And if you’re running HDMI to a TV? Fuhgeddabout it. Plus there will be even more latency if that amplifier or sound bar is doing any fancy audio effects (like surround or simulated surround). Further, there’s latency in whatever digital to optical converter you plug that optical into. There’s latency in the Xbox, as it takes your tone, applied your amp and effect sims, and then sends it out to the optical output. There is latency in the real-tone cable (and indeed any digital interface). So every step that adds latency is the enemy. As long as you can get it under your threshold of perception, you’ll usually be fine. I forget the actual cutoff, but somewhere around 100ms is the point at which your brain will “notice” that the sound of your strum is lagging behind your action of strumming. Latency, however, and only be fixed in hardware (at least in the context of Rocksmith on XB1).įirst, let’s talk about latency. If you simply mean the difference between when the note sounds and when it crosses the line on the TV, that can be adjusted in video settings. I’ll assume by “lag” you mean the latency between when you strum and when the note sounds. I experienced the same delay as well, but it can be partially explained by the fact that the headset is a wireless one. One thing to note is that I have a Turtle Beach headset, which is connected to the optical output. I live in a small apartment, I'm not looking to give a concert for the entire building. Unfortunately that didn't solve the problem for him.Ĭan somebody with an Xbox setup give some recommendations on how he/she solved it? Or speakers that you know of that aren't very expensive (I don't need a 5.1 surround set or anything, 1 or 2 simple speakers are more than enough). ![]() A friend of mine had the same problem and he tried to solve it by connecting his Xbox to an LG HS2 soundbar. I've read online that using the optical audio should solve that problem, but I don't know what I can buy to solve this. It's strange that I never picked this up when I started playing. A few weeks ago I decided to try my Xbox again, but the delay made the game completely unplayable. Initially I played on my Xbox One, but switched to Macbook last year.
