It would actually be nice if they referred to milliseconds, but it is certainly not the case.

Thanks for the info. I can monitor thru the card, but only at settings of 1 and 1.5, which are the only settings which will allow reliable recording anyway, and which have an unacceptable amount of latency. I haven't measured it, but I'd just guess that a setting of "1" might be 50-100 ms? Just a rough guess.... On the other hand, maybe I'm the only one that has this problem...:-( -Dan
