Sync voice with track

Jordi A

Hello, to complete the entire process of making songs, learning and creating with Native Instruments, I need to record and add vocals to the tracks. When recording and coupling the voice I have synchronization problems, although I use "play range" and "selection range", it seems very complicated to me because every small nuance in the voice outside the tempo is perceived. More than an answer, I think I need advice since in music studios when you finish recording you can listen with the same synchronization with which you recorded (I can do that in Cubase, but I prefer to finish the project mixing with Ozone).

What would be the best way to record and couple the voice with projects made in maschine3 software and maschine MK3 hardware?

Thank you kindly! I have managed to improve the recording result significantly.

Thank you!

So you're running Ozone on the music or the vocal while you're recording?

At the moment I don't use effects on the voice. I use Ozone in "Master", to bring together all the "Groups" and their "Sounds". 
When recording any instrument by pressing "Shift" and "Rec" the metronome gives you the input. But that doesn't work for my voice because the recorder stays in "waiting" and the recording starts on the first syllable. This causes the recorded voice track to be out of sync with the track. 
This is the problem I want to solve.I will take into account any recommendations or advice. 
Thank you.

My question is to determine if you're using Ozone during the vocal recording process, because it would introduce a delay to the audio, meaning you would hear it later (so your voice would be behind).

Jordi A

It is possible that this is the problem. 
I was testing Ozone in the "Master" of each song and since the result favors the dynamics, I kept it active recording the voice. 
Tonight I'll try without Ozone "none" and I'll tell you if I've had any luck with my voice. 
Thank you very much!

Ozone is a nice plugin, however it is (IMHO) a bloated one and one of the worst I have ever used for causing huge latency. It should be avoided in a project when you are recording and only ever used in the mixing stage. Even just having it sitting active in a project can cause a noticable delay in things.

If you bypass the plugin while recording it should remove the latency and overhead so be sure to leave it disabled or removed and add it in after you have your recordings done.
