Re: midi latency

2002-08-06 by hinckc

Cool, thanks for the reply...

I just found the "wave profiler" settings in the audio options, so I 
think that they're set right now.

However, I've noticed some other weird things happening, and I 
already had those latency settings set quite low.

I played for a while on Sunday, and I noticed that one time the 
latency was short, like a couple hundred milliseconds, but later, 
when I went back to do some others, it became HUGE, like 10's of 
seconds, up to almost 30, and there was never any dropout, just a 
long long delay.  After resetting both the PC and the DTX, it was OK 
again.  This seems to me to be more like the units are automatically 
replying back and forth, and there's no more bandwith on the midi 
cable to send the message.  They get sent eventually, but after a 
while.

Anyhow, I hope the latency settings take care of it, and it's just 
good to know that what I've setup so far is somewhat like what other 
people are doing with all this equipment! :)
