So I'm having trouble getting my audio to synchronize with my playing like it would with audio exclusivity turned on. I only want it off so I can record the game. Does anyone know how to decrease or fix this latency problem?

I would leave exclusivity on and set up Bandicam (or whatever you use) to be able to record with exclusivity on.

 

It's called different things on different pcs, and can be called something else if you run an actual soundcard with its own drivers/software, but essentially you want to record the overall output mix of your sound device.

 

By default Bandicam is set up to record the primary application that's running (BF4, CS:GO, Rocksmith, whatever), but you can change the settings to record the overall sound output (BF4 + Your mic + Windows beeps etc etc).  Dig through the menus in Bandicam and change the audio it records to the one you require.

 

For example, on my pc its called "What U Hear" because I use Creative X-Fi sound, but I've heard it called many different things.  The most common sound devices are Realtek, and in this case its called "Stereo Mix".

 

 

 

It's possible to do it the way you describe, and you would edit the .ini file in your Rocksmith folder to set latency manually.  But I think its far more comfortable to play with exclusivity on using your normal latency settings.  Your vids will end up better if you are comfortable and not worrying about crappy latency while playing :D
