Some basic Cubase midi help please...

Ive got cubase 4 and a Edirol FA-66 soundcard with the midi in/out on the FA-66 plugged into a Virus b. The output from the Virus is going directly into the 'line in' on the FA-66 and im using cubase to monitor the input. My problem is that there is slight delay from what I hear monitored and what is actualy being played on my other channels in cubase. Is this a latency issue with the processing of the incoming data in cubase or is it something completely different? Will I need to buy a mixer and have line in from the virus go though that instead?

Any help would be much appreciated. Peace.

this must be a latency issue. what latency is set at your sound card control panel (in ms or buffer size)?

Ive tried all the settings from small to large and they dont make a difference. When I say a slight delay I mean around a 64th of a beat, but its very annoying as it sounds like an off mix.

Monitoring through Cubase will always introduce latency; the sound has to go into the software and back out again for you to hear it so you'll have twice the normal soundcard latency to deal with, in addition to that introduced by any plugins on the Virus' channel. Does the FA-66 have a zero-latency monitoring mode?           Mastering - http://mastering.OOOD.net :: www.is.gd/mastering
