Final update for anyone searching the archive:

Screen-capture was causing the delay.

I was revisiting this older patch and realized that I was attempting to capture the gemwin output with my old computer. That caused the video rendering to be later than the audio. Specifically, I was using a [gemhead] to bang [pix_snap] at full resolution.

My solution was to stop using an external MIDI sequencer, instead using [seq], and then transferring the files to a more powerful Windows 10 computer that has built-in X-box screen capture with Win-G.

In the end there was still latency (about 1600ms) that might be my fault between creating the audio and MIDI files. So, I just put a little delay on the audio.

Update:

It seems to happen when Gem ver: 0.93.3 is activated. DSP is not turned on. Maybe, I'm just asking too much of my MacBook Pro from 2009?

Dear list,

I'm experiencing a long delay between sending MIDI from Logic Pro X to Pd
through the IAC driver. It's possibly 5 seconds or more. I see the playback
head go past the notes and then I sit and wait to see the numbers appear in
the same rhythm some time afterwards.

Has anyone encountered this and found a solution?

Logic Pro X 10.3.1
OS 10.11.6
Pd-0.47-1

Thanks,
Sam
