Does Audio Radar Add Latency? | Real-Time Gaming Performance Explained

Does Audio Radar introduce any latency in the gaming experience?

No, Audio Radar does not introduce noticeable latency in your gaming experience.

How Audio Radar Processes Audio Without Latency

  1. Pass-Through Processing – Audio Radar only reads the audio signal as it passes through, then sends real-time visual cues to the LED light bars.
  2. No Delay in Gameplay – The processing happens instantly, ensuring game audio remains perfectly synced with visual cues.
  3. Uninterrupted Performance – While all audio processing systems inherently introduce some level of latency, Audio Radar’s latency is imperceptible and does not impact gameplay.
  4. HDMI Cable Quality Matters – Using low-quality or older HDMI cables can introduce latency or signal degradation. We strongly recommend using HDMI 2.1 certified cables for the best performance, especially when gaming at 4K 120Hz or 8K 60Hz. Learn more >

Conclusion

Audio Radar is engineered for seamless integration into any gaming setup, ensuring an immersive, real-time gaming experience without noticeable delay. For the best performance, ensure your game is configured for optimal audio output (e.g., 7.1 surround sound if available).
