KP3 as midi master - drifting?

Hello,
Im considering to but a KP3 (maybe + version) to use as a looper midisynced to drummachines etc. Now I read that KP3 samples drift after a while when in midi slave mode.
Is it the same when using KP3 as the master? will the sampleslot loops stay in sync, not drifting compared to other machines, if I use KP3 as midi master?

Thanks!

Yes they still drift unfortunately.
You can sequence the samples from an external sequencer or drum machine, but that does detract from the tactile flow of the machine,when using loops on the fly. It's ok with one shots triggered by external seq.
