Hi there -
What kind of latency should I expect out of a windows2000 machine running PD? I measured an impulse going through my laptop running PD, with the following patch:
adc~ -> dac~
and it took about 224msec. When speaking into the microphone, this "echo" is really noticeable. My laptop is a Thinkpad pentium750, 256MB, with the built- in soundcard.. Is there any way to cut this latency way down? I'd like to get it down to no more than 20msec. Or do I need a faster machine? Or Linux?
thanks, David Merrill
