How to play drum roll properly? about midi-unreal HOT 6 OPEN

I am considering creating a separate thread for the midi playback. Also can you test in Windows Media Player to see if same effect.

In Windows media player drumroll is playing correctly. As I see it, the problem comes from the frequency of the Unreal tick, which is not only too long, but also variable and unpredictable (FPS drop etc). I can imagine only two ways to do it: run midi processor in a separate thread or pre-fetch upcoming events and somehow send them to midi output with a delay. But I don't know if any of those are feasible.

I added a option to have a separate thread so FPS drop wont be affected

Hi @Geromatic - where is this option and how can I enable it? I'm struggling to get MIDI to run in time. Thanks!

there is a option [enabled by default] on the start node to allow background processing..it is located in the Midi Processor Component

Thanks @Geromatic, but I can't see this in 4.17 after updating Midi Asset to FileVersion 3, VersionName 2.46. The start node doesn't show any options and the processor component has nothing background-related in its settings. Have I updated correctly?

Cheers!
