back to auto later . Must admit I tend to play with settings quite a bit just for the hell of it. Sometimes I remember far too late that I should have made a note of the settings that worked before I goosed it all . Every now and then I even remember that I should rtfm, well I remember that I should but don't .
BTW the Reaper wiki has some great video 'how to's'. Great for people like me who can't/won't rtfm.
