Midi connections comparison

  • DIN 5-pin classic MIDI:
    • A latency/jitter of minimum 1ms (time to process a 3 byte midi message)
    • Jitter acceptable
  • Usb:
    • More throughput
    • Usually higher jitter
  • Ethernet / IP
    • better ?

Possibilities:

Midi jitter

  • Around 10ms at SR 44100
  • Around 5ms at SR 88200
  • High SR + low buffer size = 2 ms !

Solution

  • High SR
  • Low buffer size

Should I use a midi interface ? Possibilities are

  • Roland UM-One MkII : cable usb to 2 * midi : peut permetttre de réduire le jitter de l’ordi au synth par rapport a un cable usb normal
  • Use a high end audio soundcard using pll (focusrite jetpll)
