OK, after more googling I finally found the correct phrasing that brought me back to a thread on this forum earlier this year: https://forums.steinberg.net/t/midi-notes-recorded-ahead-of-playhead/616492/24
…And Jose7822’s advice: “Have you tried going into Devices > MIDI Port Setup and putting a checkmark on “Use System Timestamp for ‘DirectMusic’ Inputs” ?”
fixed it for me.
