Right now i am currently using mixcraft to make my beats. I have a laptop connected to a keyboard using a USB midi cord i bought 6 months ago. I have been using th same setup for the 6 months and today opened up a project i was working on yesterday and my keyboard has a 1.5 second delay with the program. Is there anyway i can fix this?? please help. Thank you

In Mixcraft, click on the File menu and select Preferences. In the Sound Device preferences, if you are using Wave, you can try reducing the number of buffers to 4 and the buffer size to 4096. Doing this could cause some playback problems, but you can always bump the buffers back up again.

Another thing to try, if you don’t have the ASIO option, would be the generic ASIO driver called "ASIO4All:" http://www.asio4all.com/

Whats good fam? I recently picked up an M-Audio Axiom 25 midi keyboard with the drum pads. I have been using it for 6 days straight and, so far, its pretty sick. With the pads AND the keyboard, you get the best of both worlds. I might be making some of my upcoming beats if I get any good with this, but for now, Im just gonna use other beats.

This keyboard is straight USB, and I got it for $170, if your looking into getting a midi with drum pads, I would highly recommend this one. The Axiom also has a 49 key for like $250 which is also real nice.

By the way, the beat I showed you guys was my first beat ever, so if it sucks, don’t hate on it. More beats are soon to come.

Thanks for watching.

If anyone knows how to chop up samples in garageband, give me a holler.
