hey all, quick question--

I'm using Live 4 on a Win XP system. Everything is fine except: When I record a MIDI track, some of the notes are recorded 'late' even though I'm not playing them late.

Here's what happens:

1) Using an M-Audio keyboard, I record a Simpler drum track very precisely along with Live's click.

2) When I listen back to the track, about 10% of the notes are 'late' by a 1/16th note. So I have to edit the track and fix all the late notes.

NOTE: It is NOT my playing -- I've been doing this same thing with Reason for years with zero errors. Or is Live way more sensitive than Reason?

I've tried it with Quantization set to 1/16 and none-- makes no difference. Also, my audiocard latency is set to 10ms if it matters.

Any ideas? Thanks,
D

no idea why , but i have the same problem

Well, I have no idea why, but the MIDI record problem seems to have gone away (?). At least it's gone most of the time-- maybe the answer is to re-boot if it you find MIDI recording to be especially inaccurate. I certainly didn't make any other configuration changes. Woof.
