latency - half second or more delay

Post by AndyH »

Hi

I just got a G2M and hooked it up to my PC via a USB midi interface ... connected into Sonar 7 and it's internal software sound module

It seems to work ok ... (may have to play around with the levels as it misses the odd note)

But at the moment it is unuseable, as it has a half second or more delay between playing and the sound being produced ... this simply does not happen when I connect the keyboard, so I dont think it is a setup / software issue on the computer

the advert states very low latency ... can you advise me how to overcome this problem please ?

Many thanks
Andy :D

I think the latency of your audio system (sound card) must be the problem. The default settings for SONAR with a standard windows (MME) devices are too long for real-time use.
