Hello,
I'm not sure what I am trying to do makes any sense.
I have an old M-Audio Oxygen 49 keyboard. Yes, it's the silver/grey model. I am hoping to use the MIDI connection; MIDI out from Oxygen 49 to MIDI in to Clarett 2Pre. In addition, I am using Mac + Logic X, Ableton Live and Sibelius 7.
My primary objective is to get rid of the latency and also to achieve real-time recording while monitoring. It's not really bad, but it can be when I am trying to play "complex" stuff in "complex" rhythm.
I heard you can achieve that by lowering the sample rate(?) when recording and then put it back up when listening/mixing. I guess I do understand why, but I was wondering if I can do low-latency recording while using higher sample rate? It would be so cool to get near 0 latency while using Sibelius and Oxygen 49. I just do not have any patience editing the piano score.
Also, what about a keyboard like AKAI LPK 25? It's an okay keyboard, but do people just use this type of keyboard when they are in a hurry? What can I do about a keyboard with just USB connection? How can I get rid of the latency?
Finally, I have a question about connectivity. Do I just have to buy one MIDI cable to connect the Oxygen 49 (MIDI out to in) into Clarett 2Pre (MIDI in to out)?
I highly welcome any suggestions, even about selecting a different audio interface.
Thank you in advance.
Regards,
-JJ
