**CorOS Version:** 1.3.3

**Describe your issue:**  
When sending midi messages for patch changes from ableton, there is noticeable latency compared to switching using the foot switches, meaning the patches don’t change at quite the right time

I am able to compensate by manually finding the sweet spot for the message to be sent, but if this is resolvable it would make programming for live shows a lot easier.

**Steps to reproduce your issue:**

1. Step 1- Create a midi region and send a patch change message at bar 2
2. Play guitar whilst the patch changes and see how tight the change is

**I expected this to happen:**  
I expect the patch to change as close as possible on the bar.

**I have tried the following things:**

- I have tried making the region start earlier in order to compensate, but it gets a little fiddly with trial and error.
