Title: Is it possible to control and sync DAW at the same time
Post by: mrmugabi on July 28, 2020, 05:27:33 pm
I like to use the transport buttons and the knobs to control my DAW's (S1v5, MPC, Live10). I also like to sync the BSP sequencers to my DAW clock. I am having a hard time doing both. Whenever I enable both setups in any DAW. Pressing play causes a playhead loop until I disconnect or disable the BSP.

Is there anyway to get around this in any DAW. I am open to hacks and/or moderately stable experimental solutions.

Thanks

Following.  I'm running Logic Pro X, and the Beatstep Pro is synced to Logic Pro X's tempo.  MMC is off everywhere.

I can start and stop Logic from BSP *if* I'm not at measure 1.  If I'm at measure 1, I get a loop and I have to disconnect the BSP.

Recording works intermittently (again, not measure 1).  Sometimes recording will work, other times recording will start and stop, though playback will continue.

Logic has the be the master midi clock, it can not sync to external midi. It can sync to MTC but that doesn’t help here.
