Hey hey,

I'm trying to use a Korg nanoKontrol2 as a controller for PD. The buttons and faders work just fine, but the knobs only throw few and (always the same) strange values out of ctlin's first outlet: 2 and 63 if turned clockwise, 66 and 127 if turned counterclockwise, sometimes i also get a 4 or 68.
I use PDextended with WinXP.

Is someone familiar with this problem?

Thanks! Best,
m

hey hey!

probably my problems with pd's audio latency are easy to explain and eliminate, but by now i didn't make it by myself.

basically i am trying to create a looping-module for some simple live overdubbing. i already supposed that i have to factor in the latency for precise timing, but the presetted 50ms doesn't bring correct results. so i measured the latency with this latency.pd patch, using jack to create the feedback, it shows me a latency of about 24.6ms. is this latency constant? and what does the 50ms-preset mean?

and by the way, what are the first steps to optimize (minimize) the latency?

i am using ubuntu studio, pd-extended and right now the built-in sound card of my ibm think pad t41.

thank you!

Try sticking some subpatchs in your patch this should reduce the latency

that doesn't change anything and also doesn't help me understanding this latency thing
