Hi all, we have a big problem with the audio layer we import the audio from a mixer via a presonus sound card and the audio go off synch, they start normally and then have an increasing delay in preview and in the recorded file we tried to cahnge the sound, to use direct line input and also to use a different mac, but we have the same issue also using a previuos version of mimolive (actual 5.8) ![Schermata 2020-10-05 alle 13.36.16](https://forum.boinx.com/uploads/default/original/1X/e68832e100d00112a106e1dc615b23b65049e6e3.png) thank u so ---

Hi @gabril I’m sorry to hear about the issue. What camera are you using and how is the camera connected? Can you also please let me know the exact model of the audio interface? Is the audio trailing the video or vice versa? ---
