[linux-audio-user] ZynAddSubFX sound lags SOLVED

[juuso.alasuutari at tamperelainen.org]

"Problem" solved: I had ZynAddSubFX's internal sound buffer size set to 1024.
With 32 there's practically no lag whatsoever. :)

Quoting juuso.alasuutari at tamperelainen.org:

> I'm driving ZynAddSubFX from MusE with ALSA MIDI & JACK on a 1.7 GHz Pentium

> laptop and a 2.6.17.11 kernel with the realtime-lsm module. The sound lags
> behind ever so slightly; I have to move the notes backward one 32T to be more
> or less on the mark. And even then it sounds like there's a certain
