Strange delay using Nocturn Keyboard

could be a number of things.. sure it's not audio latency ? and NOT midi issues..  the keyboard is only triggering the sound, nothing else.. and if your soundcard isn't up to scratch (or an onboard) then thats more likely the issue.

otherwise have a look in the midi settings ? you might find the thing also has 2 things e.g. usb and an automap 1, try selecting the one that isn't automap.

you use a sustain pedal ? make sure that isn't inverted.

and the velocity curve + after touch might be an issue.. you can master reset the keyboard also.. instructions are in the manual probably.

I just cant think its just normal latency. Here is how it works:

1:When I create a new instrument track the latecy is fine when i play back just that track
2:When I play back the track with other tracks I got a strangely long latency. talking about 400 ms or more. (the amount of latecy is the same if i use 1 track with a plug in och 10 times the plugins
3: When I stop play back the other tracks and playing only the instrument track the latency dont go away. Its still there.
4: When i leave the application (just clicking on a webbrowser window and then back to Sonar without cuitting ore saving) the latency is gone.

So its just not normal latency. Is there someone who have experienced the same problem? Im sure its just an easy setting i just missed.


Im using Sonar X1, PC with I7 processor, Delta 192-card, Windows 7 64.....

 

Thanks for the help. Unfortunally i have tried all that.

I have narrowed down tre problem a little bit more. There are only some plugins that create the problems.

LP64 plugins and TL62 plugins seems to create this problem even when i freeze a track and the latency problem its still there after switching them off (turn on the problem accurs. Turn off the problem still there.....strange, isnt it).

VX64 and VC64 does not create the problem.along with a lot of others.

Yes, Yes and.... Yes. Checked :-)

but still this absolute madness :-(

It feels like I missed something easy. just a tick in a box but.... Even trippel checked Novations instructions setting for Sonar but the problem is still there...

Been there done that......

There is not problem with audiofiles. Its only a delay in playback of an VST istrument (in this case Z3TA+) from a Nocturn keyboard and its just in some specific cases, as i described.

In those specific cases I specified there is a delay that shouldnt be there. The delay is between playing on the Nocturn and the playback from the instrument. Its just driving me mad... 

Nothing changed. Still having the same problem. Ive even uninstalled automap to see what will happens, but still got the same problem.

Adding just one plugin on a different audiotrack shouldnt greate this gigant leap of latency. Especially when adding tons of other plugins the same way doesnt create a problem at all. There must me some one else noticed this. or?

The keyboard is from Novation.

The issue is not the keyboard and usb. Thats ruled out. Of cause it can be the keyboards driver but i dont think so.

I found the problem :-)

I just have to turn off PDC an then it worked as it should.

It was just as easy fix as I expected. Just a tick in a box that I missed. Similar to forget to turn on a powerswitch :-)

Well im not the only one with this Issue. When i searched this forum there was a couple of similar threads. Hopefully someone else will be helped with this thread.
