Hi,

The latency on the piano sound is silly. I have a ********* UMC404HD with the latest drivers. The buffer is set to 64, sample rate is 44.1. Usually the first couple of notes have bad latency then that seems to clear up, but if I play a Cmaj7 and play the C first then the other three notes the latency is about 1/4 of a second, or in other words, unusable. I have a ryzen 5 3600 6 core with 32 GB ram. I've had two other computers with the same problem and I've always gotten around it by using a third party vst. Right now I'm using the UVI keysuite with no problems. I also have no problems with Reaper or Ableton Live. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

looks live you've got the dropout protection on (and it's on by default), but forgot to turn on the 'green z' in the mixer (off by default).

on your master bus, click the 'z' below until it becomes green. repeat for all other cue mixes if any.) then record-arm the needed track and you should be good to go.
