![]() ![]() I know this is a bit off topic, but I think it bears mention here, because Firewire 800 was mentioned as the best MIDI data transfer conduit, and it is already obsolete. well, its my little theory but i really do believe that these faster connections and decent drivers for them of course will make all the difference for keyboardists and midi guitarists in a daw environment. and roland/others dont admit to it on specifications. so just imagine how slow that usb1.0 really is! theres just not enough power for high quality softsynths using a 1.0 connection. just because (lets say firewire for example) can transfer up to 800, most motherboards are so overrun and split the resources so that your only getting 150 of that a second instead. especially in windows- the motherboard eats up everything in sight. but when you start using VST's running 600MB of memory, sometimes mine get up to 1200 which still isnt really even alot, once the midi is in the signal it still takes time, resources and power to trigger digital audio accurately. midi data is simple and doesnt require much other then a good pitch to midi detection. im pretty sure something like that and possibly the fishman wireless (if its 2.0) can control digital audio with way better results. and he got it to transfer midi, built into the guitar without a box no less. i dont think windows even supported firewire in 2004 for one thing. Wonder how well the paradise ran in a live setup. ![]()
