Addictive Drums Sound/Trigger Delay Issue, How do I Fix the problem?

So When I try playing my E Kit I am receiving less than a half second delay, making it impossible to play with addictive drums. Does anyone know how to solve this? I am sure its a plug in issue through the software. what exactly do I need to do?

The best solution is to use the sounds created by the eKit brain rather than monitoring through the DAW. If you must monitor using AD2 make sure there are no latency inducing plug-ins anywhere in the project (shortcut E will disable all plug-ins) and have your audio interface buffers set as low as possible.

How do I Use My E Kit Direct??? without using any VST's. when I use a normal Midi Track it doesn't show any signal or reception when I assign a midi track. I am using midi cables, using a Focusrite Interface 2i4. I Honestly think it would be better to use my Alesis Module than AD so I agree with you. I would still like to use the VST for experimental purposes. I went to Preferences to Midi and set the buffering to lowest.  Im still having same problem. I'll probably call tech support on this one.
if you have any clue on how to Record Midi Direct from my Module let me know. Thanks! :D

Set midi track input to the 2i4 midi port and Arm the midi track for record.  Run the 2i4 in asio mode and set the latency as low as it will go.  Use the asio control panel.  I set my 6i6 to get a 1ms latency.  Note this is with not much running in the project.  With a loaded project I need to increase the latency and use the drum module for feedback when tracking.  Hope this helps.

And one other thing, When I use my UX2 POD Farm interface it tweaks with the midi track of the drums where it sounds out of place. so its a bummer to not be able to play along to it while using a different interface
