Thanks guys this all sounds promising.

Also I should have mentioned initially that it's MIDI to Audio latency I'm mainly worried about. Using standard class-compliant USB midi controllers, but guitar/live audio FX processing would be my second project.

>10ms is around the human-ear latency, so anything at that level or below should be good enough for guitar/drumming (this is anectodtal... Iḿ not sure the exact science behind it). Ive never had a problem with my friends older 13" MacBook Pro used as a guitar FX box.

Can't remember what it translates to in ms, but 128 seems like "instant" to me, somewhere between 5-10 I think. Others may be able to offer more detail/correct me.
