I have EZDrummer 2 and a Kat KTMP1 Multipad. The best latency I can achieve is 90+ ms.
Buy a Kat Percussion KTMP1 Electronic Drum and Percussion Pad Sound Module for a limited time and you may be qualified to receive financing of 0%.
Sound card is SoundBlaster Extreme X-fi
I’ve tried every combination I can find.
Kat device USB in the computer. EZD2 in standalone mode.
Kat MIDI into Presonus Audiobox USB into the computer EZD2 in standalone.
Kat MIDI into Mio 1×1 MIDI to USB into the computer. EZD2 in standalone
FL Studio 12 with EZD2 as a plug-in. Tried every driver, buffer size, offset.

Straight into MIDI-OX, the Kat seems to work well …. but, that’s only subjective. I don’t know how I would get a time value for any latency from MIDI-OX. But, it’s a heck of a lot quicker response than EZD2 in stand alone (visually.) This makes me think it’s not the interface.

ASIO4ALL reports about a 12 ms delay (EZD2 stand alone) but has no audio output regardless of Audio device selected. I’ve selected every combination in the Blaster settings window and still get no sound using ASIO.
I don’t believe it’s the sound card. I can even see the delay from a pad strike to the response from EZD2. EZD2 graphics don’t even move until my stick has rebounded well off the pad. It’s a full slow 1/16th note behind (play four slow notes and there’s always one more after I stop … it’s that bad.)
Youtube says nothing more than adjust the buffer size in your DAW which doesn’t shorten the latency.
I really don’t know what’s causing the latency … interface, computer, sound card, s/w settings … and I don’t know of any other thing to test or adjust.
I don’t mind doing the research …. I just don’t know what else to research at this point. I will be posting to the FL Studio forum and contact Kat to see what may be there also.
Any ideas out there?
