>People --
Having unhappy time with midi lately... These days I run Paris and
Cubase SX on separate machines, slaving SX to Paris via ADAT out to
RME in, so this would be a non-Paris topic, I guess... Except as it
possibly relates to sync issues...
Anyway -- Mostly work with VSTi's in SX, which are peachy fine, but
still like to use a couple of older external modules some times, and
that's where unhappines creeps in: Seems to take SX a loooong time to
lock (like 8-10 bars or more) and there's still a bit of drift (I
think) once it does. Alas. My question is: is it the funky older
2x2 usb midi interface? The RME Digi 9652? Some funky preference
setting buried within Cubase's manymanymany menus? Maybe I need more
zinc? (I do need more zinc.)
Seems like such a caveman problem to be having these days -- I mean,
people had this nailed in 1987 -- where did we go wrong? Any solid

>Hi Neil,
All my testing was done with Cakewalk Pro Audio 9, and the Audio being played
back was in PARIS, not in Cakewalk. Systems that do MIDI and audio together
may fare better.
Also, just playing back tracks didn't bog the system down enough to mess
with MIDI timing. It was DX effects (I was testing with 16 DB Audio compressors)
that seemed to shitcan the sync.
