Hi Gary,
Is it only me or is there a genuine delay when using PCI Cards with Midi?
Is it possible to improve matters by connecting the PCI Card to my Keyboard via a Midi interface?
I have not done that for fear of damaging the PCI card circuits.
The delay is annoying.
Using USB has its downsides in that the midi stream goes to the Sequencer first then to scope adding delays.
Also there are possibilities of feedback loops doing it that way.
Regards
Ike

Hi,
I don't get any delay even when going through Sonar. I am using PCI cards...

Re: PCI Cards and Midi Delay
midi going directly into the card from a controller should have just about zero delay inside Scope. going from Scope to a windows app will have whatever delay the audio driver has, just like USB.
Re: PCI Cards and Midi Delay
On what midi event do you have some delay ? Midi note or controler ?
What sequencer are you using ?
It's important because you can get some delay or timing issue with controlers mapped to Scope : one can hear the midi controler not exactly moving what it should move on the right time. I'm using Cubase and when I midi remote a fader mixer, for example, I get some delay on it. I really hope it'll be better with Scope 6. As the delay happens when Cubase just plays midi tracks, there may have some delay if your midi keyboard plays thru the sequencer but only (here, on my system) with midi controlers.
I never noticed any delay on midi notes. Fortunately !!
