I'm having some difficulty following this thread. Are we talking about  the 
buffer located in the Audio Drivers ASIO section? Help me out...

One thing I did recently that helped dramatically with latency in and out, 
was to adjust the EXS sampler preferences:
Create an instance of the EXS>Click on the Edit menu>In the Sampler Map 
Screen, click Edit/Preferences>Switch to 32 bit float. It uses twice as much 
RAM to drive the sampler, but it really makes a difference. This is not the 
default so it must be set. If you don't have enough RAM, consider getting 
some. I run Logic with a 200MB partition and the response-timing feel is 
excellent (a fast processor helps too).
