I don't think this is a useful number. You are measuring
"roundtrip" latency,
but if you are actually recording guitar you can monitor your guitar off the
source. If you were playing to a drum loop, then the latency of that
playback
is only the time that it takes for D-A conversion. On the other hand, if you
were playing a midi keyboard to play a softsynth, you would have the midi
time, but not A-D conversion.
