  • Identical MIDI Tracks > Quantized 16ths > 100 x Bars / Single Pass
  • Simultaneous port capture > GridLock II shown in RED
  • Real-Time DAW-generated events captured using a 50MS/s hardware logic analyser
  • Jitter quantified by calculating the average interval between sequential events across the capture period and measuring how much each individual interval deviates from this average
  • Intervals @ 100BPM > 1 x 16th [ 4PPQ ] = 150000µs

DAW Specific Tests

  • Real-Time DAW-generated Clock and Events captured using a 50MS/s hardware logic analyser

  • Ports listed in a test group are running simultaneously

  • Jitter is quantified by calculating the average interval between sequential events across the capture period and measuring how much each individual interval deviates from this average

  • Intervals @ 100BPM > 1 x Clock Pulse [ @ 24PPQ ] = 25000µs / 1 x 16th [ 4PPQ ] = 150000µs

  • Max. Skew shows the largest Port < > Port offset over the capture
