Try either adjusting the latency of your soundcard or switching to the WDM (Windows Classic) driver model (if you're using ACID Pro 4.0). HTH, Iacobus

If you zoom in on the recorded track, does it seem like there's a delay before the track's audio actually begins? To test this out, start recording a couple measures before actually recording vocals. If you're spot on and you know it but the track still seems off, you may want to manually adjust recording latency on the Audio tab under Options>Preferences on the menu bar. HTH, Iacobus
