Latency I deal with by calculating everything a second or so ahead of time, and timestamping my OSC packets with times in the future. Then on the other side I have some scheduling stuff to trigger sounds at the right moment, for example in SuperCollider's sclang:
A second seems excessive? Working directly with ghc <-> scsynth latencies of ~ 0.075 do not seem to be and issue with even relatively heavy scheduling loads.
response = { arg time, responder, message; if (message[1] == 'on', { SystemClock.sched(time - Date.getDate.rawSeconds, {Synth("noisebox", [\lgain, message[2] / 100, \rgain, message[3] / 100, \ts, message[4] / 100, \browndel, message[5] / 100, \filter, message[6], \envtype, message[7] ] ); nil; }; ); }); }; o = OSCresponder(nil, '/noise', response); o.add;
Even sclang, remarkable as it is, will need to be sending time-stamped bundles for reliable sample-accurate timing? Even to avoid perceptible jitter under high load? Regards, Rohan
