Funny, I can find audio interfaces that do this but not the answer to if my MP6 does.
SYNTHOGY IVORY 2 GRAND MANUAL
My manual says just that if you use both a MIDI port and the USB that the USB takes priority. Hmmm, I found your answer there but not my own, LOL ! I'm trying to figure out if my MP6 will swap midi both in and out on one USB cable. Just for FWIW, it seems you are on the right track then ! Two or three different people were not using anything super fast and modern for laptops with VST and successfully. Everyone claimed that Ivory II was the biggest on computer demand, Galaxy a bit less and Pianoteq the least demanding on older computers. His processor was the same as yours and the HD was a 5400 RPM one and he claimed no issue once upgrading his ASIO.

He claimed, and others followed, that drivers are key and also interface. But I hit on a thread where a guy was using a similar computer and vintage as yours. I was over in both Pianoteq a forums and Pianoworld forums looking up the subject of my MP6 and VST ( I have a windows 7 laptop with an i3 processor I want to use with mine).

If ASIO4ALL does not turn out to be the solution after all, I guess I will just have to consider buying a new dedicated PC for this purpose, but I am still hoping I can avoid that for now.
SYNTHOGY IVORY 2 GRAND UPDATE
Great tip! I will test it some more, and post an update when I have a clearer picture of the situation. Actually this seemed to have helped on the latency! Also, ASIO4ALL seems to give a more fine-grained control over the buffer size, so I can do some more detailed tests to see how low I can set the buffer size without getting "artifacts" and stutter in the output. Schwartzer: I had not heard about ASIO4ALL before, but I installed it and just tested it briefly now.
BTW: I am a software developer with a masters degree, so hopefully I would not need a tech guy to help me stop some services and tasks in Windows But I am a novice in the world of virtual pianos and music software in general, so I have much to learn on that particular subject.

That is why I was having a feeling that it could maybe be possible to do some configuration or driver updates that would utilize the hardware even more. Iansinclair: Yes, I am aware that the CPU is quite old, and I would not be surprised if it would be a bottleneck for newer software, but I would then maybe expect the average CPU load to be higher while playing. Hope you can accept that I am quite a novice in the world of virtual pianos. So my question to you guys are if you know of a way I could reduce the latency/delay on my older laptop without having to do major hardware upgrades. I do however not want to use the MacBook for piano purpose, because I need to take it around with me for other work.

I have also installed Ivory II on my new MacBook Pro Retina,which is quite a powerhouse, and here it runs very smoothly with no noticeable delay. Neither of these seem to solve my problem. I have also tried reducing the number of voices.
I have tried setting memory usage to both large, medium and small. I currently use a buffer size of 512, and if I decrease it further the sound becomes "choppy" and bad. I figured since the windows task manager tells me that both the CPU, the RAM and the disk should have unused potential, and since I am assuming that hardware limitations should be the main reason for latency, this should be possible to improve. Even though this is not a very big delay, it is still noticeable and annoying, so I was hoping I could reduce it a bit more. Sure thing, the stuttering was gone with the SSD, but the delay was about 11 ms (according to the buffer size settings). I did however see that neither the CPU nor the RAM was anywhere near the max load, so I figured my problem should be solved by upgrading to an SSD. Originally it had a 5400 rpm HDD, and then it was struggling a lot with keeping the sound from stuttering, and I got warnings in Ivory Cantabile saying that my disk was too slow. Avid Fast Track Duo dedicated USB sound card On paper, the system requirements should be met: I have a laptop which I am intending to use as a dedicated piano PC. I am however experiencing some trouble with getting the delay down to an acceptable level, and this is where I need some help. I just purchased the Synthogy Ivory II Italian Grand, and I first have to say: Wow! Amazing sound!
