Garageband output on BT speaker? Too much latency, but iTunes plays fine

Hi all
I have a Creative D200 that I like to use to play iTunes music in my office.
Today I tought that I would like to play my electric guitar, since I am basically alone and can make as much noise I want (yay).
I am surprised to see thou, that iTunes play music without changing anything, while GarageBand does not .
I have a USB unit that is my interface for Midi, Guitar and other instruments (an Alesis IO2), I use it to record my guitar, or to just play games like Rocksmith, or record riff with Guitar rig. The unit works fine, no latency when I use the headphones connected to the unit.
Anyway; back to GB: I tried to play the guitar, and I can hear the iTunes music playing on the speaker, and the guitar play in my headphones connected to the IO2. I tried to change the output to D200 (the BT speaker), and I get the output, but the lag is so much that is impossible to play honestly.
Tired to look for a function to reduce the latency but there is none on GB.
Now, I understand that BT has too much delay, altho I don't understand why the output of anything on my computer is going trough the speaker with no latency at all (games, iTunes, system sounds), but neither GarageBand nor Guitar Rig are able to play (Guitar rig does not even give me output at all, Garageband give me the high latency). I tought that should not matter where the sound comes from, since everything is wired to the computer; so when the audio has to be sent to the bluetooth speaker, shouldn't matter if is the output of GB, GR or anything else.
Possible that is possible to decode a MP3 on teh fly and play it with 0 latency, while is not possible to output the processed signal of a guitar, in the same way, on a mac pro with 16 GB of ram and 12 core?

Hi Becca_hague,
Thanks for the post.
You will need at least 2MB to effectively run BT Vision.  The real problem here is not your speed, its your connection constantly dropping out.  If we can figure out why your connection is dropping and fix this, then your speed should recover by itself.
Your noise margin is not very high at all which is strange, as one of the main culprits of a dropping connection is noise interference.  The fact you are already in the test socket rules out internal issues.  It may well be that the router you are using is faulty.  On the other hand this may not be the case.
I would like to run a few checks on the network side of things, to see if anything stands out as odd.  Please drop me an email to the email address in my profile. (click on my name and you will find the address under the "about me" section). Include your BT account details and the link to this thread.

  • How much is too much music on itunes?

    im uploading a lot of music onto my itunes, for two different ipods, and i dont know if i put too much music on if there will be a lag or anything
    can someone please tell me how much music a computer can take before significantly slowing down?

    As long as there's at least 1GB of space free on the hard disk at all times and the iTunes library isn't stored on the Finder's desktop, you shouldn't experience a major slowdown regardless of how big the iTunes library gets.

  • Too much latency between multiple motor moves

    I have measured the time between motor moves, and noticed a latency of 10 - 20 ms. If the subsequent motor move does NOT need to change velocity, acceleration, deceleration, etc (in other words, after move 1, a call is made directly for move 2 with the same values), there is a latency of 10^-10 (using the time stamp features). As soon as I add a block between two motor moves which changes the 2nd motor move's accel, decel, vel, etc, It adds 10-20ms in between.
    Is there a way to avoid this long time spent between these moves?

    The example that I mentioned in my first answer should do almost exactly what you request.
    - In the first iteration of the loop the first move is started with the Start Motion.
    - The inner while loop iterates only once in this case as the blend complete flag is set immediately after Start Move.
    - In this state the first move is still running and the target position is loaded for the next move. If you want you can also move load velocity and load acceleration into the while loop to update these values for your move.
    - In the next step Blend Motion is called (the first move is still running)
    - The inner while loop checks if the first move is finished. The subsequent move is started (blended) automatically then without a delay.
    - The vi exits the inner loop and loads the new parameters for the next move while the second move is running and so on.
    Of course it takes some time to download the parameters but as long as your moves take longer than the time needed for the execution of these functions (load velocity, acceleration and target position) you won't get any delay between the moves. If the duration of the moves is actually shorter than this time (you mentioned 4-5 ms) then you should use contouring instead of blending (see examples).
    You can find more information about blending, contouring and other motion control concepts here.

  • SONGS USING TOO MUCH MEMORY IN ITUNES TO TRANSFER TO IPOD-ANY HELP?

    I recently started using iTunes to transfer songs to my iPod and burn CDs. I have approximately 200 songs in my library and the memory usage is just under 8GB!! I can only transfer about 100 songs into my 4GB mini iPod. I changed the settings to attempt to decrease the file size but this did not seem to help, unless I did it incorrectlty.
    Please help, I am feeling like a frustrated idiot.
    Thanks so much.

