Ok why is this?
I can hit record in a play slot and record all my midi notes just fine, But if i say create a empty 2 bar clip and try to record a live loop in OVERDUB mode only some notes get recorded? I hear all the notes durring the record but not all are printed. It's like a global bar qauntize is on. My record quantize is off.. Any ideas?

Ok it gets more complicated.

Let me explain what i am doing..
I have drum triggers going into a Alesis D5 and the midi out going into Live.
As i said it records everything i do if i just hit record on a clip. But misses most notes in overdub mode..
To make things more messed up if i try the same test with my midi controller keyboard it works fine..
So the only difference i can see is the note duration.
The note length coming out of the D5 is really short. (as it should be it's a drum hit).
My theory-
OVERDUB mode has a bug with recording short note durations.
Can anyone confrim?

Anyone have this missing notes problem?

Could be that the clip is looping and over writing notes with silence on the second pass.

Nope that was the 1st thing i checked..

nonchalant bump..=)
