But not necessarily in real-time. For the recording you generally only care about audio quality and jitter, not latency and gui updates. Latency in the recording can be easily compensated, after all. I was assuming the original poster had problems recording because the latency of the real-time audio feedback was confusing his rhythm - I certainly have that problem when playing through a MIDI instrument that has excessive latency - but indeed that was my assumption. David: could you clarify? Are you having problems with the real-time audio output, the behavior of the GUI or with the recorded audio? Or something else entirely? :) Kind regards, Arnout > On 28/08/2011 11:43, Arnout Engelen wrote: > > On Sat, Aug 27, 2011 at 11:39:28PM +0100, David Gerard wrote: > >> On 27 August 2011 23:11, Nikos Chantziaras<rea...@arcor.de> wrote: > >>> "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). > >> This does not match what I'm observing: a delay in notes being written > >> to the piano roll, not just a delay in the sound of the notes being > >> played. > > 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. > > > > > > Arnout > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > 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. > > Guaranteed. http://p.sf.net/sfu/emc-vnx-dev2dev > > _______________________________________________ > > Lmms-users mailing list > > Lmms-users@lists.sourceforge.net > > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/lmms-users > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > 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. > Guaranteed. http://p.sf.net/sfu/emc-vnx-dev2dev > _______________________________________________ > Lmms-users mailing list > Lmms-users@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/lmms-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 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.
