AMD1800+ 512mbRam-7200rmp drives, Echo Layla card. never had any probs with VV2.0f

i read in the manual, that my new 4.0 has problems with accustic mirror and i am surely having them. I get grunge sounds at regular intervals when using chicago theatre on snare and hats. so i am surprised that SonicIMC is wanting to help, didn't think there was a fix.

i forgot a very important thing...i am running in ASIO.
i know that when running windows driver, Acc.Mirror works.
but i thought ASIO was really important to i am trying to use it.

however i also note that i cannot use input monitoring when using ASIO either.
the sound is all crappy sounding. and i think maybe monitoring/latency is the reason for ASIO in the first place.

am i trying to solve too many things at once?

Acoustic Mirror is very tough on low latency i/o. In fact you will NOT beable to do real-time input monitoring through any track (or bus that a track is routed too) that has an AM plugin installed.

Why: AM is what is known as "non-inplace". In AM's specific case, it MUST recieve n seconds of audio BEFORE it can produce any output. "n" is how long the impulse file is that you are using.

Also, if you are using AM, don't use it on tracks. Set up an assignable FX send or a sub bus with a AM as an insert. Use the send to on your track(s) to process through AM then. You will not only save CPU, but limit the latency effect caused by the non-inplace nature of AM.

Again, and I can't stress this enough, don't use AM ANYWHERE when input monitoring - or at least nowhere near the signal path that your input monitoring track(s) follow. This means keeping it off the master bus and any sends/FX that a track is routing through. It wont work.

Sound Forge is not real-time. Sound Forge used VERY large buffers for audio playback.

You cannot compare Sound Forge with Vegas or ACID. They are VERY different audio engines. AM was designed for use in Sound Forge. AM is NOT intended to be used as a real-time plugin. It is far to 'hungry' to be used this way. We let it be used because there are cases where it will work if latencies are not an issue.
