Latency with Roland Boutique synths

Post by B3nn3tt » Wed Apr 21, 2021 5:55 am

Hi there

I'm trying to resolve latency when recording patterns with my TR-09 & TB-03 I've had some success but at best the recording is always just a tiny bit late when it arrives on the beat grid. Sometimes as much as a 1/4 beat late at worst.

-Latency adjustment in External Instrument doesn't fix it
-Recording as incoming audio instead of Internal Instrument doesn't fix it
-Using an audio interface or USB direct to the laptop doesn't fix it

It's triggering in sync with the rest of Ableton perfectly when the audio from the Boutiques goes straight to the speakers, it's only when recording the latency happens.

I'm now wondering that it might be that I only have 8gb RAM in this MacBook. Is this just a RAM issue and I need more of it to process the incoming MIDI / Audio faster?

Any advice at all would be appreciated!

Thankyou
