??? You mean midi is slower with AMT activated? To be honest, I think
AMT only works in one direction -> towards midi out and not midi in...
not sure though.
So, when you play a synth/sampler (real one, no software) with AMT
enabled, it's not "realtime"?

AMT has no effect on audio instruments, and midi should be fast enough
so you don't notice it when playing to midi in!

Well, 6 ms and 12 ms is still very nice. I also set my Hammerfall to
12ms during mixdown to make sure there are no clicks etc.

I'm not sure about this... personally I don't think they'll add that
functionality. There's a software package by www.chickensys.com (or
something like that), that does something similar. Maybe that does what
you need.

Yes: correct: the buffers of the ASIO drivers. MME drivers are usually
muuuuch slower.

Didn't know that! Thanks for the tip! I'll check it out at once!
