My missus bought me a telecaster
All the studio equipment - computers, preamps, mics, amps etc etc are in my mate's house
So I bought a Lexicon Alpha usb soundcard off digital village to play the guitar through my laptop using a amp modeling vst (anplitube). Problem is -- I set the latency to 10ms or whatever and 5 minutes of playing later the actual latency is getting worse and worse like 250ms and up. If I reset the latency on the asio control panel it goes back to being playable but the same shit happens again.
Latency also gets worse if I change some patch settings on amplitube.
Anye ideas?

well ...
before buying the lexi interface i'd installed the asio4all driver to just try it out through the lappy's mic socket .. no joy, but i wasn't excpecting much.
so the other night i uninstalled the asio4all driver and was able to play for half an hour through the lexicon thing without the latency problem.
now, i can't think that the asio4all driver was causing the latency to 'degrade'. I think i probably mistook a jump in the latency for an actual 'getting worse bit by bit'. so i can only imagine unlikely scenarios like
the driver was being swapped over somehow
the lexi driver was freaking out then reading the latency setting from asio4all
...
all of which are unlikely to say the least.
anyway, all good now. i'm loving my new guitar, haven't played in years!
