Soundtower Tetra PlugSE V1.1 6
MIDI
Although the main function of the MIDI button was covered above in the MIDI Conguration section, there
are more features that can be adjusted in the MIDI Conguration panel.
When enabled, the ClockON/OFF button synchronizes the EDITOR with the host MIDI clock.
LATENCY and DELAY
Many hosts send MIDI data to Plugin Instruments ahead of time in
order for plugins to prepare the Audio to play. In order to make up for
a time difference in such cases, you can adjust the delay time needed
to compensate for sample rates and buffer sizes that normally plugins
would need to process the operations on the audio stream. Since
the PlugSE™ does not do any audio processing and instead it passes
notes and other MIDI data directly to the synthesizer, depending on
the host you may need to adjust delay settings. This delay can be
adjusted by adjustment controls located in the MIDI Setup panel.
If you are using Logic Pro, make sure that the Buffer
Size matches the setting found in Logic’s Preferences
as shown on the left. Preferred settings are:
I/O Buffer Size: 256 Samples,
Process Buffer Range: MEDIUM.
For other host applications, if you experience issues with sync,
you can adjust the delay using a slider (as shown on the right) to
eliminate it.
