Well, it's not like a little problem you can move on : the timing issue make the
Machinedrum incompatible with other machine. You can't play live with a lot of
gear without drifting, you can't record loop in sync in Ableton Live without
rework them... i really don't understand the position of Elektron here. The
Machinedrum force me to record and edit manually each loop ! Why loose all this
time to make simple things.

They want to make the best drummachine ever, but if she can't stay in sync with
other gear it's crazy ! I can't believe it's a "feature". Daniel say yes but for
me it's a kind of "never say bad things about our gear" answer. Like a
politician he have to positive a bad thing. I could understand that but i prefer
"in fact it' really a bug, sorry", or "Maybe it was a mistake, if you are a lot
to think like that we will try to fix that" :)

Daniel, don't blame on me, i love my Machinedrum like everyone else here, but
this problem is a major one for me.
