Elektron Musical Instruments

Have you actually gone in and looked at the WAV file?

Record the percussion in from the MD and then view the recording - 
I'm sure you will find that some sounds are behind the beat and some 
are infront.  Rather than listening to it - just view it in the 
cubase sample editor.

People can argue that if it sounds ok then it is ok, but I simply 
can't work with it knowing that it is not how I want it to be...
