mercyplease went out to prove it is not specifically Live causing this problemforgie wrote:So is the conclusion of this thread that we should petition Ableton to tighten up the "loose" midi timing?"WE WANT 10ns MIDI ACCURACY! WE WANT 10ns MIDI ACCURACY!" (with knotkranky leading the charge

I seem to remember kk saying something along the lines of "improving it is better for everyone"..... maybe not if improving something that doesn't need fixing costs Ableton man-hours, and ends up increasing Live's CPU usage.
What's the point of this thread again?
Have we all agreed that Live doesn't have a problem? Or is there still doubt? I'm not being a fanboy, I just want some hard cold evidence here: if anyone is having issues, post a sample of the problems, and list your setup. That way we can all learn about what's actually causing these MIDI issues.
although the original poster I think disagreed, but I'm not completely sure what in fact he was experiencing, after that big lot of stuff he pasted he seemed to be suggesting there is some kind of automatic "humanise" in Live that he wants to switch off
he clearly felt he was experiencing some kind of sloppiness and not experiencing it in FLS or EXT
Then other people are saying they dont get it
so is there a conlcluision? Do Ableton really need to care?
or is it a case of how can improvement, even if not really asked for ever be a bad thing?
the point Knotkranky made about MTC was a good one - "tumbledry"'s posted stuff said 96ppqn was as tight as midi can get - yet MOTU are claiming a blistering 10000ppqn for their MTC technology!
so where does that leave us?
I think the ball is in the original poster's court to spell it out a bit more clearly what he is experiencing!
