Delay default audio monitor output

[felippenardi]

I'm noticing a delay of a second from when I play song and the output is played in the audio monitor.

This is happening in two different Macs, is it happening to other people?

The track of the file itself goes first, and a second after the "track 1" plays.

Output audio track monitoring will always be later than monitoring of the source itself. For the output track OBS does syncing and mixing of audio, these 2 extra steps take time, how much depends on a lot of things in your setup. You can check your OBS log file for when OBS is adding audio buffering and which source is causing it.

That is very useful information!

If I'm looking for a consistent way of not having delays, that would be using the Audio Monitor filter on every sound source?
