X-Fi, ASIO and Latency... need he
I still cannot figure out how to lower the latency in ASIO mode on the X-Fi ExtremeMusic card. According to Creative, latency can be as low as ms, but when I use my X-Fi card with Sonar 6 in ASIO mode, the lowest the latency slider will go is 50ms, which is awful.
Maybe I'm being stupid about this, but if anyone can please let me know the detailed steps to lower the latency, I would greatly appreciate it. Please note that I am using Vista, in case that makes any difference. Thanks!?
Are you using nati've ASIO drivers? Try by setting the driver latency to less than 0 ms (2-7ms should be low enough). AFAIK, ASIO is supported fully only in AudioCreation mode.
Maybe re-installation of Creative software helps for freezing issues ("have you intalled" or "do you need to install" all Creative bundled software to get all features/settings in audiocreation mode fully accessible?).

CS5.5 with Behringer mixer/ASIO and latency...
I have AA 5.5 and a Behringer usb mixer. I recently installed the Behringer "highspeed ASIO sudio mixer" software. which now allows me to select my "system performance" with corresponding latency (normal, rapid, highspeed, etc). But I'm finding that my latency can only go as low as 16ms... Thing is, my cpu is a Intel i7 3.4 GHz with 12 GB of RAM. Am I crazy to think that I should be able to get down to at least "rapid (7)? But preferably "highspeed (5).
Bob thanks for the insight!
Alas, you've touched on some topics I don't know much about ("round trip" and "effects send" for monitoring... so I guess I have some research to do . I know my mixer is of the Lower-End types in terms of offering many options, but I've had such great luck in the past from other boards (like my old Alesis) that I thought for certain this could handle the workload.
Do you mean that I should just use the mixer (Behringer xenyx 802USB) for monitoring instead of using the software and cpu to monitor?
Thanks again and Happy Holidays.

