If you are using an on board sound card you can get workable latencies by installing asioforall wdm wrapper(free) and using asio mode instead of the windows default wmd or wasaipi way which are paltry.
If you get a real sound card someday you should use the manufacturer's asio drivers and not the asioforall wdm wrapper though.

Genius man! I had tried ASIO4all on a previous system with the same soundcard in an attempt to reduce latency on the line in. It didn't work then, so I dismissed it for this case. Based on your advice, I downloaded the latest version, installed, selected it as the output device in UVI workstation, and latency is way reduced...to a tolerable level anyway! Thanks! Now, I'm like a kid in a candy store!

Hmmm, Bass Guitar through the line in, I only tried it once noisy & an impedance mismatch made it sound like I was playing a banjo. At that point I gave up trying use a PC for audio input. The midi delay you speak of has got less than back in the day (when Dave Bronze play a Roland Midi Bass with the Art Of Noise, and had to relearn proper time when the tour ended). Awkward. When I was at Uni one of the courses I chose was 'Studio Technology' we had to do a whole assignment on Midi. Basically the latency has fallen over the years from really noticable to as it stands now, which is not too bad if you keep the signals midi and only convert it when you go for output. Short answer try it, you might find it OK. One ofthe reasons 'they' are cagey about the delay is it is getting less each major revision and 'they' don't want to have to do the documentation every five mins.

Thanks for the reply! ASIO4All drivers fixed the latency problem. (thanks Ron) I was able to play bass through the line-in just fine up to 2009 when I made the jump from Win2K t0 Win7. It probably only worked OK since the bass has active pickups.
BTW, Nice story about Dave Bronze!

There is a driver called virtualmidisynth that may help you.
You configure it with a sound font and can set the latency down to 10 milliseconds.
MIDI used to work great in Windows. Alas, it is now a second class citizen.

I don't need to say anything at all.
Who of you are watching the match? The hype says it all, when India and Pakistan are playing against each other in the field of cricket.

Having OriginalGriff of CodeProject, know the match and the hype it has in IndoPak, is enough to know that there is a lot of hype.
