I could record audio for kick, snare, hi hat and bass one after the
other and mix it to one rhythm group and additionally I could record all
instruments at the same time and send the recordings to you and you
could do the same by yourself. It's also hard to say, if there isn't
more jitter, but 4 ms. At what point starts the attack of a signal
within the ambient noise level?

At least I could record FluidSynth DSSI in unison played to the Alesis
D4 by using different -p values. I'm sure everybody would be able to
here the problem.

'Ears made of gold' (a German idiom) aren't needed to hear it.
