I’m so frustrated about this Midi timing issue. For a few years now it’s been messing with my ears to the point that I thought my playing was just poor! Something didn’t sit right so yesterday I did a lot tests with midi and audio and sure enough I have the same issue with the notes hitting the grid just before the metronome and I swear it’s moving other notes about too.
How did we get to 2016 with all this CPU power available etc but fail to record a midi controller in time?
I have to fix this somehow. As I’m using a keyboard controller so I guess these external midi clocks etc won’t really help the cause. I play pianos & not sequenced patterns from synths etc.
Is there any recommend hardware (sound cards, interfaces etc) that would cure this problem?
I’m currently using a Zoom R16 (think its OK) with an Axiom Air 61 (via USB) and a Korg SV1 (via USB).
Playing with various settings etc like the Timestamp Option and the ASIO Guard etc etc I have managed to get the notes closer but it’s still not good enough.
Is this literally just a case of waiting for Steinberg to respond with a fix or will any upgrades fix this??
I so badly want accurate midi recording like the old days of Atari and Win XP (I don’t remember having this problem back then)
Maybe its a 64bit thing???
