Hi,
When connecting my Yamaha to Power Tracks, using midi, the audio that I hear while I am playing, and the playback itself is terrible. What I am expecting is something as good as the samples that come with the program.
I initially had it setup to play back through my PC speakers, the audio was very low, could not hear it.
So I got it to playback though my keyboard speakers, volume was pretty decent then. The sound of the keyboard though is not good.
Ex. Play without being hooked up to PT, sounds good. Plug in usb cable, instant degrading in the audio quality, level drops, notes do not sound as good. Start recording, through-out the song when playing chords, individual note amplitudes will vary, a three note chord may, or may not have all three notes at the same level, one may jump in all of a sudden, may sound high pitched.
Pretty much,if I play some song without being hooked to PT, sounds good, connect to PT, does not sound the same anymore.
As for drivers, it is using the yamaha input and output drivers. No latency issues.
Lot of choices power tracks midi drivers dialog boxes.
Ideally would like to have the recorded sound as same as what I play when not recording using PT.
Thanks for any direction.
Jeff
