some doubts about TI, usb, etc...

[Origami]

Well I'll explain my worries and doubts about the TI's Total Integration features.

I bought an Indigo some months ago and I love it, but after 2 years only working with vst synths and never having played a hardware synth before, all the issues regarding audio recording and patch management etc are a bit uncomfortable to me.

Now TI seems to be exactly what I need, a hardware synth that acts as a vst, so my intention is to sell my Indigo and buy a TI in a year or so.

BUT now come my doubts, maybe you TI users may solve them. But please forgive my ignorance.

You connect the TI via USB and that way you obtain 2 stereo outputs, right?

what about latency? is it high? I've read someqhere that USB1 doesn't work properly with audio and that latency is too high. is it right with the TI? please info is highly welcome.

now, PDC. My current host sequencer does not have PDC. Does it mean I'll have problems when recording my TI?

and a 3rd question: those tracks I may compose using the USB outputs, do they need to be rendered to wav before rendering the whole song? or do they act as any other vst track?

thanks for your patience.
