Audio Latency
"Latency" is the time it takes for your computer's soundcard to process incoming data and output
a sound. The lower your latency is, the faster your computer will respond to commands and output
sound.
A good example of latency is the time it takes for the computer to output a sound when a key is
struck on a MIDI keyboard connected to it. In this situation, it is important to have low latency so
that there is no audible delay between the time the key is struck and when the note is heard.
If you experience a significant delay between the time you play and the time that the computer
outputs audio, we recommend going into your software's Preferences, Device Setup, or Options
to make sure that your soundcard's latency (or buffer) is set to a low number—ideally lower than
15-20ms.
If you experience too much latency after adjusting your software latency settings, we recommend
the free ASIO4ALL (Audio Stream Input/Output) driver for PC at asio4all.com. ASIO drivers
generally perform better than the computer's built-in drivers and with lower latency since they
create a more efficient communication between audio devices and software.
1. Download and install the free ASIO4ALL driver from asio4all.com. This will allow for low-
latency performance.
2. Double click the installer file (.exe). Follow the on-screen prompts to install the included low-
latency ASIO4ALL driver.
