I got the omni a few months ago and it works great.
Here is the problem, I got a laptop and I used it with a USB midi controller(also support midi port), the latency was terrible. Will the latency lower if I got a USB audio interface that supports ASIO 2.0, even though the midi controller is connected through its own USB port? Or should I get a USB midi interface and hook the midi controller up through the midi port instead of using the USB? The second solutions doesn't seem like its going to help since its all still going through the USB, unless the chip inside or something is better somehow.
Ok say the first solution does help. Should I sell my omni to get a USB sudio interface(cant get firewire because laptop does not have it.)
My idea is to sell it because I don't think there is really a big difference if I got a USB one for around the same price. I mean, how much better is the omni compared to some of the USB ones around the same price range($400)?
My goal is so that I can have one unit that I can use iwth both my laptop and desktop.
Please give me your opinions or suggestions! Thanks.
