I recently bought a Yamaha DTXpress IV Special v2 & have been trying to configure it with Superior Drummer 2.0... The app is pretty involved which is just what i need as I want it to be able to trigger all 3 zones on the cymbals plus the multiple variations on the hi-hat... and more if possible???.

Ultimately I want to be able to rehearse & play gigs with the kit connected to SD2.0...

My PC specs are:

Asus P5KPL Motherboard
Intel Core 2 Duo 3.0Ghz
Nvidia GeForce 9800GTX
Creative SB Audigy 2
4GB RAM
XP Pro SP2

The kit is connected to my PC by a MIDI/USB cable only... I have got as far as assigning each pad to the desired piece & responds reasonably well in terms of latency, however when i hit any pad at a steady pace, SD2.0 doesnt respond & i have to wait a second or two before i can hit the pad again to get a response??... it's like it overloads from too much data or something & it can only take hits in slow doses!?... yet i can mouse click on each piece in SD2.0 as fast as I want & responds no problem!?

I've turned all Bleeding settings to minimal...from what i can gather, it's potentially something to do with the ASIO driver....

I have x4 ASIO's that show in 'Audio Devices' within SD2.0... x3 of them are the bundled drivers for my Creative SB Audigy 2 soundcard:

1. Creative ASIO
2. SB Audigy 2 ASIO 24/96 [EC00]
3. SB Audigy 2 ASIO [EC00]

the 4th one is the generic ASIO4ALL v2 driver which i downloaded as the above 3 all give the 'Failed to load audio driver' message.

Ive played with the system tray settings of the ASIO4ALL driver, increasing buffer size etc but still no progress...

Any specific suggestions are greatly appreciated!!!

For some reason Alchemy is not showing up at all in Logic. The other two are.

I've sent a query to Camel Audio but have heard nothing back yet.

Anyone know what the problem could be? ]]> Music Software sphelan http://forums.dv247.com/music-software/4609-alchemy-where-you.html Latin Percussion ??????????????? http://forums.dv247.com/music-software/4583-latin-percussion.html Sat, 07 Nov 2009 13:41:13 GMT [COLOR="DarkOrchid"]:) Does anyone know of any good software for playing Latin Percussion on ?

Im looking to start learning to play keyboards. I did play 20 years ago and lost interests but want to start again. I have been given a Technics keyboard with midi and it has some good sounds but I would really like to attach this up to my PC and to be able to get the sounds of my favorite 80's synths. PRO 1 / Prophet 5 / juno 60 and many of the other early synths of this period. I have found a lot of soft synths but all these seem to be VST's. Can anyone point me in the direction of information on how I can achive my dream ? Free options if possible although I can pay a little if needed. I have a midi to USB lead so conecting the keyboard / PC is not a problem.

Thanks Alan ]]> Music Software swaps http://forums.dv247.com/music-software/4530-help-please-soft-synths.html GForce VSM http://forums.dv247.com/music-software/4512-gforce-vsm.html Fri, 23 Oct 2009 10:08:12 GMT Does anyone know if GForce Virtual String Machine works with 64 Bit versions of Windows?
