OK, testing done, but it seems the problem I have might be different from yours after all. 🙁

The strange problem I remembered (and now confirmed) is that I have trouble getting the first input note recorded at all if it is played close to the start of a bar.
This happens only when a new sequence is created by the recording – NOT when I record with a sequence already present on the track and the recorded notes get added to it. (Frits, if you need any more info, just tell me once you get back!)

Other than that, I didn’t notice any timing-related problems… If and when the first played note was recorded, it was on time. 😕

Does it happen regardless of whether you ‘overdub’ an already existing MIDI sequence or let Podium create one while recording?

did various ways of recording ( but allways with LOOP ON if that matters ) :
did a redording on the first run of the looped region – let the loop pass one time ( to create a clip ) before recording into the existing clip – a mix of both
sometimes it happens sometimes not – i can’t track it down to a certain preference setting ( time stamp from driver on / off ) / plug in / input device

on a side note : sometimes while recording in loop mode a second clip is created when i don’t input midi notes for a short time

EDIT : this happens only while recording midi input from a physical device – this does not happen when i record the midi output of a plug in !!!

EDIT2 : switching LOOP ON or OFF does NOT matter – recording a new clip or overdubbing an existing clip does NOT matter – piece of crap this is!!!

is this only me???
does nobody else suffer from this issue???

So the problem you reported in that other topic, is the exact same problem you still have today?

yes, some hardware has changed ( soundcard / MIDI input devices ) but the issue is still the same …

just changed version of Podium – drivers ( M-Audio 2496 ) are up to date – drivers of MPD18 too ( which i used when i faced the issue recently ) – happened in earlier versions too – it’s hard to replicate – issue comes and goes – NB the note IS recorded but way too early so i have to quantize it in order to get it into the loop …

Thanks for joning Frits, i read about the MCU ( only ) support -this was ment to be a call for users sharing their experience – Behringer BCF supports MCU and so does the Korg NanoKontrol2 – does anybody use any of these 2?
