anyone having issues with external instruments?

Post by mikeharper »

I have some legacy keyboards in my system in which i cant seem tp get working. My system experiences very long latency and what seems like MIDI loop back issues.I don't have these issue with my cu base. Also virtual instruments- (kontact - Play) are fine, I am trying to re record a older peice that uses some older sounds and want to use DP. I have a ongoing ticket with Motu . I am wondering if others have had similar issues in windows

I had latency and log-jam effects going on that seemed like a MIDI loop, but it was confirmed to be the USB3 connection in my computer was confounding my MIDI interface (MOTU MIDI Express XT). I bought a Powered USB2 USB bus and that solved all my issues (well, except my AKAI MPK249 doesn't like it..).
