I've got an R-8 II drum box, which I'll time at some stage. I've not
used it for a while, but as I recall it has some audible slop (I'd
guess around the 5-7 msec mark).

I suppose I could export and upload a chunk of the recording as an
MP3, with an indication of where I can hear it - it would be
interesting to know how subjective this is.
