simular to that of the hardware drummachines or fruityloops software. I've been searching but could not find any.

You won't until the new event system is a fact. With green data it is very unreliable to build something that needs to have accurate timing.

I know this is an old thread and I have looked around for more recent info but not found what i need. Anyway, accurate timing for making a step or pattern based sequencer is very important for me - basically needs to be in synthmaker before I can use it for the sorts of projects I have in mind. Is there any idea when the timing will be improved?

[edit] actually another solution would be if SM can count the number of samples from the beginning of a piece when run as a vst. Is that information available? number of beats is not accurate enough. Eventually I would like to write some standalone apps as well

thanks, Gregh

New event system is a v2 feature so probably not for a while I guess (devs?).

But for an accurate emulation of a typical drummer, the current system is just fine. 😀

A few rules keep this a friendly place. You agree to them once.

Shown next to what you post, here and in the app. It doesn’t have to be your real name: 3–24 lower-case letters, digits or _ (capitals become lower case, spaces become _).

    Then your post goes up straight away.

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
