Yes :).

I can't say it today, now I do some office work. I had the impression
that it might vary. Sometimes the virtual drum sampler and sometimes the
standalone drum sampler was played earlier, I need to check this ASAP.
For older tests with my USB MIDI device it was exactly that way, that
jitter had positive and negative delay. At least the recorded waveforms
of external MIDI equipment (when I used USB MIDI, now I'm using PCI
MIDI), were recorded by Qtractor, before theoretically the MIDI event
was send ;). Note! Qtractor had no latency compensation, all recorded
audio of external MIDI instruments should have (positive) delay, but
negative delay.

PS: Today I just listened to similar sounds and didn't notice if there
was negative delay or what drum sample might be played before the other,
I just noticed that they were not played in unison.
