Hi all To make the timing thread even more interesting I just found out that when my MD-UW is triggered by my MPC4000 (playing a simple 120 bpm sequence containing a single MIDI note triggered every quarter note) it shows a very peculiar timing pattern. (length in samples between each quarter notes @ 120bpm) ... 22144 x 22016 22017 22016 22144 x 22016 22017 22017 22144 x 22017 22016 22015 22144 x 22016 22016 22017 22144 x .... Can you see the pattern? Some other tests confirmed that the 128 samples lag is not coming from the MIDI out of the MPC. Considering that in this specific case the MD sequencer is not even running it looks like the lag comes directly from the MD sound engine. Interestingly enough the lag stays the same independently of the type of sound triggered (synthesized sound or UW sample). I don't wanna draw any conclusion but this test seems to confirm that the "magic" factor in the sequencer is only partially responsible for this whole timing issue. The sound engine clearly plays its part as well. Best Regards Leo
