Latency(ASIO Buffer)Issues, Share Your Support! On Behalf of newbies......!!

I think most of us here gone through these problems. Especially a newbie who just started with his or her home Studio or Composition.
What we face most is a Delay on real time recording of the instruments or if you creating music through MIDInterface. We got a slite delay between Recorded and played Note. Thats the case, I'm also facing now. So i dedicate this thrade if its being popular to a newcomer(newbie) & a expert one who can help out of this problem.
I just bought a EMU0404(pci) sound card. and in reason its not so perfect when i playing it through my Sythesizer (Roland E-16) My PC Configuration is : P-IV 3.0 (HT), MOTHERBOARD D101 With Shared undedicated 256mb of my system RAM, 768mb OF DDR(400) RAM, A SEAGATE 80GB (SATA) HDD.
I have configured Reason (Steps for who dont know how to configure reason : Click Edit > Preferences > Select Audio from Page > Select the proper Audio Card Driver > if DirectX driver then Configure the Slider of Buffer Size , if a Asio Driver Like Emu-Asio, Asio4all or what ever it Installed > configure it through its Control Panel below of that page) at 440 samples of a output latency of 9ms. but still it have a slight latency problem.
And in Fruity Loops it's not working properly too. but we will discuss it later.
I have some questions Like:
a)What is Latency Compensation?
b)Do we Exceed the RAM Limit?
c)Do we Exceed the Processor?
d)Do we have to buy a Workstation?
and many more...........
I have problem with the Rewired part too, with Nuendo3 or Cubasis too. but still it will be after that.
So Please, The expertise here can share their experiences with us. Many thanks at advance.
Eagerly waiting for your sujjestion too Come....... From "Help Gurus"

You should be able to work using 2-5.8 ms (96-256 samples) w/ your 3GHz/HT PC (IIRC, HT and SATA may cause problems) using software instruments (and even lower settings when using Rolands HW synth as playback device). There are some extra latency coming from MIDI connections:
MIDI keyboard internal response to keystroke -- this is not instantaneous but on a good keyboard should be under 1 msec or so
MIDI transport latency
- If you're using MIDI cables, this is 1 msec per note in the chord, before the last note in the chord sounds. In other words, for a 6-note chord, the first note is delayed by 1 msec, the second by 2, etc., to the 6th note that is delayed by 6 msec.
- If you're using MIDI over a high-speed technology like USB, Firewire, or mLAN, there is still transmission latency but the per-note effect is far, far lower -- probably not measurable.
BTW, ASIO is maybe the best device driver for recording use for every system. IIRC, the E-MU WDM driver is not good at all. When you record using direct monitoring (monitor the dry signal only) then, there are normally no hearable latency but, when you want to monitor the wet signal (software effects/instruments added) then you need to use latency settings around 7 ms (4-10 ms) to get the delay avoided. This is not easily achieved when you have project w/ plenty of tracks and plenty of VST/DX effects/instruments added/in use and you want to play everythin in background while recording a new track).
Some thoughts for your guestions:
a) I suppose you'll find a brief explanation for this by googling around. In generally, latency compensation (if available) is done automatically (VST/DX plug-ins) so you don't need to worry 'bout it, or set manually (as like in Sonar 6 for ASIO latency when you set the offset where the recorded data is placed in timeline).
b) RAM limit ? There are known limits as like 2GB/3GB/4GB for program/data space
--> Cubase has well known (~1.5 GB) RAM limit http://forum.cubase.net/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=57331 (! continue to the another thread (link in 8th post))
--> you may need to enable IMAGE_FILE_LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE set in executables image header (see instructions from Cubase.net forum link)
--> you need least 1-2 GB RAM to get most sample based instruments working
--> low amount of RAM like you have there, remember set the virtual memory large enough
--> VST/DX effects and typical VST/DX instruments won't consume much RAM (only sample based does)
c) CPU usage can be controlled by latency settings ...
When you record using plug-ins w/ 'software' monitoring (the way you can hear the plug-ins too), you need to set latency low (~5 ms) to get rid of delay between keypress and heard audio. You have only some methods you can use in this case to get the CPU usage down --> if you have plenty of tracks (w/ plug-ins) playing in background then you may get the CPU usage high --> pops/crackling/dropouts --> freezing tracks is good method then or bouncing (converting) MIDI tracks w/ software instruments to audio tracks, etc. Normally single tracks aren't a problem... you can use 2-5 ms latency settings then w/o troubles.
When you are doing mixing, you can use much higher latency settings (20 - 100 ms).
d) what do you mean by Workstation ... if just a prebuild DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) then aren't those normal PCs/MACs too? If you mean those hardware recording systems then, isn't that a bit expensive path for a E-MU 0404 owner?
ATM, problems comes from latest technology as like from SATA/RAID controllers, PCIe bus (graphics), FireWire Controllers, etc. (like in forums here, these have been mentioned many times along with X-Fi issues).

