YOU ARE USING A DELL LAPTOP RIGHT??
Yea, I got a
Dell Inspiron 7500 Notebook--Pentium III processor with
SpeedStepT, 750MHz, 15.4" SXGA 256MB, SDRAM, 1 DIMM, Video
Memory: 4MB ATI Mobility-P 3D Video with 2X AGP Primary Hard Drive:30GB
Ultra ATA Hard Drive, Additional Hard Drive: Modular 30GB Ultra ATA
Second Hard Drive.
I bought it in August 2000, so for sure it could be had today for
a fraction of what i paid. I got a Digigram VX Pocket card (v2) to use with
it, and although it does have an ASIO driver, I can't seem to get under 20ms.
That's why I'm thinking about going with the RME Multiface (I get about 6ms
latency on my Dell P-IV desktop using the RME Hammerfall). I really want to
trigger Battery on my Laptop via my Zendrum, but I can't get comfortable
triggering drums in real time with 20ms latency. Anybody else triggering in
real time from a PC laptop, and if so, what sound card solutions are you using
and what latency are you getting?
YES...FOR SURE...ALAN IS OUR NEWEST AND HE DID THE ZENDRUM
WEBBPAGE,,,NICE JOB BY THE WAY...SPEAKING OF ...VERY SOON WE WILL HAVE ...ARE
YOU READY??? SOUNDS ONBOARD!!!!!!
YOU'LL BE ABLE TO
DOWNLOAD KITS AND UPDATES DIRECTLY FROM THE WEBBPAGE...WE HAVE ALREADY DONE
SOME CUSTOM SAMPLING OF SOME KITS AND I THINK WE ARE ALSO GOING TO SAMPLE SOME
OF MY OWN INSTRUMENTS AS WELL AS MY KILLER DW SHORTSTACK KIT I JUST GOT LAST
FALL.
Alan did a phenomenal job on the Zendrum Website, it is one of
the best I've seen.
Can't wait to start downloading
samples. Are there any updates in the works at this
time?
Too bad no DrumCamp with Roy this
year.
I met him in 1977 (Vic too) when I was
living in Newport News VA. Used to go over to their house for Jams in the
garage. He was ('is', I'm sure) a monster player on 'real' drums too. Vic was
about 11 yrs old at the time, and totally amazing. I remember going to hear
them play (the Wooten Bros) at a high school dance that year, and they tore it
up, playing everything from EWF to RTF, Weather Report and
Beyond.
KOSA is definitely a great hang. Just
be sure to bring a window fan if you're staying on campus (Castleton State
College, in VT), as there is no AC in the dorm rooms. It be great to see you
up there Tom.
