That’s quite clever but not really practical : instruments heard in most music produced today aren’t "played" by humans.

Silicon Valley's propension to introduce externalities into the world yet never want to deal with the negative ones because "you guys have no idea how hard this is" will never cease to amaze me. But hey, I guess this is why t

Yev, thanks for intervening but I’ve just received an update so incredible and unapologetic that I’m tempted to share verbatim excerpts here, and I think you should take a look. Support is basically telling me that the inherit process on th

You're right, users absolutely should not have to debug computers and live performance is especially sensitive to realtime constraints. It's the developers job to do so, and they're basically procrastinating for as long as th

Most of the developers emailing their users in panic are not in this situation though. They're writing audio plugins using the AU or VST APIs. They don't ever touch hardware or even deal with realtime constraints directly : they j

macOS has had a reliable low-latency audio API for years, when on Windows you had to resort to third party hacks like ASIO. For years it has also had things like Audio Midi Setup, which lets you set up aggregate virtual audio interfaces fro
