To check whether the latency is introduced in LMMS or somewhere earlier in the stack, hook up a MIDI monitor like KMidiMon to see if the events do arrive directly. I don't see how switching to JACK would help in this particular case. To take LMMS out of the equation, try if the latency is also there when using Qsynth - it defaults to JACK, but it can also output ALSA. > (Unless LMMS insists on starting playing the note before adding it to > the piano roll ...) I don't know how LMMS works, but it would make sense to output the sound directly and postpone updating the GUI to whenever the system has some time to spare.
