Hello,
Anton Hörnquist a écrit :
with Pd (Win XP) but I'm running into problems. When I move a knob on the midi controller there is a delay of at least one second until the controller data show up in the Pd window (I simply output controllers using the [ctlin] object). This delay makes it pretty much unusable. I
did you try MIDI controllers with another software?
tried different command line arguments to find something that could speed things up and I managed to get quick midi input through the [ctlin] object, if I used -noaudio. But I'd like to use the audio system, so that's not really an option for me. Is MIDI on Win XP Pd really this bad? There is a warning message showing up in the Pd window when using MIDI on windows.
What is this error message?
MIDI on XP is bad indeed, and I have to run my midi application under linux to get a latency lower than human sound perception, without artefacts, and with a cheap soundcard.
If you know a bit about development you might be interested about this:

Anyway, I suggest to have a deep look into your computer configuration, you might have a problem with the system.
A solution would be to convert the MIDI to OSC in some other program and send it to Pd, but of course I prefer to just use the [ctlin] object in Pd, if possible. I also run Pd on Linux but unfortunately my soundcard (M-Audio Firewire 410) has no driver for Linux.
Indeed I use OSCx for a lower latency, but almost all paywares doesn't use this communication protocol. They are almost all stupidly stucked on the old MIDI.
Cheers, Anton
