How To Determine Latency Of Midi?

ComfortableInClouds's icon

Hi, I frequently use Max to generate midi info that I record in Ableton. However, there is a latency between these two programs. Is there an application out there which can tell me what the latency between the programs is? I've just been determining it through trial and error (~ 15ms usually), but would like an easier, and more accurate method. Thanks!

Hi,

Did you already try sending MIDI to Ableton and immediately sent the same MIDI back? With the timer object in MAX you should be able to determine the latency times 2......