i have mainstage 3 installed and works 1oo% when connected to the battery, but when connecting to the mains for charging the program crashes. sounds do not obey. is one, even very bad horrible latency.
and I need to work on music not only in time but the battery after that.
I ask for help pleaseThanks for the swift reply, I have been looking online and a loose plug seems to be somewhat of an issue with many, I hope mine is actually a problem and not what others are experiencing. It's taken me this long to even reach out for the simple fact I HATE being a complainer but this is just horrible.
Do you have an iPad 3 as well? And is yours not experiencing any issues close to mine?
Thanks again! -
BT turning speed down and latency up ??
BT turning speed down and latency up ??
Hi All & Happy new year
Wanted to see if anyone else has seen the same issues as I have.
Right 4 ISP's in the last 18 mths.
1. Zen internet - perfect but expensive, 7mb down speed.
2. Newcall (resold Tiscali ie TalkTalk) awful, ever degrading service, speed, latency and "locking/freezing" where had to reboot router to reinitialise connection to exchange.
3. Idnet - perfect, 7mb again, issues disappeared the moment I switched.
4. BT - same as TalkTalk - same old nightmare, and BT are not helping, denying any issues. (speed down to 3mb, latency v. high, rebooting router 3 to 5 times a day).
In the above sequence nothing changed in terms of hardware or line. Did testing with faceplate off - 3 different routers - all same results.
Changed to BT to save money, but it's been a bad move.
I can only conclude that TalkTalk and BT actually restrict access and speed. If a third party can deliver superior service on all BT kit something is seriously off - it does not seem likely to be accidental.
Any thoughts guys ?
(Currently trying to get contract canceled as service not fit for purpose, (click and wait 2 mins, or click and nothing happens, reboot router and it's ok again for a little while, but speed way down).
How do I get out of the contract and get back to a competent ISP ?
Any thoughts or contacts gratefully received.
(Apologies if broke any rules - first post).Sorry to hear that your having issues with your BT Retail services.
You will either be on the ADSLMax (upto 8mbps) service or if your exchange has been BTw 21cn upgraded you maybe on the ADSL2/2+ (upto 12/20mbps) service depending on your line quality and length.
However these upto speeds may not be the speeds you will get as ADSL broadband connections are very dependent on the distance from your property to the exchange and the quality of your line. The further away you are from your local exchange the slower your broadband speed will be.
To enable the community to help you please see the advice below:
Please see Keith's help guide here: Helping forum members to help you, it will go through some checks that are needed for us to help you.
A summary of the checks are:
1a) Is your router/Homehub connected by a BT NTE5 master socket, Adsl Filtered Master Socket or Extension Socket? Please bear in mind that extension cables and extension sockets can reduce the broadband's performance. If you have an Old LJU master socket then please say.
1b) Have you tried the Test Socket? - if you have one. - Bear in mind that lots of manual distconnections/turning off the router/HomeHub will cause you more issues as the DLM will either reduce your sync rate, increase your noise margin or put you into a banded profile.
2) Can you please run a BT speed test (including IP Profile) http://speedtest.btwholesale.com (not beta version)[Best done with a wired, Ethernet, connection] After Quick Test is done you need to click "Further Diagnostics" to get IP Profile.
3) is there any noise on your line. dial 17070 option2 ,called quite line test, from landline phone. should be silent but slight hum normal on cordless phone.
4) please post adsl line statistics
ADSL Line Statistic Help:
If you have a BT Home Hub like the one below...
Then:
1) Go to http://192.168.1.254 or http://bthomehub.home
2) click Settings
3) Click Advanced Settings
4) Click Broadband
5) Click Connection or sometimes called ADSL (see picture Below)
The direct Address is http://bthomehub.home/index.cgi?active_page=9116 (for bthomehub3.A firmware ending in 1.3)
or http://bthomehub.home/index.cgi?active_page=9118 (for bthomehub3.A firmware ending in 94.1.11)
You will need to copy and past all the adsl line statistics ( Including HEC, CRC and FEC errors). You may need to click " More Details"
If you have a HomeHub 4 then the majority of the ADSL Stats shown in the previous Hubs will not be there.
for HH4 users you can go to hub manager then select troubleshooting then logs and are look for 2 entries together which will show theconnection speed and noise margin for when your HH4 last sycned with the exchange.
There are more useful links on Keith's website here: If you have an ADSL connection, please select this link
Don't have a BT Homehub/Voyager?
• http://192.168.0.1 for a netgear router and look for ADSL adsl statistics with information like noise margin and line attenuation, connection speed
• http://192.168.2.1 for a belkin router and look for ADSL adsl statistics with information like noise margin and line attenuation, Data Rate
I'm no expert, so please correct me if I'm wrong -
ASIO Low Latency Driver sound output is bad?
My Notebook comes with "build-in" asio drivers called "Generic Low Latency ASIO Driver". Further there is ASIO DirectX FullDuplex Driver and ASIO Multimedia Driver.
Sound card is: IDT High Definition Audio CODEC.
Running Win7 x64 (HP ProBook 6550b).
All drivers are the most recent ones.
Problem: 'Generic Low Latency ASIO Driver' sound output is much worse than using the other ones (there the sound is really great in both of them, but they have way to much latencies, so I cannot use them in cubase or any other music daw).
So I'd like to use the (standard build-in) Generic Low Latency ASIO Driver. But the sound is much worse in contrast to the other drivers! It sounds a bit like a phaser or gramophone.
Just to clarify: there are no glitches or stuttering in any case. Just the sound-"quality" is that messed up...
I'm getting really upset about this. Tried the recent version of the ASIO4All 2.10 driver, but the problem remains! The sound with asio4all is exactly as bad as with the buildin Asio Low Latency Driver.
How on earth can I achieve low latency with good sound in Cubase? Has anyobne experienced things like this before, or might there be any fix for this?Well, it's just the standard driver that comes with my notebook, named HP ProBook 6550b.
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=32...
I did not take control over the buildin audio driver installation, because win7 installs these drivers innately.
The problem does not only occure in Cubase, but in any music tool/program/player where I set the driver to low latency (which obv does not make sense in others than cubase, but for testing I found out that it is not an application related problem).
It is really strange. The soundcard seems to provide real asio, but the low latency sounds as bad as the "pretending" asio4all. hm... -
WRT320N Long ping and latency times
I have scoured the board here and still can not seem to resolve my problem. I have Cox as my ISP. My set-up is as follows. Motorola cable modem>WRT320N>Trendnet 8 port Gigabit switch. The switch leads out to 3 computers and an ioBox (Network Media Tank). The computers are running Win7, WinXP and Windows Home Server, all with gigabit nic's. When I connect a single computer from either the switch or directly from the cable modem, I have blazing speeds and my ping and latency times are awesome (75ms avg) and my jitter times are around 2ms. As soon as I connect the remaining computers (either all at once or one at a time), my times plumet. Now I am pinging at 500ms and my jitter is around 43ms.
I have tried many things, reinstalled firmware, reboot and a reset, changed out the switch, connect only one computer to switch and the rest from router. I am at a loss now. It seems like after I reboot a computer, my speeds are ok for about 5-10mins and then back to slow again. This does not happen everytime though after a reboot.
The wireless is used by the kids to connect their iTouch and laptop. It is encrypted with WPA2. Speed on the wifi laptop are slow too.
I have had the cable company out here and everything is ok from box to house to router. Any help would be great!!Great suggestion, I tried that one yesterday too.
As I have been doing more "investigating", is seems like after all my computers are connected via modem>router>switch, all of them have excellent ping times and low jitter, then after about 5-10mins, everything just goes to crap again.
I did do some reading on there being too many people in my neighborhood being on the same channel (no more than 250 people on a download channel) and suggested I change the channel. I went into my modem page and it does not give me the option to change it.
OR, could it be that my signal just weakens after I have all my computers hooked up? I am not sure on the specifics of how that really works, would my cable company just need to increase my signal?
Again, thanks for all your help and suggestions!!! -
what do i do if my internet is wep and i need it to be wpa2 because my ipod touch 4th gen connects to the internet but when i click on safari or itunes it says safari cannot open the page because its not connected to the internet. i have contacted apple support and they said to change from wep to wpa2 but when i change it to wpa2 and type in password and connect on my laptop it says the saved setting on this computer for the network do not match the require ments of the network
My 2nd gen works fine with WPA2 and AES encryption.
You may need to go back and start over. Reset the router back to factory defaults, log on as the admin, set up security, DHCP, and make sure the IP address pool has enough IP addresses to lease to ALL of the computers/devices that will connect to that the router. -

