Posted: Thu Jan 19 2012 12:26 Sync MT2 to midi clock...? |
 |
Hey. It is quite many years ago I did this, but I am very very sure that I synced MT2 to an external midi clock. This was before the Rewire function was added...
But somehow I can't seem to figure out how I did this back then.. Anyone got any idea?
Thanks in advance

Interesting.
what was the midi clock source at first in this case?
Was that "external" thing just another program linked to MT2, or it was a hardware MIDI device wired to MT2 via MIDI port?

that sounds very bitter. I wonder if thats the influence of my answers in this forum. ...or who caused this? |

Back then I used a midi loop back software, but it's no difference. For MT2 it's an ordinary midi port, likewise for Cubase.
This time I'm going to sync two computers together, using Cubase on one of them and MT2 on the other..
.. and no, I'm not bitter at all. I'm a musical genius, didn't you know? |

Now that I think of it, I quite clearly remember Yannick told me that MT2 only sent midi sync clock, but could not recieve any data from other master clocks. But I can't really find anything there either  |

hehee, thats something new. Cubase to cubase via timecode I have tried and it works, but MT2 to Cubase and with midi clock ?... Well, looking forward to read about the result and how you did it, it can interest many others too.
How you would set the MT2 to understand sync signal (and which one?).
On other way around (MT2 as clock source) it would work, but
well.

wait wait, midi sync clock? how this signal sending was activated (and so, its destination port assigned)? was this only with an older (2.5.0 or similar) version?
so far when I made midi output port dump analysis back then, MT2 sent out nothing except notedata and CC related data. |

It was probably with MT2.5, yes. But I don't see the reason for removing such function? |

hm, so far I see only this kind of solution for wiring together 2 computeres if you want to have MT2 in one computer -- you wire together via MIDI cable (and midiclock as sync signal) 2 computers which have Cubase in it, and in one of the cubase you have MT2 then via ReWire.
What are you actually exactly trying to do? It all can be also in only one computer if you want to have MT2 and Cubase together. |

Ofcourse I know that I can Rewire it with one computer. |
