Ableton Forum

Hi there,

I have a problem: When I connect my drumcomputers (TR-09, TR8, Arturia Drumbrute) to Ableton with the usb cable OR Midi cable it always starts to get out of sync after I add some plugins in my Live set.

So, this also happens when I use the midi output on my soundcard. I connect the drumcomputer, get it in sync with the 'midi clock sync delay' compared to the metronome for each device. For so far everything goes ok, but then when I start to work and make a song it always get's out of sync.

Is there something what I can do to this? It looks like ableton is not automatically recalibrating the midi delay.

I'm Using a late 2013 macbook with 16gb Ram and i7 processor, so this should be more then enough.

Hope you guys can help me .

Kind regards, Mathijs Smit

In my experience, I never had solid sync with anything over usb.. I spent the money on a MOTU microlite and now it's amazing.

(and ya, previously I noticed plugin latency seemed to throw off sync)
