Hi Roger, [Have amended subject - to correct spelling! Smile] As I understand it, and put quite simply, it's the time delay between say hitting a note on your keyboard, and hearing it through your soundcard speakers. Similar to playing one of the old wind-pipe organs, where you were often playing 2-3 bars ahead of what you were hearing.
