GarageBand or Beats Studio Pro latency issues

Just purchased a pair of Beats Studio Pro headphones and trying to use them "wired" with GarageBand. There's now a latency problem which I never had with an old cheap set of headphones. I've tried both the USB-C and regular headphone jack options, but am having the delay issue. The latency is via a (Tonor) microphone while podcast recording. (GarageBand 10.4.9 on an M2 MacBook Air w/16g memory))

Any suggestions or tips...as the current latency is just about unusable. I appreciate any help!

GarageBand not picking up audio All of a sudden GarageBand won’t pick up any audio. In the mac settings it will pick up both my usb mic and the internal mic fine however, in GarageBand it won’t pick up either. It was picking up both last week and working fine but it’s suddenly stopped today. I use it regularly and never had a problem before. I have tried/checked: restarting both the MacBook and garageband unplugging - re plugging in the mic etc. The privacy settings are correct the input settings are correct The latest versions are running Any help/insight would be great thanks!

My Macbook ignores the song volume and equalizer - any solution? Whenever I play music through my wireless headphones (Sony WH-1000XM4) on my Macbook Pro, I can't hear any difference when I change the song volume and/or equalizer - does anyone has a solution for this? This problem occurred since the update to Monterey.

Audio latency issue on my MacBook Pro Hi. I'm looking for help because I have an annoying problem. I've been using a 2012 i7/16GB MacBook Pro (macOS Catalina) and a Roland TD-27 with built-in audio interface for live playing in Superior Drummer 3. Sample rate has been set to 64 for several years and zero problems - even with several background apps on, including YouTube. I decided to upgrade to a 2015 i7/16GB MacBook Pro with macOS Monterey. Since then I've been hearing crackling, popping, and the CPU on the theoretically more powerful laptop is being used up 100%. I'm already used to the low latency, so I don't want to raise the sample rate. I used the Roland TD-27 driver from the version for the Catalina system and the dedicated one for Big Sur/Monterey - no change. I also did a system downgrade from Monterey to Big Sur - still the same. How is it possible that more powerful hardware can't handle what a 13-year-old MacBook can? Today I installed macOS Catalina (as in an older Mac) and it's better, albeit with occasional crackling. [Re-Titled by Moderator]
