This sounds like latency to me.

This is not the same as my experiences - I can have a 4/4 beat where 
the first kick may be 200 samples before the beat, the second may be 
150 samples after the beat, the next 300 samples after the beat and 
the last could be 100 samples before the beat.

I cannot correct this by nudging the audio, like you should be able 
to do...


Thanks for checking though,

Drammy
