"Ruth Styles" posted in another thread about an issue she was getting recording audio into cubase, and I mentioned that a friend of mine was getting a similar kind of problem.

Well I've been round to the friend's place to take another look and it appears that it isn't the same problem ruth was getting.

In a nutshell, she's getting timing problems recording any kind of midi data. Actual live play is fine, but once cubase sx is in record mode, the timing of the notes is always out. I was concerned they may be some kind of issue with the midi interface, but this timing problem happens even when it is the midi output of a VSTI being recorded.. (i.e. No physical midi interface is being used, everything is being done internally by the PC)

e.g. She uses Steinberg GrooveAgent, which has a mode for outputting the midi data of its "virtual drummer" to a cubase midi track. When you set up GA, and hit record, you hear the instrument start twice quickly and then play. On reviewing the recorded midi data, its out of time, some notes are missing etc.

I've checked all of the settings for latency, midi preroll etc. that are available in cubase and nothing seems to cure the "double start" problem..

Her system is built round a standard DAW setup I've been doing for people successfully for a couple of years now (no other friend has had this problem). Cubase SX and update patches to V1.0.6 have been uninstalled, most stable STAudio drivers have been reinstalled, all windows xp tweaks examined and re-examined..

I haven't done a complete rebuild yet... but now I'm thinking there's a *rare* chance the STAudio DSP24 card itself could be faulty with some kind of intermittant timing fault..

Anyone got any thoughts? Mebbe some other SX midi setting I've missed?
