> For months I thought this was a deficiency in my playing, until eventually I discovered some latency setting, read about what latency was and realised what was going on.
It's a good idea for anyone doing things related recording audio: ask someone how to measure the "round trip latency" in the software you're using. Ask on forums, HN, Facebook groups how to do it. If someone responds with simple arithmetic to calculate latency, or responds with the term "latency" that isn't preceded by the words "round trip," or does anything other than tell you a surefire way to measure the round trip latency for that software: go somewhere else and ask again.
This will get you a baseline measurement of your system: one that that you can use to ask future questions and get practical answers.
If you don't do this you'll get spammed with "help" from people who write before they measure.
