I'm also experiencing this problem, but found a quick fix - "track delay" in Ableton Live. This is not really a good fix when coming to recording, because I still need to edit the recordings, so that everything really is in sync after recording. But, it works when playing live!
To bad this
is a problem though! And if it's a known problem, somebody should have made a deal with ex. Inner Clock, so that it came with the box!
Anyway, love the A4 machine !
