Re: Timing Debate

2007-05-03 by j3l1yt0t5

its the *internal* timing thats whack, not the midi. The midi is solid
& consistant. its the sounds triggered inside the machine that are
sloppy or magic, depends on your working methods I suppose.

so, you're spitting midi thats 'rigid/stiff/sterile' and the internal
sounds have 'magic' timing.....great craic altogether.

I'd live with the 'magical' internal timing if the midi matched it.
