Duplicated here now after switching to MME.

Looks like the "1" is being skipped here, after the countin.

Reads, "234,234..."

Tried entering other latency values.

Options -> MIDI/Audio window, BB had automatically derived a setting of 488mS on this old laptop - and the met and visual is off like yours.

But I know this setup well, tried setting my latency manually to 188mS, which is what I remember from much past usage.

And at 188mS, the countin is all there and rock solid as it should be.

So this is a bug, alright, something in that automatic setting, BB threw up a message window the first time I visited the Latency block that said something about the Latency being derived automatically when using a DXi synth - but it isn't working correctly.

So I ignored that and manually set my Latency figure and now all is working as it should with the numbers and metronome using MME.

I use the old machinist's Rule of Halves to find a good Latency value in the least time. That narrows it down a bit easier than guesswork, but does take a bit of trial and error, revisiting until the Latency nails it.

That should get you fixed in the meantime, but this is a bug, certainly.

The bug must lie somewhere in that Automatic derivation of the Latency figure.
