Loops randomly start going out of time when triggering via midi

This is a problem I had with my first S2400 and now my second.
When triggering loops with midi whether it’s gated or not, every once in a while the loop just starts going off on one as if it were triggered completely out of time. It’s a nightmare if recording a longer session as it’s pretty much guaranteed to happen. I tend to just record a bit then use that instead of the S2400 live which isn’t really ideal.
Has anyone else experienced this? Sorry if my description of the problem wasn’t great!

How are you triggering the s2400? Computer/DAW? Other hardware? USB or DIN? Need exact info.

Direct midi from Squarp Hapax, also happened with my previous Squarp Pyramid.

Not enough info… I have the same setup and it works great.

My ISLA Instruments S2400 Performance Sampler is sequenced from my Squarp Hapax Sequencer direct from Midi Output C and is powered by 230V at 50Hz in the rural outskirts of Belfast.
I believe the midi cable used is around 50cm long, maybe 1m. It is on my desk below my monitor and right next to the Hapax so neither feel lonely during these cold March days.
Used DAWless or with Ableton, Bitwig and sometimes Cubase. When used with a DAW I use an Expert Sleepers USAMO for audio clock.
My hair is a dark shade of brown, with some grey.

Ahhh ok that helps. I’m afraid though that the problem isn’t the sampler…

is it my hair?
