MIDI to Audio Timing

[nonie]

Been having some problems with this, not sure if its the latency or my hard drive not having enough space or whatever, but for some reason with my drums I created in FL using my Motif (MIDI) don't line up together correctly timewise when I convert them to audio in Sonar with the kick, snare, and hi-hats having their seperate tracks. But when I convert my kick, snare, and hi-hats together in one audio track, the timing is correct, but I can't add certain effects to only the kick, snare, hi-hat with my drums in just one track. Help would be appriciated.

Questions directed to Fade or anyone else that uses Sonar.

yes, you've got a shitty 2ms latency.

Shit aint even Sonar related, it's soundcards and midi issue. Get a card like a Emu 404 or up and you'll have no latency of whatsoever.

LOL. I got better than 0404. I have 1212m. LOL.

Anybody know how to fix this?

Shit man, this is about preferences, if you know the abilities of your gear you'll have the proper perspective on your setup.

Read manual and hit F1 in your s/w platforms and read... get aquinted with midi and sync. Shit is all pretty straightforward but you need to read n just play.

Alright, but do you think you know the source of the problem? I just need to know that.

nope, could be anything, that`s why you need to read the manual...
