    There are two elements to consider when remote recording. The first is the latency of your signal chain, the second is the latency on your internet connection.

    In the first instance, this can be managed by selecting the appropriate monitoring source or post processing in non-real time.

    The second instance results in scrambled audio as the codec tries to re-arrange bits into the right order whilst trying to maintain the audio stream.
