Topic: mic latency

I've just recently gotten into the microphone world, and I am running into some latency issues.  For instance, I'm listening to a song off of youtube in my headphones, and singing along to it in the mic and recording in ableton 8.0.  Theres about a half second delay between what I am hearing and what I am singing... Is there a way to fix this?  Thanks very much

Re: mic latency

The mic latency is coming from using software monitoring in the DAW, if you use hardware monitoring (TotalMix) instead, you won't hear the latency.
