Subject: Re: [AN1x-list] hardware latency trouble

From: Bruce Wahler <bruce@...>

Gustavo,

Does the problem happen with no computer in the loop? If the answer is
"no," then I suspect that there is something strange going on in your MIDI
interface software.

If the answer is "yes," wonder if this is related to the overflow problem
that I brought up a while back. I have one patch -- and only one patch --
that seems to store up notes when played very fast; i.e., if I play a
two-hand riff, and then pull my hands away quickly, I can hear some of the
"extra" notes play while my hands are off the keyboard.

Regards,

-BW
