Beat skipping around from internal clock jitters

[Cgreeniv]

Ok so I have a simple 4 bar loop playing. When I adjust the filter cutoff knob and the resonance knob while the beat is looping I get jitters. It doesn’t happen right away but after about a few seconds of adjustments, it will kick in. Its pretty consistent. I have no external gear connected just the S2400 and my headphones.

Are your samples larger than 2MB? Because if so, that’s why.

I posted about this here a while back:

Clock stability

Anyone else notice any instability in the clock? Noticed this again last night, I’m talking just using a few internal sounds, a drum break, an 808, a pad, and a stab in one sequenced loop. The loop tends to sound slightly different/ not identical every time round. Like the bass would land in a slightly different spot each time, or the break would sound like it’s too fast (meaning the sequence would have slowed down by a fraction for a moment). I had noticed this before when multi-tracking into…

I should add that even if I just had a sample over 2MB in the project folder, it would cause instability and dropping notes, not sure I mentioned that in the thread, my memory is terrible heh.

I always thought samples streaming from disk would have issues compared to loading samples into ram. Common sense.
Maybe I’m wrong.
