Topic: Little bit of advice needed
Hi everyone,
I've been playing piano for few month and recently got hooked by pianoteq, I'm still using the tryout but will buy full version today!
I needed some advices regarding my setup, I'm a complete beginner. As of today I'm using :
Keyboard : Kawai KDP90 (Midi port only so i'm using roland UM-ONE mk2 to plug it to the usb 3.0 of my computer)
OS : Ubuntu (can switch to windows if needed)
PC (laptop) : I5 with integrated soundcard (~5ms to ~10ms)
Sound and latency are decent, but I think I could boost a little bit the quality of the sound by buying an external sound card. I've been digging some affordable sound card and the Focusrite scarlet seems to be great (2i2 or 2i4).
The questions are :
Will the sound improvement will be really noticable ?
Will the latency will be enhanced or roughly the same?
Should I buy a sound card with midi port only (2i4) or an USB+midi to usb would be equivalent in term of performance (2i2+roland UM one mk2) ?
Is there any other equivalent soundcard that could be better in term of price or quality?
Thank you in advance for your help and your Expertise!
