Barry,
thanks for the info, Local on or off doesn't make any difference in playing except hearing the casio of course.
I have been experimenting with forte settings and the reported latency is about 8 ms? now. Tried to lower the buffers, got awful noises instead of sound.
I think it feels better, I didn't have the time to test it though.
Rikki,
I have an "el cheapo" soundcard, and when i play with headphones, a noise is heard along with the sound, sounds like the hiss you get when putting meat on very hot surface. It stops a little after the actual instrument sound stops, so it is not the "usual noise" you get from equipment.
I'll install an SBsomething to see if that is related to the soundcard or the Hypercanvas samples. If that noise stops, keep heads low, I am going to throw the old card as far away as I can.

In an old Cakewalk I was using years ago, ver3 If I remember correctly, I was able to set a -12 semitone transpose in the channel that the bass was in so it sounded as it should be.
How I'm going to do this in HyperCanvas, god knows, but I;'ll try to get hands dirty, digging.
If you have any suggestions, they are welcome
Thanks you both for your time and effort.
