Analogue-sequencer

Thanks for all the help...I have had another go this evening. I 
simplified the setup so I have a kick on beat 1 of every bar coming out 
of both Cubase and the P3...they then both play their own instances of 
Battery so there is no latency differences. The delay using the MIDI 
clock to P3 and back to battery is approx 19mS. Unfortunately even 
getting this setup the timing is still a bit hit and miss i.e. probably 
every fourth time I hit play the drums are synced otherwise I'm getting 
a flam...also if I have a repeat i.e. looping around 8 bars the sync is 
gone pretty much after the first loop. I cant see what I'm doing wrong 
but I'm pretty sure that you guys have got things synced better than 
this...as I certainly wouldnt consider this as acceptable. I find it 
hard to work out what I can change I am using a MOTU MIDI express XT 
with a MAC book pro...which  I would have thought is a pretty bog 
standard setup (the express XT is pretty much the only 8 channel MIDI 
interface that will work with the MAC these days...I had to throw the 
Cubase interface in the bin as Steinberg dont support it anymore 
(warning: never buy Steinberg hardware))

I think I need to find another way of doing this...has anybody used an 
external sync box sending MIDI clock to P3 and SMPTE or wordclock or MTC 
to Cubase...does this work any better

cheers
