I'm sure they would be sensitive to bad timing. But that's not the question. Would they be able to identify the recordings listed above ? Until you try it you won't know, and your claim that 2 ms of jitter 'destroys the groove' is pure conjecture. > Anyway. this crowd shouldn't be the benchmark for good music. Am I > wrong? It's not about what 'good music' is. The question is if midi jitter of 2 ms does degrade the quality of a rendering.
