SONAR RME Audio Digi96/8 pad, reducing latency

Hi, Im not so new to the world of recording but relatively new to recording using a PC.

Im using a 2GHz Celeron with 512 MBs RAM kitted out with a RME Audio DIGI 96/8 PAD card (and a SBLive 5.1 gamer which I run all the system sound through).

Im using Sonar 2.2 XL and ASIO drivers (as SONAR has issues using WMD with the RME audio card)

Upgrading / SONAR or SONAR XL

People,

Finally upgrading from Cakewalk's Pro Audio 9 to SONAR (I know, I know); & need to make a decision as to whether or not to go with SONAR, or SONAR XL.

The reason I ask is: I will also be picking up (as part of a total PC studio upgrade) Steinberg's Wavelab; & iZotope's Ozone 2, so as to have a decent mastering setup...

Can I start/stop Sonar Live with a guitar pedal?

Hello,

OK, I tried asking this question in the "MIDI" forum, but haven't gotten a clear answer in over a week so I thought I'd try here.

Is it possible to start/stop a sequencer with my Boss GT-3 guitar fx foot pedal? I'd like to be able to do this for live applications. I know I can start and stop a sequencer with midi, but can a guitar fx pedal control this?
