How do you jump from 'significatly higher' and 'Lower latency' to 'No
problem of Time precision'? It is clear to me that he meant the problem is
not as bad with USB of Firewire, not that it disolves the problem.

Are you now saying there is a problem with midi time precision?

If you are then why are you advocating this lack of precision into GMPI?
