MIDI recorded part different from what i played.

[Mamass]

Dear DP users, hello to all, this is my first post.

I have an issue while recording MIDI (keybords) parts along with audio.
The MIDI recorded parts are different from what i played and are "off beat".

The projet is a drum/bass/guitars session. It has not being recorded using a clic, the tempo follows some variations. A tempo has been defined in the project as a start tempo reference for the drummer.

I'm trying to record some MIDI keyboard parts on top of the audio, but when i listen to what i just recorded, my MIDI parts are off beat, different from what i just played, as if the software automatically placed some notes according to a defined tempo grid (or something like this, i'm not really sure about the reason of this issue).

Does anybody know about a solution to this problem ?

Thank you very much in advance.

From a prior thread:

I had something similar happen several months ago and called Tech Support- they said to go to Preferences/Play & Record and either check or un-check (depending on whether it's checked or not) the "Sync Recorded MIDI to Patch Thru" button - this fixed it for me. I hope it works for you!

Try it. I bet you will find the "Sync Recorded MIDI to Patch Thru" button is checked, and that un-checking it will cure what ails you.

If you use a small enough Audio Buffer, this feature can help you record better-timed tracks using VIs, but with a large buffer, results are rarely useful.
