Hi list,
I've been trying to configure an Edirol UA-101 in WinXp to use it with Pd (0.38.4-extended-RC8), and although the sound is pretty neat, the latency is about 70ms (!!!) ...
I wish I could use a hammerfall, but I'm afraid I can't, I have read some posts of other edirol cards, with similar problems but they were a little out date and I was wondering if anyone out there have been successfully configured it in Windows.
Thanks in advance!

That UA is an usb-interface?
Well, with linux and (some little) tweaking I can us my usb-interface with ~16ms latency. With Windows (I only tried ASIO's automatic) I only get latencies worse than 500ms...
There are some problems with certain usb-chips that need more tweaking and customised drivers. So it might be that you can't get any better on Win...
Have a nice day,

no, i think it's a firewire... i remember using it once and there were some tweaking issues about it. i'm pretty sure i finally made it, though.
julian:
are you sure that your audiocard latency settings are set to short latency ? something like 128 samples ? you might need to use another program that can access the buffer settings of your soundcard to do this. also you have to reset the soundcard after that (power off / power on)
and i think you have to tell PD as well to set the latency down. best with a startup script (but you can change this from the "Media/Audio Settings..." menu as well).
for ASIO stuff i use:
-asio -audiodev 1 -inchannels 2 -outchannels 4 -audiobuf 12
try to set -audiobuf as low as you can without stuttering audio.
good luck

According to thomann the UA is an usb-interface and the FA's are the Firewires...
But the UA-101 is USB 2.0 and in usb2 there is now usb-audio-standard, only some self-developed things. So there might be a source for trouble.
