To be more sharp, i need to reduce latency because i use softsynth (zynaddsubfx, fluidsynth, etc.) that needs a low latency when playing from midi keyboard, and if not, there is a "lag" time, that man can hear, between the time when you hit the key, and the time it is played. I don't know about wich latency i spoke, i think it is system latency. So I think that buffer size is **the** parameter to change. Is that true ?