    When you've got too many songs, you've got too many songs. You can't store 8 gigabytes of music on a 4 gigabyte iPod, it just doesn't work that way. That's like trying to pour two gallons of water in a one-gallon jug.
    You'll just have to decide what music you want on your iPod. iTunes can do it for you by selecting your most listened to or best rated songs, but it's better to make your own playlist and get your iPod to only store that playlist on it by selecting you iPod in iTunes, selecting "music", then "Select Playlists" and then the playlist you made. That way, you can even make multiple playlists and change entirely what music you want in your iPod from time to time.

  • I don't want my music on my iPad as it takes up too much space, but I do want it on my iPhone and iPod touch.  How do it prevent it from going to iPad?

    How do I get my music only on my IPhone and iPod touch, but keep it off my iPad.

    If you're talking about stopping music purchased from the iTunes store automatically downloading to your iPad, go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores and under Automatic Downloads and turn Music to Off.  If your talking about syncing with iTunes, just uncheck Sync Music on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings before syncing your iPad.

  • HT4623 Updating to ios 6 went fine, but suddenly yesterday I lost all speaker capability. Can't use speaker phone, can't hear iTunes playing thru speaker either. What's up? I've done a soft "reboot" and a reset, still no speakers. Thoughts?

    I've got a real love/hate relationship with Apple right now. I love my iphone 5, but I'm hating the bs you have to go thru to get help. Everything was great, fine, wonderful on ios6 till yesterday when suddenly I lost speaker capability. No speaker on calls, no speaker on Siri, no speaker on dialing, no speaker on iTunes. A soft reboot and a reset did nothing to change things.
    A quick peek at other Apple forums shows this is likely a software issue in ios6, so does that mean I just have to wait on Apple to come up with a fix?

    You can back up (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766) and restore (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414) your iPhone in iTunes.
    If it is a software issue, the restore will resolve it.
    If speaker doesn't work after that, it's a hardware issue, and the device needs to be serviced.

  • In PSE9, outputting slideshow to .wmv skews inserted text, but preview is fine.

    In Photoshop Elements 9, I created a slideshow, which included text on the slides.  The preview looks
    exactly how I want it, but when I output to a .wmv file, the text becomes over-sized and spills off the slide
    (so only about two-thirds of it is visible).  How can I get the outputted .wmv file to look exactly like the preview?
    Regards,
    Chris

    I did try re-doing the slideshow from scratch, and changing all the image sizes to match the output video (1024 x 768).  I still got the same problem - until I realized that re-sizing the text window over the slides causes this to happen.  I tried experimenting with the text on 2 identical slides, and each time when I re-sized the text box, the text skewed.  I can still move the text box around without incident.  Any further thoughts on why this happens?

    About a week ago I wrote about problems we encountered during development when
    an xsql page does an insert, insert fires a trigger, trigger calls procedure to process
    data, xsql page does a select from output table to return
    We had 2 problems:
    1) ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [qmxsqLoadNS], [], [], [], [], [], [], [] Current SQL statement for this session:
    2) Output came not beyond a certain limit
    Problem 1 is recognized as bug by Oracle Support in 9.2.0.4, 9.2.05 and 9.2.0.6 Solved in 10.2 Unknown what is fixed
    Bug is described in 3872147 . I'm still trying to convince them to do something about it because in 3 weeks we have go live with this
    software and my alert is full with this ora-0600 Bug is definitely caused by the trigger
    Problem 2 is solved, this was caused by getting output through a xmltype column which in xsql relates to
    a plsql string with size limitation on 64k

  • Firefox uses too much ram

    My FIrefox has been using too much RAM as of late. I have followed all the steps in the firefox support page about checking for possible plugins that may or may not be using too much RAM, but after starting firefox in safe mode, there really wasn't much of a difference. Maybe like 5k kb less, but it's still not enough to account for the 1.7million kb that firefox ends up using with one tab open.
    I like to leave my pc on for a bit, and sometimes I'll leave firefox running with a tab open while I'm using other applications, but even if i restart my firefox, the RAM usage does not decrease. After closing all applications and leaving only firefox running, it appears to be around 1.5million kb. Only if i restart my whole pc does the RAM usage drop back to normal levels, and then it ramps back up after a period of time.
    I would like to get this resolved soon, or at least figure out the cause of this.

  • Too much music?

    Hi.
    I've been trying to import all the music I have stored on my computer to iTunes, but somehow iTunes select only a part of it. Sometimes an error shows too, saying iTunes failed importing/copying :C-disc or something. Could it be that I have too much music for iTunes to handle? I've got all my music in the My Music-folder, and it's grown to about 12GB... A lot, but should that really be a problem?
    I've tried importing files not choosing the 'import folder' but the other option, and I've read in this forum that in the old versions you could import several files in one go that way. I can only import one at a time. iTunes seems screwed up...
    I could really need some help with this, because as it is now, my iPod is empty...

