Re: [elektron] Does sidstation have latency?

2005-03-20 by microkorg666

I checked that song, but couldnt really tell about the latency.

I would like to know how long in seconds (miliseconds)is the latency 
aprox. Is it more than 0.5 seconds? Does it make precission midi 
sequencing impossible for live sets?

Im not really sure if I should get it, this latency thing could be 
frustrating.

Thanks
