Arggh!
Well ive solved the double tracking problem, but there's still a delay going on.
The means each time i try and layer a track, when i play it back its not in time :(
Anyone know why this might be??
If you're using your onboard sound card (as has been said above) then you will be using the wdm drivers which are designed for getting stereo or 5.1 sound out of your apps and to some speakers. To record you need fast driver performance and stable sync otherwise you get the delays you are hearing
Sound cards designed for Audio recording come with special drivers the Cubase type is ASIO (Audio Stream Input/Output) which allow low latency in other words what you hear while you are tracking is within a few miliseconds of it going through the CPU with a WDM driver this can be as much as half a second hence when you play back your tracking is out of sync.
You can get onboard card behaving better as someone has written a universal ASIO driver
