[RWP] slaving external sequencer to Reaper's clock

[Chris Belle]

Just for funnies, did you try any other piece of gear just to isolate if 
there might be a buffering issue with the ts?

How about another audio interface, do you get the same results?

Or another midi interface if you have one available?

I had a buffering issue with an old roland unit which used to choke on 
thick midi data even internally with it's own drive, but this sounds 
like that's not the problem.

Also, you could try another daw to see if the same thing happens with 
it, then this would maybe isolate the hardware as the culprit, or at 
least tell you reaper isn't the fly in the ointment.

That's all my poor brain can think of comming off a serious 2 day 
migraine 'grin'.

However, there is some latency between when Reaper sends out MTC and the sequencer starts playing. Probably about 50MS or so. So, the audio is always way ahead of the sequencer. I found some boxes that look like they are supposed to do midi offset latency stuff, played with numbers, and never got anywhere. Unchecked boxes for reset pitch and a couple of other things, which also didn't do much. I can manually comp for latency after recording, but I'd rather not do that if I didn't have to. This is old midi gear from 1993, so there are no latency options as there are for some newer stuff. Anyone have ideas?
