Awsome, Chaser!
Thanks again for this! I will try the usb 2 connection. Do you think this will affect the latency when playing? I just assumed it woul;d so I went with the fastest connection on the mobo. I guess I was wrong on that.
So in a nutshell, som modules suffer from this cord length issue and some don't? Was that the issue with the Nitro Module specifically?
Thanka again for this, Chaser. I can't tell you how much I appreciate.
MIDI 1.0 has a baud rate..it won't go any faster than 31250..even though MIDI 1.0 protocol was developed in the early 1980's , there wasn't a USB classification until 1999...MIDI 2.0 has been released earlier this year..a number of OS are starting to show
MIDI-CI (iOS 14.0 and macOS BigSur)
As far as latency , I would use shortest cable you can get by with and connect directly to the computer.
Years ago there were devices that had
RTP-MIDI...Alesis had quite a few.but not any drum modules.
Developers have started receiving SDK's etc and last week a new USB Classification for MIDI 2.0.
USB Device Class Specification MIDI 2.0 MIDI 2.0 is moving fast there are some keyboards already supporting it like the
Roland A88 MKII , but it will be awhile before we see a MIDI 2.0 Drum Module and more than likely Roland will be first since they (and Dave Smith) were originally involved with the
Origins of MIDI
also Drum Software developers will have to drastically change their software from 16 channels to 256 channels (16 groups x 16 channels) and resample all their libraries..etc etc
EDITI made a post for MIDI 2.0 and WEB MIDI
here sometime ago , I will update it eventually
