| This machine rules. I will attest here and now that it works. Your setup is going to affect the quality of this machine's accuracy. Nevermind the latency compensation... if you don't have an ASIO card trying to do the compensation will be a nightmare to get sample accurate.
However, w/ my maudio asio card and my maudio midisport 2x2 and setting MSYNC to 14ms, i get sync easily. one thing you've got to remember is that we're dealing with MIDI Clock here, which is known for its design flaws & simplicity..some a random beat missed here and there may happen.
I have now finally sync'd up all my software and hardware to my drummachine, so all i have to do to make sure everything is in sync now is hit the start button on my drum machine. yay.
during the initial syncstart when you press start on your external midi clock source, there will be a short period at the begining where the latency compensation takes place. it's best to have a couple blank patterns both in buzz and your other software or external device.. but this goes the same for most software really. in cubase for instance, you don't hear any playback at all for the first 16 bars when syncing/starting up external devices with MIDI Clock.
I've yet to find a buzz machine that will send midi clock out & work.
