Normally it would be the "main mix". what line 6 interface do you have?

That's quite a mixer for a novice! :D:

The latency isn't coming from the mixer. it's coming from the UX2. did you install the right drivers? have you tried reducing the latency of the UX2?

Yes, the lower the latency the better, if you can get it. lower latencies require more powerful resources. so if you can get latency around 6 ms without any glitches then you're ok. anything under 10 ms is more or less acceptable and hardly noticeable. above 10 you'll really start noticing it.

At above 10, it's really more than just a point of starting to notice ;)

Yeah you're right. ;) but i think it's something like 1 ms per foot. so if you're standing 10 feet away from your amp (with no stage monitors), which sometimes happens (at least to me) you've got 10 ms of latency.

so latency does happen in the real world also. :bravo2:

and we deal with it
