Hi,

I'm a new (proud! :-)) machinedrum user and having problems getting  
the MD sync to Ableton Live (or Logic Pro, tried both, no difference).  
The MD is set to external sync and the software is sending MIDI clock,  
should all be fine. I'm using clips in Live with single midi notes to  
trigger the MD's patterns, MD is inserted as external instrument plug- 
in. It doesn't work well - I always hear flams at the beginning of a  
new pattern cycle/change.
So timing-wise it's unfortunately completely unusable.. :-/
I tried adjusting all kinds of latency/compensation values like MIDI  
clock delay, track delay, etc. but nothing seems to really help.

Is anybody using such a setup successfully? Or has any idea...?


greetings,

Tom