I have a 3g iPhone and I need to know how to delete old photos. Need to free up space and there is no clear way to delete these photos!! Can someone please let me know how to get rid of these pictures!!!! Help!!!
There are a number of ways to delete pictures from the Camera Roll. One is to open Camera Roll in the thumbnail view, tap the arrow button (top right), tap all the pictures you want to delete, tap the Delete button ant the bottom. Photo Library pictures are deleted by unchecking Sync Photos on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings, followed by syncing your phone.

I have a macbook pro, and am trying to update my software. I recently bought an iphone 5, and my software is to out of date to sync my phone with itunes. I currently am running 10.5.8 and I need to update to atleast 10.6.8. Just wondering if I need to purchase it from apple or if there is an easy/free way to update it.
you need to purchase it: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard. It is only on a disk, not in download form.

I have a 2005 Jaguar xj8. When I tried to upgrade my 3gs to a 4g two years ago, I got a ticking noise in the speaker and no one on the other end could hear me. I had to go back to a 3gs. My phone is shot and I need to upgrade. Has there been a fix to the problem? Apple told me there was some sort of interference with the airbag system. Jaguar was totally unhelpful.

My iphone has failed and I need to access my contacts.
My iPhone has failed (again) and I need to access my contacts. I backup/sync to ITunes regularly, but I can't find any means to access the data that I have backed up.
Any thoughts?
B.The iphone is designed to be synced woth your computer regularly. Your contacts should reside on your computer. The iphone simply allows them to be portable.
Your contacts will be in whatever program you have been syncing.
The backup is only for restoring an iphone. Contacts are backed up to keep the recents and favorites when you restore your iphone. -

If I back up my iphone and then need to gather the info from the docs, how do I get the data without another iphone? Can I download the iphone info to an ipad to read it or will it affect my ipad?
You can back up your device, either to iCloud or to your computer using iTunes, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766. If you need to know what version of iOS you are using, go to Settings>General>About and read the number across from Version.

I'm trying to find out how to export my apple contacts to the Salesforce software and they need to be in a csv format and I don't know if this is possible and how to do it if it is?
I think there are third-party programs which will do that, but you can also do it with Automator:
See the links in my post, here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/22390873#22390873
The file or clipboard contents will be in Tab Separated vars, so you'll have to open with a spreadsheet program and save as Comma Separated Vars format.