  • Problem with playback distortion. Possible latency buffer issue?

    I have noticed a few other posts in the same vain as this but with no clear answers so here is my take on the problem:
    I am experiencing a distorted slowed down playback through logic pro 8 only occasionally which can only be fixed wit a full system restart. It sounds very much like a latency/buffer issue but to be honest I am not too great at fixing this myself. I have tried to change the buffer size to no avail. Recording seems to be fine mostly but it is just on playback. Although today i did experience the same sound issues when recording.
    I am using a brand new macbook 2.4 ghz with a behringer xenix 1622 mixing desk and a usb audio device. I have only just switched to a mac and have recorded before on my pc with the same desk and interface for over 2 years without a problem, so I am positive it is not the external hardware that is at fault.
    I am getting exactly the same problem when I use Garageband.
    Is it just the apple products which do this?
    Is this a common problem with an easy fix?
    I just dont know to be honest with you, i dont pretend to be an expert in the field, it is infuriating.
    Is there a problem with my machine? If so I can change it no problem.
    Please if anyone knows how I can sort this please let me know.
    I am gutted because I bought a mac thinking they were designed for music production, i dont want a pc again!
    Thanks.

    Can you be more specific on your usb device; Make & model... USB2? Visit the manufacturer's website, check compatibility & make sure you've got the latest driver. If you haven't already, run "Software Update" (under the Apple logo in the top left of your screen) & download the updates... this will take a while, so go & get yourself a coffee! Make sure you turn Airport off when you want to use Logic.
    If you're still having prob's check out this link;
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304970
    It's written for Logic 7, but most of it's in the same place.
    Hope this helps.

  • ASIO Buffer Size for Records

    Hello!!!
    Please, help me to set up the ASIO buffer latency to make recordings made by Audition is clean and without cracklings and etc. When I had a value 1 ms of latency, after I've recorded a sample from any source by Audition, I've got some crackling when I playback this sample (in real-time in Audition, and in the recorded file). When I set up 5 ms - it's better. Maybe there is a standard to set up the ASIO buffer latency for Audition? I have a "Creative ASIO" driver and a device "Creative X-Fi Elite Pro".
    I just wanna using Audition to make records instead using the Creative audio recording software, which make records without crackling. I think Audition just have to make records without any cracklings too or might be better!!!
    Thank you!!!

    There's no quick answer.  In reality, it's a matter of turning it up until you get reliable recording and playback.  How much latency you need will depend on the spec of your computer, how well your computer is optimised for recording, how much other rubbish is running in background and the quality of the ASIO drivers provided with your sound card.
    The first thing I have to say is that the Creative X-Fi series of sound cards are NOT well thought of in the recording community.  They're aimed far more at gamers and people who want to watch videos than at serious sound recordists.  I've also heard a lot of horror stories about the poor quality of their drivers. 
    Beyond that, I'd suggest that you optimise your computer for recording--exactly how to do this will depend on what operating system your have.  However, a Google search on "optimising computer for sound recording" including your Windows version will find you lots of suggestions.  There will likely be some pages from Presonus near the top of your results--those are very good ones.
    Another point: shut down anything and everything running in background when you record.  Pay special attention to networking, Wifi and any anti virus software you have--all those are bad news when recording and mixing.
    Finally, depending on how/what you're recording, there may or may not be issues with cranking the ASIO latency up really high.  The problem with high latency only really comes into play when you're multi tracking along to pre recorded tracks AND you are monitoring your new track via the computer rather than directly on the sound card.  Proper interfaces for multitrack recording feature "direct hardware monitoring" which allows you to monitor via the interface rather than having to go via your software.  If you're serious about recording, you'll eventually need to ditch the X-Fi and get a specialist audio interface.
    So, optimise your computer, shut down anything unnecessary (especially wifi and anti virus) and just turn up the latency until it's reliable.  I know of some people who use a relatively low latency for recording and turn it up for mixing when they use lots of real time effects.

