Midi clock and accuracy are kind of always trouble. Put on top the fact 
that you tigger from the "slave" unit and you are bound to get flams. 
Have you tried putting live as a master ? At least then the clock pulses 
are more likely to be in sync with the notes you trigger.

The question of course is why use live to trigger sequences if you got 
the md in front of you :)
