Skitch leaves plasq
The great screen capture, annotation and sharing service has all grownup, left the plasq stables and become its own fully fledged company.

For users this change will not affect you in any noticeable way - skitch.com is still the main home and some of the same people are working on it but you'll be seeing big things coming soon!

If you have not tried out Skitch yet - give it a go... You're missing out!

 How do I get rid of latency? - 2008/09/23 19:29 Hello,

My setup is a mac (main host), connected to a PC (vst effects and instruments) via a gigabyte LAN.
The mac is connected to a fireface 800. The Pc is using the onboard audio from a gigabyte mobo.
Using the program MidiOverLan CP, I am trying to play a vst instrument (which is only available for PC), from a midi keyboard which is connected to the mac.
When using WH2 to get the audio generated by the VSTi back into mac, there is alot of latency which I can not get rid of.

The buffer size in cubase (mac) is 128 samples. The lowest buffer size I can get on the Pc is 512.

I would like to run the mac as my main sequencer and use the PC for vst effects and instruments.

Does the PC require a better audiocard?

How do I get rid of the latency?

I would most appreciate any help or advise anyone can give me on this.

THANKS in advance!!!!!

 Re:How do I get rid of latency? - 2008/09/24 10:19 If you're triggering virtual instruments via midi, you can nudge the midi tracks for them earlier to compensate for the latency.

To measure latency, send a midi note to the PC(trigger a percussive sound), then record audio from it on the mac. measure the distance between the beginning of the midi note and the initial peak of the audio(just select the area in between them)

the length of this area you just selected is how far you need to nudge your midi tracks back. The most precise way to measure it is obviously in samples.

You can also use a similar method to compensate for effects, but this can get complicated in a hurry because effects will all have different amounts of delay depending on what they are.