  • Zen micro freezes: share your experie

    Please share your experience with Zen Micro's hard disk problems with me.
    Unfortunately the beatiful zen micro i bought almost two years ago, is in a state of coma. It froze up and no option on the recovery mode could change that state.
    I know that a lot of you guys had/have the same problem, given the amount of help-threads.
    I sent the player to the shop since we have a two-years-warranty in Germany. The shop kept the player and refuses to exchange/repair my player.
    So I am about to contact a lawyer to sue the shop.
    Any evidence to support my case ? your experience with the freezing micro ? will back up my case.
    Thanks in advance!

    Issue appears to be resolved. The following is the instruction set sent by Creative Labs that I followed:
    . Ensure that the player is turned off.
    2. Remove the battery.
    3. Move and hold the Power button to the Power On position and re-insert
    the battery to the Zen Micro. Hold the Power button until the rescue
    mode appears.
    4. After 2-3 seconds the rescue menu will be displayed.
    At this point the battery can safely be replaced and maintenance options
    performed.
    5. Four options will be displayed on the LCD screen:
    ? Clean Up - (To rearrange your stored data)
    ? Format All - (To format and remove all data)
    ? Reload Firmware - (Reloads your player's operating system - Do not
    choose this option unless you have downloaded a firmware update from the
    Creative website)
    ? Reboot - (Restarts your Player)
    6. Select the Clean Up and then the Reboot option.
    Now, please try turning off the player.

  • Care to share your server/hardware config for Spatial?

    Hi there - we're in the early stages of planning for a new spatial system (geocoding a large volume of existing address data), and we'd like to get a sense of what different organisations might be using by way of server architecture for a high-availability, large volume dataset GIS where your typical spatial query is a within-polygon or buffer-type search of geocoded address data, and you might need to support several thousand of these per hour... (for example).
    Would you share your platform/CPU/OS/memory/storage config comments as they relate to a dedicated Oracle Spatial 10g DBMS?
    Or perhaps just suggest what you had to do in addition to the baseline 10gDBMS requirements to give Spatial room to perform well...
    Any comments are accepted with humble thanks.
    Kind regards
    Dennis

    Dennis,
    Several thousand, say 3000 per hour is less than one a second. I'm not sure how much data you have (define large), but in general I'd try to keep all, or most of the data in RAM to get the best performance possible. A Linux box with say, 512GB of RAM is entirely resonable to use. If your seach patter is geographicly time sensitive (moves based on time of day), you could also effectively use partition prunning to reduce the amount of data to be searched.
    This is will give you a single, fast, db. For HA you need at least two, depending on what you define HA as.

    Hi,
    1) With 11g recently becoming available, should we upgrade to 11g or upgrade to 10g ?You should upgrade to 10g, and apply the latest 10g patches.
    2) There is a white paper on Metaline (313418.1) that discusses using 10g with EBS. Is there anything similar for 11g ?11g is not available with the EBS. It has a different architecture and is not supported with EBS.
    3) Can anyone share with me how long the actual upgrade process takes (please specify if your timings are 10g or 11g) ? To upgrade you need to do a new install of Discoverer 10g and upgrade the EUL. Make sure you have a good backup of the EUL before starting. The Discoverer install is straightforward and the EUL upgrade only takes a minute. BUT although all the workbooks are upgraded they are changed in ways that you might not have expected. Parameters become optional, occasionally worksheets disappear, titles get corrupted, the SQL generated can different, may perform more slowly and may occasionally return different results. It is sorting out these issues and regression testing the workbooks that take the time.

