Hi Guy's

Hope some one can help me. When i go to record midi playing keyboard you can see and hear that the midi isn't in sync and i have to go back and manully place them with the mouse to sound in sync, is there some way i can play the keyboard and live will automatically sync the midi for me??

Hey Jerico,

Are you talking audio latency (a), sync problems with midi clock (b) or your timing that is off (c)?

(a) Make sure you have relevant drivers and sample buffer setting for your audio interface. On windows this means using Asio drivers.

(b) Check the midi preferences and make adjustments to midi clock sync delay to match your system. This need some trial and error.

(c) Learn to play in time. ...or turn on automatic quantize in the edit menu.

All of these methods are described in more detail in the manual.

Cheers!

sometimes i get a delay between when i hit the key on my novation remote sl compact and when it actually plays in live. i save my set and quit live turn my remote sl off and on than open the set again and that usually does the trick as they say.

Cheers for a reply lads. cheers Lo-Fi Massahkah i'll check my midi preferences when i get home.
