Live 10 Windows Midi latency issue

Post by SilverStag » Sat Jun 04, 2022 11:17 am

Hi,

I'm having issues with midi IN having a noticeable delay after I press a key on my keyboard.

I've opened a fresh set and assigned the built-in grand piano to a midi track and there is a delay when I hit a key. Any thoughts would be really helpful!

Changing sample rate, input buffer or driver error seem to make little difference, but turning output buffer right down makes it almost in time but terrible quality.

Keyboard : Alesis Q49

PC: Windows 10, Ram 16GB, Processor i7 @ 3.4 Ghz

Ableton: 10.1.42 Build 2021-11-04

Settings: Driver MME/DirectX, I/O Sample rate 48000 High Quality, Input Buffer 6288, Output Buffer 1744, Driver Error -7.00

Using Windows mme direct x drivers is your problem. Either buy an audio interface or use asio4all as last resort.
