Latency with External Sequencer
Posted: Fri Jul 30, 2021 9:49 am
I recently sold my Push 2 on the premise that I have a digitakt, digitone and SL 49 Mk3 that I can use for sequencing, and I have pads and pots with decent Ableton integration on the SL. Besides that, I want an MPC One and have no space for both that and a Push.
The problem I have is that if I want to use any of the external sequencers on vsts, and record the midi into Ableton I have ~ 20-30ms of latency that I don't know how to fix.
I've watched this video on youtube which suggests adding a track delay to compensate for the latency, but it does absolutely nothing for me.

Any ideas where I'm going wrong? I contacted Novation for support, but the response was a virtual shrug of the shoulders and told that's just how it is.
Setup:
Ableton Live 10 and 11
Windows 10 Desktop PC
AMD Ryzen 5 3600
16GB RAM
Novation SL Mk3 49 via USB
Elektron Digitakt/Digitone via USB
Behringer XR18 interface @ 64 sample buffer size
48kHz sample rate
Input latency 2.83ms
Output latency 2.5ms
Ableton driver error compensation 1.25ms
Delay compensation enabled
Reduced latency when monitoring enabled
Thanks in advance.
