no idea - all the samples are the sounds included in Ableton Live. i think i have the basic edition so it's pretty limited. i'll check when i get a chance

i'll check to make sure im using asio drivers, the keyboards i have are direct to usb

if you've dicked about with those settings and it still sucks, the next things i would check would depend on what you're trying to control with the keyboard. if it's samples, your disk may be too slow or you may have too little RAM. if synth, it could be processor power or RAM most likely candidate is just crap setup in DAW/soundcard or a crap USB interface though, don't go upgrading your compy until you exhaust the options there.

okay yeah then asio4all and tweaking buffers will probably do it for you

that being said, the experience of hooking up one's first real deal no bullshit pro audio interface and slamming the latency sliders all the way down and it still works is p amazing when i had that echo layla it would do like 0.8 mS latency with no skipping at 44k

828mkii is still the heart of my studio w/ thunderbolt->fw800->fw400 so happy yospos has its own bleep bloop thread i got my first big-boy studio monitor system so i can produce out of the bedroom, otherwise i've always done it live with an 18" 1000w sub and two 15" 625w PAs, for the late night stuff I need it a little more refined for the younger crowd lately i've been on a learning synthesis trip, i have a bass station ii and just got a discount littleBits synth kit and i'm impressed. i have a video of me spazzing out about it for a friend, i'll make a better one with acid filter sweeps a little later today. software-wise i'm not feeling tied to any particular synth, i'm obssessive when it comes to plugins and have most if not all of them (super bummed about alchemy being done tho ) serum is waiting for me for when i get into wavetable, fm8 has been really fun (are there any other great fm softsynths?) d16's gear is dope biggest hurdle has been programming macro controls for all the software i use. at home i work out of ableton (though have wanted to get renoise for over a year to mess with) and keep my live setup to what i can put up on a two-tier stand, so an analog bass synth, push for sequencing, apc40 for clips and sends, and a padkontrol for effects and x-y. sitting down at the end of each day still takes a lot out of me, but i keep plugging and will see where it takes me. https://soundcloud.com/nickprince/amen-bass-synth-sequence

the overhead and setup and system tie-in is the real bitch. anybody can run ableton or a shitload of this and that. it takes real planning, testing, and organization to get your macros and midi Y's and virtual audio cables and this and that set up. and its an even bigger challenge to make that setup reproducible and stable live shows are murphy's law land. everything always breaks and fucks up I'm writing a snippet/track a day, i have really bad phones/monitors right now though so its all mixed dumb. just remembering my renoise keyz http://yourlisten.com/jonny290/thwang bad http://yourlisten.com/jonny290/derrrr less bad i know its all stock patches more or less (well first track is sequenced drums) but hey i am saving new files and thats all that matters

my generalized goal for this year is to crank out somewhere between 2 and 8 tracks that im happy with and maybe play a couple shows later in the fall to promote

most unexpected synth-culture thing i learned this year “Devo’s cynicism was born of having once cared too much. Unlike Ubu, Devo had been hippies, of a sort. Gerald V. Casale and Mark Mothersbaugh, the group’s conceptual core, were among the antiwar students protesting at Ohio’s Kent State University that fateful May morning in 1970 when the National Guard opened fire. Two of the four slaughtered students—Allison Krause and Jeffrey Miller—were friends of Casale’s. “They were just really smart liberal kids, eighteen and nineteen, doing what we all did back then,” he says. “They weren’t crazy sociopaths.” He recalls the dazed, slow-motion sensation when the guns started firing, “like being in a car accident,” the blood streaming down “the sidewalk, the eerie sound of moaning from the crowd, “like a kennel of hurt puppies.” At first, “even the National Guard was frozen, freaked out. Then they marched us off campus and the university was shut down for three months.” May 4, 1970, is one of several contenders for the day the sixties died. “For me it was the turning point,” says Casale bitterly. “Suddenly I saw it all clearly: All these kids with their idealism, it was very naïve.” Participants in SDS (Students for a Democratic Society) such as Casale reached a crossroads. “After Kent, it seemed like you could either join a guerrilla group like the Weather Underground, actually try assassinating some of these evil people—the way they had murdered anybody in the sixties who’d tried to make a difference—or you could just make some kind of wacked-out creative Dada art response. Which is what Devo did.” Devo was born in the three months Kent was closed down.” Excerpt From: Reynolds, Simon. “Rip It Up and Start Again."
