MIDI effect latencies

Post by zlatko » Tue Jun 08, 2010 12:36 pm

Hi Guys,

I have a problem, as soon as there is a m4l device in the set, a re-recording of a midi clip will suffer in almost 1/128th note latency at 120bpm, rather unwanted swing.
If I can mail you the livepack that demonstrates let me know.

Yep. I'm having similar issues already discussed on the forums, confirmed by others but without solution.
I suspect it's a design problem related to midi latency (compensation) of M4L devices.

What happens if you run the set with different audio buffer sizes (eg. 64 vs. 1024)?

cool, so they must be looking at it,
MIDI latency increases with Audio Buffer size over here...

Yes, that's what I've noticed too.
The latency of a midi effect device seems corresponding to the buffer size, for example 512/44100 -> 12ms.
