Pardon my ignorance but I am new to this. I recorded a simple beat, and then laid down an acoustic track that is on perfect timing. I did this in session view, so the guitar track is a clip. When playing it back together, the guitar audio is out of sync with the beat I guess because of some latency. Can I simply shift the guitar audio a few milliseconds to correct for the latency? I can't figure this out as simple as it seems. Thanks

Shifting a clip to compensate latency
Hello,

When playing it back together, the guitar audio is out of sync with the beat I guess because of some latency. Can I simply shift the guitar audio a few milliseconds to correct for the latency?

FYI, the image link is broken. (I don't know how important the image is to explaining the problem, but just thought I'd mention it.)
