Hey all, sorry I haven't posted in awhile. Recently it was like Christmas around my place because my new laptop and my new 88-key weighted midi controller arrived.
The midi controller is an m-audio keystation pro 88.
Here's the snafoo ... I've got some vst intstruments (native instruments elektrik piano to be specific) loaded up in cubase. I've got my ASIO4ALL drivers installed and the buffer set as low as it will go before clipping and dropouts.
I'm STILL getting some latency issues. It's not much ... 3-4 ms, but it's just enough to screw up my playing.
I did some tests (all within Cubase):
Recording to a click track playing single notes on time with the click. No problem.
Recorded a keyboard part to a click track. No problem.
Then I imported a wav drum beat and tried playing to that. The latency was behind the beat, so my hands instinctively played ahead of the beat to get something that sounded 'on'. Problem is that Cubase is not recording what I hear, but rather what I play - which means that when I play the recording back, the keys are way ahead of the beat.
BAH!
Help!
