Yes. One track of Cubase has a kick on beat 1 of every bar playing an 
instance of Battery.
MIDI clock from Cubase to P3 (via MIDI express XT), one track of P3 
playing a kick on beat 1 of every bar
P3 going back into cubase and plays another instance of Battery.
I dont know what is actually happening with the latency compensation 
that Cubase is doing automatically (I'll have a look at the manual 
tonight) , all I can say for definite is that I have to delay the midi 
track in Cubase by 19mS (tempo of 125 bpm though hopefully this delay 
isnt tempo related) to get the kick drums to play together. Even then 
the synchronisation of the MIDI start signals doesnt seem to be very 
accurate...its hit and miss...I get it bang on about 1 time in 4 and its 
not solid over time, even without any repeats I only keep sync between 
the drums (i.e. no flamming) for about 22 bars. So to be honest not 
useable. Sorry Colin....I cant see what I'm doing wrong here...if other 
people have actually managed it, there must be something I'm missing.
