Yes! After you said "If you're using some kind of USB audio interface, you'd go to the web page for that device and look in the download section.", I did that! I'm glad I did too but the problem persists. After asking around after that someone said I could be recording at different audiorates, which makes sense cause a side effect of my issue is the recording slowly desyncs with the tempo.

Make sure your audio settings in Windows match the settings in MC. 24bit, 48k is a good starting point, 16 and 44.1 used to be pretty standard.

Right click on your speaker bottom right, scroll down to 'More Sound Settings' then make sure your interface is your default device. Highlight that device go to properties, click on advanced and it's there.
