Hi guys,

I was wondering if someone could help me out here. I have just bought an Alesis DM5 electric drum kit in order to allow me to play my MIDI drum parts. I am trying to play a drum kit from within Reason 3 using my electric drum kit, but when I try to play the kit, the sound from Reason 3 isn't playing back properly. There is a sort of delay within the notes as I play This is quite confusing as I don't think it would be down to my ASIO drivers because when I play using a MIDI keyboard, it works fine with no delay. Please guys, if anyone could help me out here, I'd be ever so grateful.

Thanks for any help

As any controller you use with reason, you have to set your latency. If you do not play with the latency you will lag forever!

Simply open any reason project, goto the edit tab - > Preferences.
A window opens, the page pull down has an option, audio. Simply play with the Sample Rate: BUFFER SIZE, my controller is set to 1856.

This will work with any device that you make reason recognize. Just play with that sample rate buffer, you'll find the sweet spot.
