Default recorded midi is ahead by 1/32 note!

Couple of issues here.
1 A session originally recorded in 7.4 on Tiger when opened in PT8 had this problem: The drum track was being triggered live from Reason 4 (latest version) and arriving in PT via an Instrument channel.
The track was playing about one 32 note ahead of the rest of the track.
When I looked at the midi notes they were perfectly on the beat.
Now sometimes I have to delay certain VI about 10 or so milliseconds because they trigger faster than others but this was so out of whack that I had to manually shift it.

But before I did I replaced Reason with Addictive Drums. Same thing happening!!
So the midi looks correct but is triggering ahead of the beat.
I messed with Delay compensation. Went from short to long. No difference. Turned it off, no difference.

2 And this is even stranger. Today on a track started in PT8 I was recording a midi part with Omnisphere.
I played the part in and thought I was in the pocket. On playback the part was 1/32 note in front of where I played it.
So in one song the midi looks correct but plays in front and in the other I play correctly but the midi is recorded ahead of the beat and appears that way. (input quantize is turned off)

So that's some new behavior.
Anyone seen this before?
Am I missing something obvious here?
(I'll admit I'm a bad dancer but I'm usually "behind" the beat. Never forward!!!))

Check Midi real-time properties for the track and Midi offsets in the Events menu.

I have found that opening sessions from others brings in their settings and I have had them stay after moving to or creating another session.

If you don't find anything here, trash all the midi prefs with the Pro Tools prefs and database helper.

As I suspected it was a simple thing. I had changed my buffer to 1024 and that's where the problem is.
It's always the change of routine that gets you.
