Ray,
Well, I guess it depends on the sound card in your system, the OS involved, and any other software that might be running on the computer. Mine seems to add 10-20mSec delay to the recording, and it also seems to drop out occasionally when both playing and recording audio at the same time. (Playing MIDI and recording audio seems to work OK, not counting the delay.) One obvious answer would be to get a professional-quality sound card, but I'm assuming that if the person who asked the question was frowning on buying a second, multitimbral synth, then he would also frown on buying a new sound card. Thus, I suggested the safest, most straightforward way to record.
A second option would be to dedicate a computer 100% to music, stripping it of any extraneous functions. My budget doesn't allow me to do so.
