I'm assuming you're using jack... The delay is I think from your jack
buffer size and number of periods. The smaller the jack buffer and
number of periods, the smaller you make the delay you hear. I'm hoping
your buffer size is kinda big like 1024, whereas it could be as small
as maybe 32 or 64. I am not sure what you'll need to make it before
you are fine with the delay.
All that said, do you know how to adjust the buffer size and number of
periods? If so, try making buffer size smaller until you can tolerate
the echo. Too small and you might get too many xruns.
Cheers,

Hello,
When recording acoustic guitar wearing headphones, the delay between
the note being played and the headphone output is so noticeable that
for fingerpicking with only but a soft synth pad as background, it is
difficult to play a good track. It is way too distracting. The
workaround is to put a click, a high hat for instance and be
oblivious
of anything else and try for the best. But it is certainly not free
playing as if playing along when the same is coming out the speakers.
In Ardour 4.6.0 changing the monitoring from Ardour to hardware does
not
improve anything. Any advice, hints, suggestions will be much
appreciated. Here is the setup. 1010LT card with playback outputs 3
and 4 send to a Behringer HA400 headphone amp. Just about no plugins
in Ardour, No xruns seen in quite some time (eg. i5 3.40GHz CPU is
very
likely running under no stress) 16G RAM.
It would be so nice to have no delay at all!
Cheers.
