Elektron Musical Instruments

Hiya guys and gals,

I have just bought a Machinedrum and have been playing with it for a 
couple of weeks now.

Last night was the first time I hooked it up to my DAW and started to 
check out the MIDI timing.

I have noticed that the timing is not particularly good at all.  I 
recorded a 4.4 Kick drum into Cubase SL2.0 and found that each kick 
was before the beat or after the beat by anything up to about 70 
samples.  I find this to be quite bad.  Has anyone else found this to 
be the case?

It is not as if I am using pooor MIDI equipment.

I have an RME HDSP9632 and some very good quality gold plated MIDI 
cables.  I don't experience such problems with other insturments.

Does anyone know if anything is being done about this?  Is there a 
work around that I am unaware of?

Thanks for any help you can sling my way.

Martyn
