Octatrack sync issues with Mutant Brain

Curious if anyone has their Octatrack consistently playing nice with their Mutant Brain? And if so, could you share your MB settings?

Every few times I hit play on the Octatrack, the clock is a half beat or so off on the MB. It is totally inconsistent as to when it happens. The clock seems stable, just off by a noticeable amount ?

So if I have a click sample running 4/4 on the Octatrack and then a 1/4 clock on the MB driving my BIA or other VCO (with fast attack), the sounds are slightly off. But not always! (Checking it all with my Mordax).

Any other gear I have connected via Midi to the Octatrack is rock solid in timing (I use a quadra thru).

I notice it more with higher BPMs (over 100) When it's really slow the issue seems to be somewhat mitigated.

I'm thinking about ditching the MB for a mmMidi (as I have a PNW downstream from MB anyways) but no clue if that would fix anything.

Anyone have any thoughts?
