Hi,
The latency is totally due to the GS Wavetable.
For the LoopBe, it's really just a "virtual" cable that connects Composer to a MIDI device. The signal chain looks like:
Composer -> LoopBe -> MIDI Device
So if you don't have a device for LoopBe to connect with, it won't make any difference for you.
To get some nice sounds inexpensively (and without the latency), please
see this step-by-step tutorial video on SynthFont. There are other synths that can work this way as well - I just haven't tested them all
(Maybe other folks have suggestions for this?)
Also, be sure to turn off the GS Wavetable (it interferes with ASIO):
- Settings/MIDI Devices configuration
- Port/Select Ports
- UNcheck the GS Wavetable, and click Ok to save and exit.
ttfn,
Sherry
