sometimes I just want to play without being constrained by a metronome. What tempo should Cubase be? If I make it really fast it would be more accurate right? Is there a down side to this? Could it use more CPU that way? I have always wondered ahbout this.

When i record midi notes with my axon midi guitar (6 channel midi data) i find it best to record at a slow tempo while playing slow... Then i raise the tempo. In general it doesn't make any difference

Given a midi resolution, obviously a faster tempo is theorically more accurate, as much as this term can stretched to fit the midi protocol....

BPM tempo wont do too muvh difference, as lon as quantizising is turned off.

Hubrid, I meant MIDI.
Alfonso, that's what I figure.
I think internal synths can perform better than external, yes? I mean without the special midi interface steinberg for cubase and emagic for logic. I have emagic but with cubase so I don't get the increased midi speed.

It's not faster like that, it's actually slower. Like PDC (Plugin Delay Compensation) delays audio trakcs to match up with the slowest ones.
You don't need to set higher bpm, set a higher MIDI resolution (PPQN) instead.
