[DIGITAL SCREAMS]

Nutekk is talking about sluggish software EG's on some 80's synths. He's a bit confused....

i dont really care to prove it to you.
do your own research.

relax - i wasn't saying that you have a link, i was asking you for one. it was you saying that the memorymoog has a latency of 12ms ...

i was just curious since the memorymoog (which i never owned) seems to have analog filters and oscillators and therefore i wouldn't be able to understand where the latency would come from. you are certainly right for many synths build in the earlier days of the digital age, especially the D-70 etc.

nah im not confused...
latency is latency...for whatever reason.

(somewhere in this page)
actually it was the memorymoog +
seems it was takin care of in some update...but it was there

there are plenty of others.

even a jv1080 had between a 4.5ms-5 ms latency due to 64note poly design..and thats as you know a rompler.

man you guys had to get me goin....

Cool, thanks for the links.

Always interesting to read about this sort of thing when I'm meant to be working.
