Buenos días quería platear al foro un "problemilla", por si alguien ha tenido la misma dificultad y si la ha conseguido resolver...

He comprado un teclado maestro para conectarlo via USB al Biab, a fin de solucionar algunos dudas de acordes y armonías mediante el ARMONISTA.
He grabado una melodía en la pista de Melodia y el Armonista facilita los acordes según estilos; pero observo un retardo en la grabación, lo que hace difícil la correcta interpretación de los acordes.
Hay alguna solución para conseguir la perfecta sincronización de teclado y Biab.
Agradeceré una solución.
Cordialmente. Isidro.

Pd.El teclado es un Garagekey 37 Usb y he observado que con Windows 7 funciona, pero con XP no lo reconoce Biab y el fabricante no facilita drivers de instalación. Alguien sabe que drivers de Windows se necesita.

Hola Isidro, gusto en saludarte. El problema no está en tu teclado maestro, el Garagekey 37 es un teclado controlador sencillo y muy bueno para comenzar en el mundo del MIDI, es del tipo "class compliant", es decir, algo asi como "plug and play, conecte y toque", por eso el fabricante no ofrece drivers para el. En ese caso tu teclado, es reconocido al instante por tu sistema. El retraso que observas es un fenómeno llamado LATENCIA, como tu mismo mencionas, el cual es un retardo que se produce cuando el procesador trata de interpretar la información recibida por las interfaces de audio. Por definición, Latencia es el tiempo que transcurre entre un estímulo y la respuesta que produce. En redes informáticas de datos se denomina latencia a la suma de retardos temporales dentro de una red. Un retardo es producido por la demora en la propagación y transmisión de paquetes dentro de la red. El MIDI por si mismo no produce la latencia, la misma es producida por la placa de audio, si la misma no es profesional y no soporta drivers ASIO 2. 0 o Gsif, el procesador no encontrará la forma de intepretar con prontitud la información.

Por eso es muy importante que nos suministres información acerca de tu placa (tarjeta) de audio, marca, modelo. Para orientarte, basicamente hay dos opciones:

1- Audio nativo: es cuando se usa la tarjeta de audio integrada en la placa madre del ordenador. Estos sistemas de audio por lo general no poseen drivers especializados, como el ASIO, para compensar la latencia. Son una solución para las tareas normales realizadas en un ordenador típico, como son: audio multimedia, audición y reproducción de música, transmisión y grabación de la voz para internet, por lo general para chatear, enviar mensajes de voz. Pero distan mucho de poseer el nivel de calidad de audio que se requiere para la producción musical y de audio en un moderno estudio en casa.

2- Tarjeta de sonido o audio externa: la opción mas idónea para cuando se necesita utilizar el ordenador en labores de audio avanzado en un estudio, tanto profesional como en casa. Por lo general los fabricantes suministran los drivers o controladores para este tipo de tarjetas de audio. Estos drivers garantizan la reducción de la Latencia a niveles practicamente imperceptibles, es decir, sin retraso. Se puede comprobar por que al tocar una nota por ejemplo en un teclado maestro, la respuesta es instantanea. Igualmente al monitorizar la voz o una guitarra electrica, la respuesta deberá ser casi instantánea si los drivers correpondientes estan instalados, asignados y funcionando.


Si tu caso es el primero, existe una solución alternativa. la cual, sin ser tan especializada y precisa en todos los casos como la suministrada por los drivers de una tarjeta especializada, nos da una opción que cumple su cometido cuando se disponga solo del audio integrado en el ordenador. Y me refiero a ASIO4ALL, un controlador genérico para sistemas de audio huerfanos de driver ASIO, la descarga del mismo se realiza AQUI (disonible en español) sin costo alguno y es de muy fácil instalación. En algunos casos cuando se presentan inconvenientes de compatibilidad entre un driver ASIO y Band-in-a-Box, la solución por medio de ASIO4ALL ha sido el recipe del doctor. Por eso te reitero nos suministres la información del audio usado en tu sistema. Espero tu respuesta para hacer una evaluación de tu sistema y las posibles soluciones.

Un gran saludo

Carlos

Hola Carlos, estuve "chusmeando" el tema latencia, muy interesante, ahora comprendo porque mi equipo hace algunas cosas. Yo tengo como tu dices, la placa de sonido on board en mi Mother Asus con algunos años. Me podrías facilitar el ASIO4ALL o lo puedo bajar de alguna página. Podrías pasarme todas las indicaciones para la instalación y su funcionamiento en el BAIB 2010.5 ? Un cordialísimo saludo

Hola Silverio, si no lo tienes todavía lo puedes descargar gratis desde aquí: http://www.asio4all.com/ allí encontrarás la versión en Español con todas las instrucciones. Para habilitarlo en Band in a Box solo tines que entrar en la configuración de audio y seleccionarlo dentro de los drivers tipo ASIO en donde lo encontrarás disponible luego de instalarlo.

Para la configuración del mismo, en el momento que se encuentra activo busca el ícono de ASIO4ALL en tu barra de taréas y realiza los ajustes correpondientes, generalmente el seteo por defecto funciona muy bien, pero dependerá de algunas pruebas para conseguir el punto ideal de acuerdo al no. de samples en el bufer. El ASIO4ALL no es perfecto para todo tipo de dispositivo de audio, por lo que te recomiendo estar atento a cualquier detalle o incompatibilidad que encuentres. Generalmente 512 en el bufer da el resultado average mas adecuado.

Suerte!

Carlos

Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.

There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.
