How annoying.
No. It gets to LMMS first. But "latency" is the delay it takes for LMMS to get the event and then to generate the sound that event should produce and then it takes additional time for the sound to reach the hardware (sound card). I'd recommend JACK2 with the QjackCtl GUI to control it. It's very easy. The only tweaks that affect performance are "Frames/Period" and "Periods/Buffer". Try 64 and 2. Raise one of them if the system can't keep up. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ EMC VNX: the world's simplest storage, starting under $10K The only unified storage solution that offers unified management Up to 160% more powerful than alternatives and 25% more efficient.
