1. There is no latency at all, even if you run a usb cable out and back into the computer, once it is setup you chose an instrument from the thru function beside the melody at the top and chose an instrument. That is assuming you have a keyboard you want to use with it.

2. The patch map is on the website here and you download it. Just leave the synth selection at GM/GS and when you go to chose an instrument you can pick from the list once you identify the Ketron.

My synth is a Roland Rogers W50 and I have the Roland JV1010 but the Ketron is way better.

So my setup invovles the computer, the wee hard drive I got the works on (so I can change and run the software on each level of the house if |I want), Edirol usb midi in out gizmo, the line outs from my W50 synth to my mixer, the line outs of the ketron to the mixer. I tend to use the organ sounds a lot, and accordian if I'm doing Celtic.
