Try it at your own risk, it worked for me, although I came back to 25ms
for the sake of 
stability :)

1) In Start Menu / Run type Regedit
2) Go into HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE 
3) Then into SOFTWARE 
4) ...into ECHOAUDIO / ECHOASIO 
5) Find PREFERRED FRAME RATE and change the decimal value from 1024 to 128
for 4ms or 64 for 3ms.  

Try the 3ms first and see how you go, although 4ms seems far more stable
bear in mind
that each time you switch drivers, you will need to repeat this procedure,
otherwise the default
25ms will take effect. Good luck! It worked for me! 

PS: I missed all the 'make security copies of your registry files
blablabla' that no one cares about :)

When i mute the gina input on the gina mixer,i can't get any input
in cubase.In vst the monitor(unther system) is set to tape type.
So how will i get input in vst if i mute the gina?
An other problem i have is looping back the sound while monitoring.
I the old version(3.05) i set monitoring off ,in my computer,games etc.
The only way i can do this now,is disconnect the patchcables(hardware).

About the crackling while create a mix down:
In the old cubase version a had this problem sometimes.I was also
working on a old pentium those days.The sound was also changing
a little bit,like less headroom.
Fortunately this problem is over for me.

Okay, here's my experience with that. Yesterday as I was recording
some guitar, I used the VST monitors so I could hear the effect the
guitar would have while I was recording. At first I had my buffers set
to 4K, and the latency was so high I couldn't keep time with the other
tracks. Setting the latency to 25ms (actually I was recording at 48KHz
so the atency was 23ms), I was able to keep better time, but it was
difficult. Here's the remedy:

- Don't use VST to monitor the input while recording.
- Use GINA's monitor line to monitor. It's got really low latency.
- Cubase records the track at the time it should be, you don't have to
  be doing any dragging around.

But, you can do some pretty wacky things with the input monitors in
VST... put a whole bunch of effects on the sound, monitor it, and then
record with the monitor on... playing to the effect. With 25ms
latency, it's almost like having an FX rack. ASIO is the only thing
making that possible, I would say.
