I have a YAMAHA psr E203 keyboard. I bought a MIDISPORT UNO USB adaptor. It has two 5 pin plugs for in and out sockets on keyboard. Both wires come together to make a Y at the other end wich turns into is a sinlge USB plug for the PC. I entended on using my keyboard along with some piano teaching software (such as Piano Suite}. The program is supposed to provide realtime feedback when I press the keys. There is major delay and I have heard it all as far as what could be wrong.

1st latency. I have been told to adjust it or use other software. The program does not have latency adjusting abilities. The software company tells me it is not needed. There should not be any delay.

Drivers.I was told by YAMAHA that I need to install Yammaha driver. The USB adapture uses the WIN XP standared audio usb driver. I see no way of intalling the keyboard driver as there is no way the computer will reconize the keybaoerd is attatched. It just pick up on the USB chord. The cord does have a sort of modulater. I was told by the software company that my keybaoerd is sending too much information. Yamaha says no and there are no settings to fix it. Also, I went to yamaha page and downloaded thier driver pack. There is every model except mine in the downlaod file. I cannot find any refrence anywhere as to another model driver being compadable. Even so if I do get the driver, what do I do with it? the pc again just reconizes the USB cable.

Anybody, All I want to do in the cheapest way is to hook up my board to the pc so I can use it along with the piano software. When it tells me to play notes, I have to hit the keys 5-10 X's just for it to register. The funny thing is, if I am using my keyboard to play tempo music, I am able to get a quicker response on the pc end. THe virtual keyboard highlights it's keys in sequence and my pressing keys registers about 90%. Yet it is so slow to respond when simply pressing the piano key without backup music. Any ideas please Help. Guitar Center can't even tell me what's up.

Hi DPU
