I’m not sure about Mac, but on Windows, when executing commands in quick succession, MGP is just not as consistent and snappy as I would have hoped. The initial command is quick/immediate but the following commands take roughly 600ms and there’s all sorts of inconsistency i.e. MGP becomes unpredictable. This makes e.g. pitching a note up/down or nudging left or right an unpleasant experience.
If my Roland piano or Logitech keyboard suffered from this same behaviour when I was playing or typing fast, they would be unusable.
In this gif you can see that although I am tapping a button consistently at
2 times per second, MGP is struggling to send the MIDI message intime with my taps.
Metaserver is registering all the commands but is executing them in an erratic fashion. This really does adversely affect the UX.
I’m connected through USB. Which is why I posted here. All my other USB devices respond immediately i.e. no discernible lag. But MGP on both my iPads behaves like the gif above illustrates.
Nope. MGP still spits out commands erratically with one iPad connected. It lags behind my button presses and then all of a sudden spits out 2 or 3. Like in the gif.
And fader movements are sporadic. As are XY Pad movements. It all just feels a bit glitchy and spasmodic.
Is it a simple macro with many NoteOn items or a more complicated one with pauses or something else? Or maybe macro with one NoteOn pressed rapidly by the user?
