Okay. Last thing is, while you're tracking, do you have "low latency" mode enabled? If i don't enable it on my Mac, i can't get sub 8ms roundtrip latency. If that doesn't work, then you need to calculate the proper sample delay for your setup. you're running a 2017 mac I7 16gb correct? mines a 2013, and i don't have any issues. if anything your mac should be faster, and more efficient. Rayza was right about the hub thing too, but if your running usb direct, there's no bandwidth being shared. One other thing, are you using software synths? i keep my entire sample library on an external SSD. Are you having troubles with latency on the very first track being recorded in logic, with no plug-ins inline during recording? I'm going to try my best to get you up and running smoothDirectly to my Mac, no hub's
Oh and please tell me your not running Catalina, because its barely supported by anything at the moment. i was warned by Waves, Positive Grid, among others not to even try it. any program that runs in Catalina has to be re-coded in 64 bit, and that's a monumental task for a lot of the third party companiesOkay.

Very true Zedhead, especially with higher track count and stacked plug-insUse input monitoring, the reason it exists is to bypass latency.
OK so I checked couple of options. I opened new project without any plugins and there was some lag when recording. I opened the fully loaded project with plugins an its the same. There is a difference when I have a lot of plugins on master track - the lag is even bigger. To be honest I didn;t have those issues on my axe fx2. I have checked it on catalina and on high sierra and mojave - always the same issue. I have 2018 - with 6 core, 12 threads i7 and 16gb drr4 2666, it is fast enough. I had the same issue on my hackintosh.Oh and please tell me your not running Catalina, because its barely supported by anything at the moment. i was warned by Waves, Positive Grid, among others not to even try it. any program that runs in Catalina has to be re-coded in 64 bit, and that's a monumental task for a lot of the third party companies
But it is fine when I play, I don't have any latency, problem is when tracking takes into the logic. You can see that every bar is a bit late. I thought that this happens due to my lack of skill but it is impossible to be always equally to late in every takeWith input monitoring you're listening to the output of the interface BEFORE it goes on its round trip through the system.
Nope ! I will check that later on, thanksAre you sure you have “input monitoring” enabled when you track? “R” & “I” ON.
You’re welcome. Input monitoring bypasses all latency while recording. Don’t be fooled by a slightly different sound while it’s being tracked in some cases because of plugins on the armed track, not sounding. On playback, the sound will be exactly as intended.Nope ! I will check that later on, thanks
Yes thats exactly the issue ! It actually is too late, not only sounds to late I zoom in the DI track and analize every bar and I can see that it is equally to late in every take, every bar etcI've been asked about this lately elsewhere and I am going to try to get an answer from Apple.
I think what you're describing is as follows:
1. You record an Axe-Fx III USB track in Logic, playing perfectly in time with backing tracks.
2. When you play back audio, the recorded Axe-Fx track sound late.
