Well, I guess I forgot because it doesn't affect me. I don't use a MIDI controller, I enter the notes one by one with the computer keyboard. Therefore, I couldn't care less about latency Cheesy

I din't know ASIO had much to do with MIDI, but what I hate is the update time of the visuals (I always wondered why visuals are affected by sound-latency, anyway).

What I mean is: you only need latency if you're playing in real time, because that's when latency matters. If I enter the notes one by one, editing the pattern, I shouldn't care about latency.

You're right about that, but I like low latencies during playback for the reason stated above. And I hate the playback delay. There should be some visual correction of the playback cursor to make high delays not so bad.

Oh, I get it now. It's not that the latency affects visuals: it's just that sound lateny is bigger than "visual latency".

Actually, both wink .
Sometimes programs seem to link their visual update frequency to the sound latency. Say you have 100 (or 50) ms, then the program updates visuals with a frequency of 10 (or 20)Hz ... Get my drift cheesy ? Cause that's slow... and impossible to work with evil ...

hey pph,

hum...renoise sounds tempting, but i wont cross until i donīt see the need.
is renoise machine based and modular?

i have to solve some buzz issues (multiple vsti outs, opening midi files) and iīll dig for a piano roll editor.(any tips anyone?) but if i do - great.

i like the win gui. itīs so bad and ugly - i love it. makes me think "iīm very hardcore, look at me" Smiley

it works somehow.

ps - thanks for the acoustic tips. i am using orchestration now periodically - it added nicely to my synth palette. sort of broadened my vocabulary.


peace

Renoise is fully modular, but not machine-based like Buzz.

Yes, it uses VSTs. And there are many good VSTs out there. Of course, it's not compatible with Buzz Machines. There is, however, something called BuzzVST, which is a sort of VST version of Buzz. I never got it to work, but it could be an alternative. FruityLoops has an adapter for Buzz Machines too, if I'm not mistaken. And it has a piano roll, that seems to be something you're looking for.

Something I found. A whole orchestral library. Free.
