[AUDITORY] MIDI Drum Pads: Delay and temporal resolution



Dear Auditory List,

 

I am currently looking at purchasing a MIDI Drum Pad for experimental research involving finger tapping. There appears to be very little information regarding how much of a time delay there is between the pads being tapped and the sound being produced (via external MIDI devices or the drum pad’s internal sequencer).

 

I’m looking to have the smallest time delay possible (sub-millisecond would be ideal). Does anyone have any advice about the best device to use and what kinds of time delays I should expect from the device? Their unit of pulses per quarter note does not appear to be very informative.

 

Kind regards,
