That said, I do not know why this occurs.

I've noticed it myself and always assumed it was buffers loading at the very beginning.

Try this and see if you hear the same thing.

1. Start a New File
2. Change the style to Blank.Sty Blank 4/4 Even 8th.

You should have a song with no chords and only a standard drum kit.

If you generate the song, you might be able to subtly hear the difference in each lead in drum count.

Since I am using the standard 1-3-1-2-3-4 count in, I hear the 1st count having some reverb and it sounds like it is in the background. The 3rd count sounds OK. The next sequence of 1-2-3-4, I hear 1 and 3 very slightly lower then counts 2 and 4.

It is not my ears as the waveforms from 2 different programs recorded the hits and the levels are different.

One is from Total Recorder and the other is from Adobe Audition.

It's not a big problem at all but it is there.
