Re: MIDI recording problem

2002-08-26 by joesapo

I guess I hadn't thought of doing it that way, so far I've just been 
treating my XL-7 as a sound module, then transfering over stuff when 
I get something I like.  This would also probably also make sure that 
whatever tick a note starts on in my computer sequencer it also 
starts at that point on my command station.  As of right now, every 
note is just a *little* bit off, but good enough.  As far as latency 
in Cakewalk, I can't get any lower than about 10ms.  Do you think 
that this might be why I'm getting that recording latency?  I've 
tried using Cubase SX and Logic and Fruityloops (what I started on), 
but none perform with MIDI as well as Sonar.  Any help you might be 
able to offer would be great.
