About Audio Drivers and Latency
Latency is the time that elapses when a note-on message is transmitted from a connected external MIDI
device until the computer passes the sound out the audio outputs. The lower the latency number in ms
the less you will notice a delay when you play. This setting is going to depend on the type of audio
interface you use. An ASIO interface will produce much less latency then using MME (Multi Media
Extension). If you do not have an ASIO interface, use Direct Sound. A good quality professional ASIO
audio interface will produce more desirable results.
