MIDI notes recorded earlier than they sound

I did read through several pages of this thread before I posted, I didn’t catch the difference though. I have problem #2 for sure.

Then it would be helpful if you could do the PLONK test and report the results along with your specific hardware and ASIO setup, this could help circling down on the source of the problem (not that I think Steinberg would care, but it’s worth another try).

Also, please try the same with a different DAW (if possible) and see if the results are different.

This is absolutely ludicrous. This has nothing to do with Windows 7, it has to do completely with the Cubase software. I currently have Cubase 7.07 and 7.5 and this problem has happened to me.

Not to mention the explosion into my bum of C++ & Runtime errors where Cubase has to close unexpectedly. Coming from Steinberg this isn’t an issue with C++ or Cubase. What about the time when I was working on a project and everything was fine, and then I decided to send a group track to some reverb - BEHOLD, YOUR ENTIRE TRACKS MIDI IS NO COMPLETELY OUT OF SYNC AND NOW FORWARD IN TIME.

Another problem is that the little square that my cursor draws to highlight clips will disappear, audio will drop out, midi triggering the midi gate won’t work, random runtime errors, random C++ Visual errors, midi will just decide to play forward and not sync with the rest of track, because of what? Sending a group track to some reverb?

I have an i7 with 3.4ghz and 16gb ddr? Uad Apollo?

Someone better get off their ass and fix this, or I am going back to FL Studio.

Ehm, you do realize this is a less-than-current forum? The latest Cubase version is 7.5, that’s where maybe someone would get off their ass. Not because of a threat with FL Studio though :sunglasses:

If you read the thread more carefully you would see that this is fixed in version 7.

Hullo, OF!

I’ts been a while since I read through these pages … would this happen to be because of ASIO Guard, or is the improvement just built into the innards of version 7 itself?

Asking because I’ll be taking receipt of my new DAW (w/ C7) in the next month or so and trying to get all the ducks in a row beforehand …

Thanks!

I don’t have C7 myself but I have read several reports that there is a new control on the track which allows you to enable/disable some extra delay compensation for the track.

I have read that it works, but I have not experienced this first hand.

OK, thx OF. Maybe that’s what people are referring to, or someone else may chip in and clarify.

I am using the C7.5.1 Trial and I can report that I was recording some MIDI playing and, even with the latency set pretty high, it still recorded the notes pretty accurately (within human error, IMO). On Cubase 6.5, I used to have to set the latency much lower to get an accurate MIDI recording.

Hi Jaslan -

Do you have ASIO Guard on or off?

Thanks!

I had ASIO Guard on. But, I believe ASIO guard does not touch tracks with the moniitor on (i.e. it considers them as having a real time input source).
HTH

Thanks, jaslan!

I FOUND ONE POSSIBLE SOLUTION…Change Click Sound. I know, that is not technicaly right, but it works well for me… even for playback is relatively good :slight_smile:
