   * Connecting the output of your audio interface to its input using a patch cable. This can be an analog or a digital loop, depending on the nature of the input/output you use. A digital loop won't factor in the converters latency.   * Connecting the output of your audio interface to its input using a patch cable.

-If you want to measure the latency of a cheap, integrated sound card that only has line-output and mic-input you cannot close the loop with a simple patch cable: both connectors may be mechanically compatible, but electrically they are not designed to work together, so attempting to connect them may harm your audio interface. If you are curious, anyway, you can [[http://www.tkk.fi/Misc/Electronics/circuits/line_to_mic.html|build a pad]] with a couple of resistors to adapt their impedances. Here's how we did it, but we take no responsibility for any harm your equipment might suffer. DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK!+If you want to measure the latency of a cheap, integrated sound card that only has line-output and mic-input you cannot close the loop with a simple patch cable: both connectors may be mechanically compatible, but electrically they are not designed to work together, so attempting to connect them may harm your audio interface.
