Cubase SX, Reason 2 & ReWire

[Ash]

I'm still learning when it comes to sequencers. Maybe someone here can help me with my problem.

This is how I have things set up:

(Indigo 2)   <-- Midi -->  (Cubase Sx)  <-- ReWire ---  (Reason 2)
(        )   -- Audio -->  (         )                  (        )

I have cubase playing my midi, and reason 2 for a drum track (just one audio channel rewired into cubase).

My problem is that the audio from reason is completely out of sync with the audio from my synth.

Is there some setting i'm missing to account for latency?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What computer are you using + the specs on it.. you need a pretty powerful computer to run that setup.

I had major problems with latency between Cubase SX + Reason 2.5 + Ensoniq EPS

Uhmm.. the specs on my computer shouldn't be a problem:
2.8Ghz P4 at 3Ghz, 1Gb ram, Audigy2 Platinum Ex.. the cpu usage is rarely above 5%.

I know theres an inherent latency when playing midi and getting the audio back, but shouldnt Rewire attempt to account for this, or else whats the point? I may as well just sample the output from reason and not bother with it altogether maybe?

Ok I'm an idiot and just solved my own problem I think. I changed the latency setting for my ASIO drivers (under device setup > vst multitrack > control panel) from 50ms to 10ms.. and now it seems to work

thanks for reading anyway!
