    How do you decrease latency time when doing computer and keyboard music?

    It's the soundcard, some are less latency than others. I'm running a 2496, it has 11ms latency, my old one Isis was 80ms, much better. But the timing on the drum machines are super instant, you hit the key it's right there...

    MPC 4000 Swing

    swing takes the two and the four notes and move them closer to the one and the three. If you rock 66%, it's like jazz. instead of 1---2---3---4--- it's 1--2----3--4----. The two and four are riding on the one and the three's ass...

    Make sure the MPC is set to Drum on the main screen (not Midi), however select channel 1A next to where it says Drum. make sure the Motif is set up to receive on channel 1. Down the road you can set up one program on the Motif to receive each midi channel (16 different sounds going at once)...

    Hey man, You can filter it so all you hear is low frequencies (bass), hi frequencies (hats) or mid frequencies (vocals). It won't auto split an existing finished song.
