I have now sorted the issue with volume and routing the sounds back through TD 50 using Midi USB…. The problem was I’d plugged in to a USB 3 port which isn’t supported by TD 50 drivers, simple fix once I’d figured out my mistake…. Next problem is obvious latency so much so, that I can audibly hear the thump of the kick on the pad before the resultant SD3 generated sound in the phones. It’s not just a bit of latency, it’s a lot….. I’ve tried using in 16 bit and cached modes to no avail. I bought a laptop I thought up to the job, which is solely used for SD3 ie not full of other rubbish slowing it down.

Any advice VERY gratefully received!! I’m hoping it’s another school-boy error…. as you can tell I’m not terribly experienced with this kind of set up!
Thanks
Hi,
how big is your Buffer Size in Settings>Audio/MIDI Setup?

Hi John,
It’s set to 256, it won’t let me lower it, if I lower it to 128 or 64 and hit ‘apply’, it resets to 441. I can increase to 2048 and believe it or not, it has no effect on latency which tells you how bad it is in the first place.
Appreciate your help!

Go to the control panel and find the icon for the td50. Open this and set the buffer to 64. Then go to SD3 and try again. It may already be 64 now. 64 is definitely needed to get latency down and playable.

Mark, Are you referring to the control panel in Windows (if so, how to get to it), OR are you saying the driver within SD3 audio driver setup? If so, which driver? Microsoft, direct, and asio have all been bad latency so far for me also… Sroebuck3 did you ever solve your latency issues? If so, how?
Thanks,
John
From windows main screen In the search panel bottom left type control panel. It will come up in the search so select it. There will be a a td50 icon. Change the value in there. I have found 128 is just about playable. 64 is fine for me and 32 is great
