>I'll give an example - you have your PC with $DAW_OF_CHOICE running and plug in $MIDI_2_CONTROLLER to USB and enable a track and hit record, play your stuff, and stop. When you play it back, unless the cosmic forces are exceptionally on your side, it will not sound the same as when you played it. It's subtle and sometimes ignored or even desirable, but it's there. I've never encountered this with any modern system; I've been sequencing from the early 90s on Atari, still doing it now, and it makes up most of my (varied) day job - plus recording, etc. I've done tests of my own and not found anything measurable (I was an instrument technician in a nuclear facility before turning to music, FTR). There were definitely issues with early DAWs (Cubase Audio springs to mind), but I've not found anything in the modern era. Care to share some measurable results? I'm interested in what the problem is.
