Hey all, I posted this in the "mic lag" thread but have gotten no responses from other members..
does anyone else suffer from crowd noise/clapping being offbeat after calibrations have been made to offset HDTV lag? Please see the below info...
Setup:
PS3 40GB recently purchased
Rock Band Special Edition from launch stock at local store
52PFL7422D/37 - 52" LCD HDTV
connection from PS3 to TV is via HDMI
DD is off in game, from the main ps3 console, and in the TV
I still have the mic lag.. have not noticed the drum lag but that's probably because I haven't looked too closely at it. I've had to reduce the volume of the mic as low as it will go.
I've also had to calibrate my system at around 70ms lag, and -10ms offset (this is with the calibration tool)
The game is playable.. guitar is okay, drums are okay, mic volume turned off is bearable. HOWEVER, when I've set my lag calibrations, certain songs crowd noise is OFF BEAT!
The biggest culprits are the songs with crowds clapping along such as Don't Fear the Reaper and Paranoid (Black Sabbath) - it KILLS me when the crowd is offbeat and I guess the only way to get rid of this is to turn of crowd noise but it really bothers me to have to dumb down multiple parts of this game to get just the audio to work correctly. If the Lag compensation successfully shifted the audio track and the notes track, WHY can't it sync up the crowd noise? Anyone else noticed this? if not, please go check if you have a high lag calibration.
