Sync problem with E-RM Multiclock

Post by Enlin » Wed Aug 03, 2016 8:40 am

Hello, it's my first time posting something in a forum, i'll try to not waste anyones time but i really do need help here.

My problem: I just bought an E-RM Multiclock and i hooked a Tr-8 via midi channel 1 (changed the internal setting in the TR-8 and it get's the midi information) a MAM MB33 on channel 2 (get's the midi info as well) and a Microkorg on channel 3 which is in sync with the TR-8 and the MB33 which means i routet the midi channel settings in the Multiclock correctly.

I trigger the Multiclock through audio with the E-RM plugin and the Multiclock receives the tempo. (all good to this point)

I've set Abletons midi setting sync to the output (at least i'm guessing that you send the internal midiclock from ableton to the Multiclock and you change the midi note positions in the MC which sends the new corrected timing to my hardware). And here it get's weird. The shift buttons on the mc does nothing at all.

I've been trying and updating and setting since 3 days and it does not work at all. What's with the whole "easy to set up" thing they are bragging about?

Please can someone help. I'm at the point of guessing that it's broken. If someone could just tell me the correct Track/Sync/Remote midi settings i have to adjust in Ableton.
That would be great. Thanx in advance.

Did you put the sync on audio in ERM MultiClock Setting ( SRC Audio In ON )

don`t do that. you have the clock information from the plugin.
in Live, disable all midi routings to the MC.
(if you want to merge midi NOTE information with the audio clock, feel free to send it via external instrument)

are you sure you set the mc correctly according to the manual?
