precise loops

i got a problem i dont get solved.
the situation is: i have a beat on my physical drum-machine
(boss dr202).
then i want to play a loop over the beat. the loop is on my
computer (programm Peak LE 4 G4+).
now i have an index that tells me how many seconds 4
measures of any bpm-rate between 1 and 500 is.
i take a look at the index and cut the loop so that it
should fit the bpm. for example a 4.36364 seconds long loop
for 110 bpm.
but its just not precise enough, soon loop and beat dont fit
anymore.
what do i do?

Are you just playing the loop or is it MIDI-triggered to the
Boss? I'm not very good at MIDI, so I can't tell you how to
do it, but I think that might be the case.

I really have no idea. I'm currently trying to set up my 707
through the midi port on my Evolution usb-keyboard, so I'm
in the learning phase. my best bet is to have a sequencer
where you can loop the audiofile and send MIDItriggers to
the drummachine at the same time. I was looking through the
prefs on my Peak program and it doesn't seem to be able to
sync outboard gear.
