LP midi timing issue

Hi all. Just got my Little Phatty shipped out to Australia recently and am really enjoying it. There is only one problem that’s really bugging me, and I don’t know if it’s something I can fix by adjusting a setting somewhere either with the LP or cubase.

Basically, when I hook the LP up via midi (using a Steinberg USB midi interface & Cubase 5.0) to my sequencer and play back a perfectly quantized midi pattern, the LP plays it back with slight timing discrepancies. I’m not talking about latency here, but timing that is intermittently wrong, a note staggered here or there, whereas my JP-8000 plays it back with 100% perfect timing, as it should be.

While I bought the LP primarily for playing rather than sequencing mechanically it would be nice to be able to play back a sequence in time if necessary. Can anyone shed light on this? :confused:

Hmm, maybe I should contact Moog about this… not sure if I would be wasting their time with something obvious though.

this is a known issue as has already been fixed. if you haven’t already, download the new-ish OS (1.02d i think?). otherwise there’s going to be a brand new OS update with a PLETHORA of added features as well coming out this month. :slight_smile:

OK, I’ll look into that. Thanks for the reply CTRLSHFT :wink:

Let me know if the MIDI timing is better for you with OS 1.02d… I am very curious. Email me, amos (at) moogmusic.com with your observations. Thanks!