    12 gigs is not too much for iTunes.
    By any chance, if you look in Edit > Preferences > Advanced > General, do you have "Copy files to iTunes Music Folder..." checked? If so, uncheck it and try again. (If you are short of free hard drive space, that option will have trouble operating.)

  • MacBook Pro using too much RAM

    I have  15" MacBook Pro, purchased in February, 2013.  It has 2.6 Ghz Intel i7 processor, 8 GB RAM and a 750 GB hard drive.  The HD is about 25% filled, mostly with photos.  It came with Mountain Lion, I upgraded to Mavericks, then to Yosemite.  I go back and forth between Safari and Chrome for my browser.  (I've heard Chrome uses too much memory, but I've found the opposite to be the case for my computer.)  All upgrades went smoothly, no problems.   I love using it, EXCEPT...
    Over the past year, I've thought it was using too much RAM for very simple activities and it slows to a crawl using Aperture or MS Word.  Even when just web browsing, and nothing else open or running, the computer will use 6 to 7 gigs of available RAM.  Using Aperture is so slow it's no longer fun... I wait and wait for the beach ball to go away and it does, eventually (Won't need to worry about Aperture for too much longer, I guess).  I've been thinking about Lightroom to replace Aperture, but I'm worried that I will have similar problems with a new program.  Any suggested solutions?  Thanks!

    Hey danfrompeoria,
    Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, you are using a lot of memory. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you isolate or resolve the issue.

  • Suddenly using too much data?

    Hi everyone,
    I have had my iphone 5 for over a year. For the first couple of months I had problems with using too much data but eventually learned it was my email causing the issues (it was updating automatically). Fast forward this past Christmas. I got an iPad 2, and ONLY use it at home when it's connected to WiFi. To be completely honest, I am not even 100% sure if it supports cellular data at all, although I don't believe it does as there's nothing mentioned of cell data in Settings. Now for the past 2 months, I have been using too much data and having to pay extra on our cell bill and I have no idea what has changed besides updating the iPad and my phone (I just updated my phone a couple days ago) to iOS 7.0.6. The charges aren't enormous or anything, I think it was around $8 extra last month but still, I don't know what has changed. I have already gotten a text from my provider (Telus - Canadian company) today saying that I am now paying for my data usage, because we (my husband and I combined) have used our data alotment for the month. I know the problem is my phone because I used about double the amount of data as he did on our last bill. I tried calling my provider, but I was on hold for ages so I will give it another go tomorrow if I can't get something figured out in the meantime.
    So my questions are: 1) Could it be the iPad using data? I do have it set so that it backs up to iCloud when plugged in (I believe, my sister in law set it up for me), and it syncs my photos from iphone to the ipad. As you can probably tell, I am just slightly technologically illiterate here. I also did get a new keyboard case for it last month that uses bluetooth.
    2) If it's not the ipad, any ideas of where the data could be going? I use my phone mainly for texts and calls, Facebook, email, some internet browsing, but it is set to WiFi. I mostly use it at home where there is a WiFi connection. Although my young kids do play Angry Birds and watch some videos when we are driving. I don't believe the amount of games they play and videos they watch have changed though, that has been an ongoing thing.
    Thanks for any advice, I would like to nip this in the bud before something gets out of control.

    Update: I got my bill today, and as suspected I have used way more than half of our shared data plan (which is 1GB - I used 1760Mb). I have had my cellular data either completely turned off, OR turned on but not allow any apps to use it (I noticed that I was having some issues with not being able to send/receive texts if my data was compeltely turned off... Not sure why, but that's another post I guess)  since I started this post. I called Telus and she wasn't able to tell me where any of my data was going, she just kept saying "well you've only spend $3.69 in data for last month" and asked me if I was completely closing out apps, which I do every other day or so. She just recommended that I download an app called My Data Manager to set a limit on how much cellular data I am using, however the app doesn't tell me WHERE the data is going which is my concern. So I'm kind of back at square one. I'm not sure if I should allow my kids to play their games and do as I normally do on the phone until the data gets racked up and then I can try to figure out where it's going, or what. My billing cycle started on March 18 and since then I have used 1MB (approx.) of data, but I was in the US for 4 of those days and had the data turned off completely, so again not sure where that 1MB went. One thing I have started doing that is new, is playing downloaded music (music that I have on iTunes, and put onto my phone) in the car. I thought since it is music that I have put onto the phone (not streaming music) it wouldn't be using any data, but on March 19 (the day before we left for the US), I was playing music in the car with my data turned off, and when a song ended and I tried to play another one it said that the cellular data was turned off and I needed to turn it on. I didn't turn it on, but I did put the phone into airplane mode and was able to play my music that way. Could that be using cellular data? If so, then I know where it has been going!
