Korg Nanopad reactivity

Hiya, I recently received a Korg Nanopad that I'm trying to use with Reason. The software recognises it properly, I can set up the keys and all...but I am appalled with its reactivity. There's a clear delay between the moment I hit the pads and the sound it generates.

I know I can not expect too much from a 50 quid device, but as it is I can not do anything really.

So I guess I'm probably doing something wrong...

Any idea?

...unless you use some proper audio drivers.

what soundcard do you use?

yeah, get some asio drivers for your soundcard and keep the latency at minimum, I've never used Reason but it seems pretty obvious that's your problem.

$50 MIDI controller is shit. News at 11.

I have the same set up, and no problems.

It's got nothing to do with his midi controller.

yep, it's latency, get asio4all

Lol, £50 (not that it makes much difference).

You're right, my mate is a prick, he should have got me Maschine instead, fucking tight arse!