  • Xmod Issues & lack of support

    !Xmod Issues & lack of support? After trading FOUR emails with Creative Tech Support to find out why my USB powered Altec Lansing speakers do not work with my Xmod, and asking for possible solutions (the only one being I have to buy ANOTHER pair of non-USB powered speakers), I finally received this reply...
    "Thank you for replying to Creative Technical Support.
    With regards to your inquiry, you do not need a power adapter for the
    Xmod cause it is only USB powered. Meanwhile, you can connect your Xmod
    to a powered speaker system.
    If you still require assistance, please reply to this email with any
    previous correspondence to ensure the quickest and most accurate
    service."
    Wow, not only can they NOT answer my question, but they don't even know their own product!? If it is ONLY USB POWERED, then why are so many people complaining in the forum about having to buy yet another $40 a/c adapter to meet their needs. I keep reading over and over about not using the forum for tech support issues, and instead,?that you should direct specific tech support issues to the Support re
    ps.
    Good luck on THAT one!

    Hear, hear...
    Since I don't see the Xmod anywhere on Creative's product list, well, should I...conclude it's now an orphan?
    Consider also this response when I got desperate enough to actually try the 'knowledgebase': "There are currently no Knowledgebase Solutions for?Xmod Wireless" - how can I not conclude that there simply IS no meaningful tech supportI mean...REALLYNothingIndeed, it does seem like an orphan - but if there ever was any online documentation worthy of this engineering effort, why would it have been removed?
    Mine came with LOTS of plastic bags and unnecessary packaging, but as far as paperwork goes, was conspicuously lacking in anything other than a barebones "quickstart"-type guide: ?just one folded sheet in each box (trans & receiver), with half of even that tiny amount of info devoted to languages other than English. ?Assembly was self-explanatory and simple - but that's all these silly little guides cover! ?Use of most features was absolutely baffling - it's like I am missing some software that should have come with it, but didn't, and there's no mention of it in the scant guides I have. ?Remotes have buttons for features like "menu," "display," etc but even with the USB connection in place and the device recognized, there doesn't seem to be any downloading of software that would make such features functional. ?It'll play my music from my player software, but there sure isn't any other usable remote or even wired control - other than the power button.
    Update: ?OK, there's a little more info available... but that's only if you find the pdf on the Creative website (and your pdf software is working...which mine wasn't) but still, I emphasize, it's only scant info. ?
    I at least found the audio setup instructions for use on my PC's Control Panel, but:
    1) ?My standard (Logitech) wireless mouse now works like sh*t (totally unacceptable now, unless I disconnect the Xmod USB)...so what, do I have to go back to a corded mouse now?
    2) ?A number of remote functions don't seem to work right, or at all. ?The FAQ on the online pdf includes this gem:
    Q: ?Why can't I access my media player?s functions with the remote control?
    A: ?With some media players, some functions are not accessible via the XmodWireless remote control.
    Would it have blown your testing budget to have maybe LISTED some of the players that DO and DON'T work right with this deviceOr do I have to figure this out by trial-and-errorI currently prefer "MediaMonkey," but it seems as if a bunch of those remote functions don't work with it. ?Will I ever know what the "menu" button is supposed to do?

    One more thing. I just update my iphone that my boss gave to me but it seems to be like it giving me some trouble. My iphone was updated not too long and was successful. I try to lock into it and it telling me emergency call. I plug it to my itune and it telling me that the sim card is not valid or supported. So I inserted my sim card that I usually use to call and it still saying the same. Please help me get into it.

    And as far as paying for phone support, here are a few tips:
    If you call your carrier first and then they route you to Apple, you usually don't have to pay for phone support.
    If you are talking to Apple and they ask you to pay a support fee, ask if you can get an exception this time.  That usually works once, but they keep track of the times you've been granted such an exception.
    If you still end up paying the support fee, that fee only applies if it's not a hardware related issue.  In other words, if it can be fixed by just talking over the phone and following Apple's instructions, then the fee applies.  But if your device is deemed to have a hardware failure that caused the issue, then the fee should not apply, and you can ask for it to be waived after the fact.
    This forum is free, and almost all of the technical support articles the Apple tech advisors use are available on this website.  Literally 99% of what they can do over the phone is just walking you through the publicly available support articles.  In other words, you're paying the fee to have them do your research for you.  It's like hiring a research consultant to go look stuff up in the public library so you don't have to.  You're capable of doing it; you'd just rather pay someone to do it for you.
    It's like Starbucks.  You know how to make coffee.  Everyone knows how to make coffee.  And Starbucks coffee isn't any better than what you could make at home for far less.  But you want the convenience.  So you're really paying a convenience fee.  Milk is more expensive at 7-Eleven than it is at the grocery store... because it's a convenience store.
