Sub 5m latency -- how to

[Susan Cragin]

I am on the LAU list and someone just suggested using Studio with the 64 
studio kernel for more stable sub-5ms latency tweaking. Anyone have any 
experience with that?

  Ubuntu Studio Fiesty installs with the 'low latency' kernel.  If you
  feel ambitious and want sub 5 ms latency you can install the
  'realtime' kernel patches referenced in the Multimedia Production
  forum for Ubuntu.  This requires more tweaking, but you can
  significantly increase the performance of the echo device this way,
  though it might be fine for your uses now.
