Cubase SX3 MIDI help!!

So I just got CuBase and installed it on my computer. I set up my MIDI controller as well. CuBase shows that it is connected and when I hit a note the MIDI connection shows that there is activity. However there is a lag between the time I hit a note and hearing a sound. This also happens when I use a VST soft synth like the monolouge, so I know it isn't just the controller/MIDI connection. Also, I am having trouble acessing the sound banks on my synths. I want to be able to use them however I can't seem to get them to work. Any ideas? Thanks.

Latency, make your sound card buffer size smaller. Search the forum, this has been answered a million times (Hint - read the stickies).

Be more specific.

thanks man for responding. ill check out the forums for the lag problem, but i cant access the sound bank on my synth. i cant seem to connect my synth sound banks to my possible list of synth banks. idk how much more specific i can get. my controller works but i just cant find out how to use my sounds.

there is no lag on my controller when it uses sound banks from my sound card. but when i try to use the sound bank from my synth or cubase it lags.

Oh! So you have a bunch of bank/preset files on your comp but you don't know how to import them? Read the manual, it will be in there. Every synth has its own bank/preset import button, but most sequencers (Cubase) also have one - so it will be in the manual for the synth AND the manual for Cubase.

yes i have my manual for my synth and i will check that out, but i dont have one for cubase but ill see whats up with some tutorials. i played around with bitmatching and some stuff with my sound card to see if i can get the latency up but no luck so far. thanks for all your help though.

What kind of software doesn't come with a manual when you purchase it?

Smart fellow.

My Cubase Studio 4 didn't come with a manual. Only a quickstart tutorial book. There is a digital manual on the DVD however.

A digital manual is a manual, is it not?

NO.

i've had the same problem. sounds like you need to mess with your ASIO drivers within cubase (i wish i could have cubase open here at work). it's somewhere within midi options.

If you buy Cubase 4 you get a printed manual
