Perhaps you could make a stereo recording, the left channel recording the
mic'ed 'tick' of hitting the trigger, the right channel recording the audio
coming from the speakers? You'd say e.g. a loud hi-hat should be recognisable
enough.

That would mean my hardware synth (the yamaha vl70-m), connected *directly*
(no PC involved), causes a huge latency (20-26ms) making it utterly unusable
for making a groove - and not just slightly, but by a large margin.
That *could* be (as it's not a drum synth), but it'd be kind of surprising.
You keep
repeating this, but so far I haven't seen a shred
of verifyable evidence to support this claim.
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.
Let's keep this thread restricted to the situation with only ALSA MIDI in
routed directly to ALSA MIDI OUT - it's getting hard to keep track of what's
going on :).
