Check live's midi preferences and make sure you are only sending sync out on one of the motu's midi ports. I don't have the same motu device but, on my motu midi express I have had the same thing happen before when sending sync/clock out on multiple ports of the motu.

All the roland stuff says MIDI clock source If MIDI clock is being input to the MIDI IN connector or the USB port, the TR-8’s tempo will automatically synchronize to MIDI clock (default). * If MIDI clock is being simultaneously input from the MIDI IN connector and from the USB port, the USB port ta...

Sounds good. I did forget to mention though - Make sure your connected devices are not send midi clock on their outs either - that could cause a mess too as that would get jumbled with the clock Ableton is trying to send out. Standalone you'd only want one device sending clock (TR-8 as you mentioned...

Not exactly sure what's going on but erratic BPM sounds like midi clocks are getting spit out and combined and spit out some more causing some midi loops. First off - with the XT there are two groups of presets. The factory ones which are pre-wired and the user ones which can be freely routed using ...

In my experience with the Elektron boxes (or anything with an external sequencer) I always found it easier to just use an audio track not the external instrument. I always ran into problems trying to bounce/freeze external sequencers with the external inst plugin. I always had better success with on...

What I do is name all my presets starting with the * character (example- *Pulse Pad, *Kick Squasher). That way all my presets appear at the top of the preset lists or when doing a search type that character and only your presets should appear. Doesn't delete the factory library but does provide a bi...

I had problems here. Granted my MBP is a bit old now (mid 2007 2.2 C2D) but was having the audio glitches/cpu spike problem. In Logic i would get random CPU spikes that were accompanied by audio glitches/static sounds. I would get the same audio glitches in Live just the CPU meter wasn't visually sp...

I'm hoping and praying it doesn't require iLok...that would stink.

Waves no longer uses iLok for it's copy protection so you're in luck.

Since they are currently running the 25% off on just about everything (packs/upgrades and what not) plus including a free upgrade to 9 when it is released I doubt it'll get much cheaper but you never know. Best bet might be an online retailer who has it marked down and look out for a coupon code or ...

Any Beta tester can confirm?

I can confirm you still can't run plugins while in rewire - that also includes M4L too.

One thing I'm not seeing is the difference between Suite 9 box/download. They were different prices in the past and the only way to get the large sample libraries before were through the boxed version. Maybe these cheaper upgrade paths (buy 8 and get 9) are only for the download version which will ...

Not to confuse your choice and but have you considered the Mackie 1640i? I was in the same boat about a year ago and was between the Zed R16 & the Mackie. I also briefly considered one of the PreSonus but was looking for an analog mixer. In the end I went with the Mackie1640i and couldn't be hap...

Can't speak for the DT25 but I do have a Blackstar HT-5 Combo which is 5 watts. It is definitely too loud to crank all the way up in my house in my small studio room. Someone downstairs would be complaining if they were trying to watch tv. Would be really interested to hear about the DT25 though bec...

I was wondering the same thing. Very interesting looking 106.
