So that's not an option.Īh, now I understand your predicament. If i play it through an external speaker i ofcourse have no latency but i then obviously can not record or use any kind of drum software.
I use programs like EZdrummer so the TD9 goes through the computer to pick up those sounds. There may be a better way, but I have not found it yet.īitflipper, what other options are there than monitoring through the computer? I'm not sure i understand this. Then I time come back and make sure the drums are aligned to the click if there is a lag, and then I track the rest of the music. Later I come back and adjust the midi track to time align accurately with the previously recorded guitars and bass.Ĭurrently I have low enough latency that I can monitor off the computer but generally, I track the drums early in the process with a guide bass or guitar or click. Then I just record the midi data into the computer during the process. These are both routed into a headphone amp so I can hear both signals. I monitored off the drum module as I am listening to the computer tracks. Here is what I use to do before I upgraded my computer. Alternatively as pointed out above, you can just record at a faster rate to lower your latency. This is not a great place to monitor from unless you have very fast hardware and exceptional drivers. In the second scenario there will be perceived delay from hitting the drums because you are monitoring the sound off EZ after the midi data has been captured and then after it triggers EZ. In the first scenario, you can monitor with headphones at the TD9, capture the midi data at the same time, then use that midi data to trigger EZ. The second one says you don't want the TD9 sounds, just the midi data which will trigger EZ drummer. The first one says you want to record the sounds of the TD9 into the computer (maybe along with the midi data). Tripod, you are trying to record the audio from your TD9, while listening to (monitoring) playback from Sonar? " Yes, that's what i am doing (i think) Is that wrong? I will check out the input echo thing. I know some folks doubt this, but as someone who's worked a lot with triggering of drum samples, there's a huge difference in feel between triggering with 3ms vs. Increase the sample-rate to 96k and the round-trip latency drops to 2.2ms (96-sample ASIO buffer size/96k).įor your purposes, I'd want round-trip latency to be in the 3ms range. Ie: The RME USB units yield 4.9ms round-trip latency at a 48-sample ASIO buffer size/44.1k RME (although not cheap) is particularly good. If doubling the sample-rate isn't possible (for performance reasons), then the only solution is to use an audio interface that yields lower round-trip latency. and you cut the latency of the ASIO input/output buffers in half (albeit at the expense of higher CPU use). The only way to mitigate the 7.4ms RTL is to increase the sample-rate at which you're working.ĭouble the sample rate. but it's not low enough for your purpose. It yields round-trip latency of 7.4ms at a 48-sample ASIO buffer size/44.1k. The OctoCapture is a good audio interface. and one that uses a small hidden safety-buffer.
That means using an audio interface that goes down to a 32 or 48-sample ASIO buffer size. It can certainly be done, but you need to get round-trip latency down as low as possible. What you're looking to accomplish is *the* most timing sensitive objective. That means that every single person out there with electronic drums has the same problem. I checked every possible setting, i spent days trying different options but nothing seems to be able to fix this. I'm using a SSD ddrive on a fast enough computer with plenty of ram. The guitars, mic, keyboard.just the midi drums have a delay when playing. This can't be the only option right? Every other instrument is fine. Is there anything i can do about this? It's driving me nuts! The only way to record songs is to play the drum track first and then fill in the rest. Playing live with other people is not possible either because the drum is always a fraction of a second behind. It isn't much but enough to make playing along with the guitars or bass or a click near impossible. I'm using a Roland TD9 together with Sonar Producer and no matter what i try i keep getting a delay when playing. I realize this has been discussed before but i can't find a solution to my latency problem. Latency when playing electronic drums, no matter what i try
