Hi everyone!

I am not a big recording mage nor a great keyboard player, so I am not sure that my integrated sound card is capable of processing the midi input of the NanoKey without latency. I am going to buy one today, but if my sound card is not enough I can buy a better sound card for my pc. I understand that probably I will need a card with Asio 2.0 capability, but I don't have much money or any PCI express slot on my PC's motherboard (I have one for the graphics card, but I am not going to pull it off :biggrin:). If anyone have suggestions about the possible cards, please let me know!

There are many good USB sound cards for sale, all with ASIO support. Just check out your favorite on-line music retailer.

I use a Creative audigy 4 and I get a good latency using a nanokey so anything like that or better should be ok.

Thank you for your help! It seems like my soundcard is good enough to control this little thing without problems. The delay is not disturbing me, so it's okay for now. Between, it's awesome!
