Latency is a measure of the delay between the time you make a sound and the time the computer records (or monitors) that sound. Here, the unit for latency is the number of samples the driver collects before sending them to an application as input. Lower latency can make recording easier and more accurate but not all computer systems can operate at the lowest latencies without introducing noise. If you experience unwanted input noise, increase latency.
