latency using Midi on XP
Hi All. I'm new to the list, I'm nick, a software engineer from the UK. When I was in my teens I did quite a bit of messing around with midi. I used cakewalk express and used their virtual piano software as an input device. This was on a windows 98 box. Recently I've wanted to get back to doing a bit of composing again so managed to find the cakewalk express disk and had a play around. cakewalk seems to work fine on my XP laptop but the midi out on xp seems to have about half a second latency making it unworkable. I've tried downloading the yamaha soft synth which seemed to have the same problem. I've also tried using fluid synth which claims to be a real-time sound font synth. I don't know much about sound fonts and although the latency was better with that it still wasn't usable and XP seemed to grind to a crawl. I'd be happy to here any suggestions for getting this to work so that I can have playback and record at the same time. The box isn't the best in the world but it's way more powerful than the old windows 98 box I had. I can run virtual machines on it so it should be easily powerful enough to do midi. Any ideas gladly received. Thanks. Nick. To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
Re: latency using Midi on XP
Hi Nick. I say if you can run a virtual machine, virtualize Mac. You might be interested in getting protools/logic, but if you're not, just install the basic Mac OS and use something like Garageband. That should work for your needs. Jorge On Feb 3, 2011, at 3:20 PM, Nick Adamson wrote: Hi All. I'm new to the list, I'm nick, a software engineer from the UK.

Re: latency using Midi on XP
Hi George. Thanks for the suggestion but I don't believe that you can get a Mac based virtual machine that'll run on a windows host. I'd love to be wrong about this as I'd like to try out a MAC but with out having to spend the big bucks on a system I may not like. Thanks.
