Midi delay on all tracks

Hi Simon, Hi everyone,

My nome is slaved to Ableton live 12 on mac
I have -12,9ms compensation

The thing is that all my midi tracks are "off the grid" regarding the audio compensation.
I tried to compensate in ableton midi setting and on track delay but it doesn't change anything.

What I want it to have my audio on time and the midi datas on the grid so that I can share my projects with other people.

Is that doable?

Thanks you!

Guillaume

Bonjour Guillaume

I'm not sure I fully understand. If everything is off the grid, how did you come up with the -12.9ms?

Hi Simon,

I don't understand either.

My audio is perfect on sync.

When I record midi :
- the notes are late when the "keep latency" button is ON
- the notes are early when the "keep latency" button is OFF

When I go to Ableton Midi setting,when I enter some latency setting compensation it won't have an effect ; I can't adjust the midi latency.

Please find the link showing this behaviour : https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/ ... sp=sharing


Best,

Bonjour Guillaume

Ahh I see.

What you’re seeing is normal, audio and MIDI go through different channels in Ableton, so they end up with different latency. The U-SYNC shift slider can help you get MIDI notes right on the grid, but if you adjust it, your audio recording will move off the grid instead.
Unfortunately, it’s not possible to have both audio and MIDI perfectly on the grid at the same time with the current version of U-SYNC. You’ll need to choose whether you want your audio or your MIDI to be on the grid for sharing projects.

Hi Simon,

Thanks for your response and reactivity!

That would be an amazing update for U-SYNC ;)

Have a great day
