I am by far the furthest person from a midi person, but I have a friend that has a small home studio that he does a lot of midi in, and he is having serious delas into any program that he is running, he has an audigy i think, is external, and then he runs it into sonys latest and greatest app... I ran it into nuendo and it was the same thing... I admit, I am not a midi person, passed the class, and that was all i had to do with it, now I would not mind learning more, have read all that you go, but I am a "see" and "do" type of person, so if anyone can help, that would be cool... dB, Noize, i figure this is your arena?

Nov 03, 2004 09:13 pm Chances are good the latency on the sound card is poor. I had to upgrade my sound card from a Sound Blaster LIVE 5.1 to an M-Audio 2496 and that solved my problem. Be sure to that all of your software drivers are up to date and if so try to use ASIO drivers if possible (they may not be available for Audigy). dB or Noize can probalby answer better than I can. Goodluck!

Nov 14, 2004 10:36 pm Yep, Albetv05 has it right. It is probably a driver issue or mostly just the fact that the audigy is not really meant for use in that type of arena.
Asio drivers would sure help the matter but I am not sure they have them available. Might look to third party drivers for it and they might hlep hop it up a bit.
Mut dont blame the midi part for the delay as it is caused by the latency of the audio card, not the midi port.
Nov 14, 2004 10:58 pm until you get a new card you can try messing with the card's buffer size, i heard. either increase size or decrease and the latency responds to that. there is tradeoff though. i forget what it is...
