I run YARG on an older Windows 10 desktop. I have most of the graphics settings set to Low and have VSYNC on. I have a Alesis Strata Core e-drum kit. I had this setup with a Hisense 4k 65" TV. The game ran fine and I didn't experience any calibration issues.

I recently moved my setup to my office and the only difference is I'm now connected to a computer monitor instead of a TV. I didn't change any of the graphics settings in the game. I am having an impossible time of calibrating the game now. My scores have gone down considerably and I can hardly get a streak going anymore. In the stable or the nightly. In the nightly my average offset is consistently -46ms. When I use the audio calibrator it usually gives me -3 or -5. I have tried to figure out how to manually adjust the calibration using my average offset but am not getting it dialed in like it was when I was using my TV. Not sure what to try or maybe I just got worse??

Any assistance would be super helpful!

turn off the "account for hardware latency" setting and try calibrating again

@deep osprey I turned that off and recalibrated and it was still quite a bit off. I then switched my device back to the standard input type instead of MIDI drums. I forgot I set it to MIDI drums. That fixed it. Seems like the MIDI drum device was the culprit

That's more than a little surprising since it uses the existing drum engine internally, it only really affects which chart/bindings are used
