Latency with drone

[maltin]

Hello,

I just purchase The NDLR and love it, but I'm noticing the done is out of time from the other parts. 

Instead of starting on the "1" downbeat it always triggers on "&".  I've tried to muck around with the Drone Trigger options, but nothing seems to fix the issue. I figure that with the five dots and four completely filled boxes, I should get the drone to trigger on each beat. Instead, it is syncopated on the "&". I record four parts into a DAW and was able to confirm that motifs 1 & 2 and the pad all trigger properly and it is the drone that's out.

Also, I understand if only the right half of the boxes are filled in, the done should syncopate. I can confirm that I'm seeing the syncopated behavior with the boxed completely filled.

Do you have any advice on how to correct this issue?

Hey Mark, Let's see if we can figure out what's going on and see if we can sort this out for you. I just took a look at mine and can confirm that when I have 5 dots and 4 filled solid I am getting drones on the 1,2,3 and 4 beats of the bar, as expected so let's see if we can get your's to do so. First you mentioned recording in the DAW can you confirm that you were recording the midi, or was it just audio? If it was just audio, then do me a favor and just confirm for me that there's not some kind of long attack to the sound, so we can rule that out, and try recording the midi, just so we can confirm the issue visually. 

Provided we are still dealing with an issue after the above tests,
Try:
*power cycling the device and see if the problem persists. 
*update the firmware. (link here with instructions: https://conductivelabs.com/download/ )
Let me know what you find and whether any of these solve the issue and I'll see if Steve has any other ideas. 
Cheers,

Hi Jesse,
Thanks for confirming on your end. I recorded the midi. I was trying to figure out if there was a problem with a synth, so I wanted to analysis the data directly. I'll double check my firmware to see if it is the latest (I think it is). One thing that comes to mind is that I am currently connecting it via DIN to my iconnectivity mioXM interface. I don't see how this would only impact one of the four parts, but it is a variable that should be removed. I'll try to connect the NDLR directly to the computer via USB to see if I get the same behavior and report back. 

Thank you so much for your help.
