MIDI delay/latency?

Post by kiki_90291 »

Hi all - just got a SH-201 and hooked it up to the computer for the first time tonight. I finally sorted out all the routing through Ableton Live and was able to use it as a midi controller for the instruments in Live. I tried it first through Chordspace Playa and it worked fine other than a huge delay between pressing the key and hearing the note - maybe 200-300 ms? When I had the SH-201 sound at the same time the gap sounded huge . . . I figured it was just Chordspace taking a while to process the notes, but then when I just went direct to an instrument in Live there was still a delay - much smaller (sub-100 ms), but still there - is this normal? Is this an Ableton issue or a problem with the SH-201 (or the USB driver).

Thanks!
