Hi Leandro, welcome to this mailing list!
I would say that the overall setup should not be a problem for hydrogen. In my experience a USB soundcard with a midi input is far superior to those usb-midi cables, but this is (as always) a question of your budget.
I can imagine that you could get better answers regarding the perfomance-tuning of your systems either on the Linux audio users mailing list (https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user) or on the linuxmusicians forum (https://linuxmusicians.com).
Hope that helps, Sebastian Am 14.06.2017 17:07, schrieb Leandro:
Hi guys , I recetly founded this amazing hydrogen software. Some weeks ago a received this hobby drum set: http://www.spikenzielabs.com/Catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=1024 I finished assembly it and it is working now. So far I tested this using ableton and it is working good but it still have a little latency while playing. Since im linux fan I preffer to make it work with hydrogen. Here some of my questions. Is it possible to make it work using my laptop sound card (alsa driver) and usb-midi cable ? What is the lower latency I can get ? (so far I can get 185 ms using ableton on a vm) Is it better to use jack or jack2 ? Is there any linux distro where the complete system works better ? (hydrogen + jack + midi + usb-midi). What are the mandatory things I need to check to make it work ? (kernel modules , drivers , libraries , etc ) Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Hydrogen-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/hydrogen-devel
