Re: midi timing erratic even with click on LE 7.3
If you've done everything in the General Troubleshooting thread and are still having the problem, most likely it's due to the unsupported integrated graphics card, which is known to cause this sort of thing:

Re: midi timing erratic even with click on LE 7.3
Thanks for replying Tech support,
Im running Pro Tools 7.3 with the latest patch for this version I havent changed anything to do with bios, the only plugins are Expand and Sample Tank that both came with LE (Sample Tank came with Version 6.8?, the original Of PT Bundled with the MBox2). Im using the MBox2 mini. I havent made any extra changes to my system, beyond for the prerequisites in the quick start guide. I havent done this as there was nothing I read which suggested a possible solution to this problem. My laptop is new, originally came with Vista, Ive used the XP drivers supplied by Dell for this computer to "downgrade" so to be able to run Pro Tools. With so many different problem resolution techniques suggested on the website I dont have the time try every one and I didnt have to do much to solve the same problem with my last computer. Ive ran Sandra on my computer and have supplied just the general specs below. SiSoftware Sandra System Model : Dell Inc.

Re: midi timing erratic even with click on LE 7.3
By "secondary drive" does this mean a physical second drive or a second partition? My machine is a laptop which I doubt has room for a second drive and as USB drives are a problem.
This will mean I have to buy a firewire drive, is there any guarantee this will solve the problem? Have there been other cases where the situation we are describing has been solved taking this action? The recording and playback of audio is fine, its just the midi notes that playback erratically. I appreciate the suggestion and yes my other computer does have a second dedicated drive, it initially had this problem too, but the problem was solved a different way (its killing me that I cant remember how I solved it). |

Re: midi timing erratic even with click on LE 7.3
While not supported by Digidesign, eSATA drives with an eSATA ExpressCard could be an answer to a second, external drive. They certainly have a faster transfer speed than USB or FireWire as they are basically plugged into the MB controller like an internal drive.
Cheers,

Re: midi timing erratic even with click on LE 7.3
I have the exact same problem. I think this is something wrong with sending data to click - 'midi in' light in click plug-in window. When I run TL Metro, without linked to session tempo, everything it's all right. But when I use TL Metro, linked to transport+tempo, or DigiRack Click / Midi instrument Click.....

Re: midi timing erratic even with click on LE 7.3
Yes, and nothing didn't fix the problem. I removed PT and all preferences, re-install and download last cs7 update. My computer is certified by digidesign.
