much more knowledge than I've got.

Hi Paul :)

    * Have you used other GIG files too, but this particular piano sound?
    * You are sure that you don't use an effect, e.g. a delay?

Pardon, I guess this is something you know yourself, it's just that I 
want to except that the GIG is bad or an effect was disregard.

    * Which version on what architecture of 64 Studio do you run? I
      guess because of your hardware the architecture is amd64, but some
      people prefer to run x86 even on 64-bit. Do you run 2.1 or
      3.0-beta3? I don't know if anybody used QSampler with 3.0-beta3
      ;). I didn't use it and I only will make a test, if you are using
      3.0-beta3 too, because I'm a little bit lazy ;). For 2.1
      QSamplers's latency was fine on my machine and I never heard that
      your trouble occurred by someone else. It might be an issue for
      3.0-beta3. Dunno.
    * Did you changed anything for your plain vanilla, OOB installation?

Do you know QSynth, resp. fluidsynth-dssi? 1. QSampler should work, we 
should try to figure out what the problem is, but  2. if you need to 
finish a song, you might like to use a "soundfont" instead of a GIG?! 
Quasi as a band aid.

Best,
Ralf
