My vocals come in prematurely when recorded over a song

[bryant]

I just have a basic mike plugged into the back of the computer's mic in. And a basic set of speakers plugged into the back in the speaker out jack. A basic inboard sound card that plays files well with other recording programs.

I use Microstudio 4.003 and didn't notice it till just recently.

Like I said, I record segments, play back to see how I sound, then usually delete afterwards, but there is a delay there somewhere?
