CINEMATIC THUNDER reasonably low for good latency performance We recommend 256 samples or less The lower the latency slider the less latency the split second between the physical playing of the note and the sound coming out of Kontakt will be but the harder the computer will have to work Typical useful values range between 128 and 256 however very fast computers may be able to handle lower values while very slow computers may need higher values 01 The MIDI page of the Options dialog box must be configured in order to let Kontakt know which MIDI device s to respond to Kontakt will respond to up to four MIDI input ports and D so we recommend you switch one MIDI source on to Port A as shown in the graphic below 02 More detailed information on the setup options can be found in the accompanying Kontakt manual Once you have completed Kontakt setup jump ahead to the Getting Started with CINEMATIC THUNDER section below CoreRudio MOTU 18 In 12 Out Device Device driver configuration Running Status v Sample rate Latency i Processing 29ms Output 0 7 ms Overall 38 ms EE ou
