Live and ER-1 = timing drift = HELP?!

Post by jer_mcclain » Wed Feb 19, 2003 4:31 pm

Anyone use this combo? I have the ER-1 slaved to the Live clock and after about four bars things start to drift, after eight things are flamming pretty severely. It seems like Live is falling behind. I am using a TiBook 400/512 10.2.4 with an Maudio Quattro. Any thoughts on this. I tried messing with the latency but that doesn't seem to have any effect.

Use the er1 as the master. Check the bug forum - plenty of discussion about live midi clock problems there.

Hi paraclude,

This is a known bug in Live 2.0.1 and 2.0.2, the (midi-)clock is drifting offrom the clips :( do like i do, wait for the bugfix in 2.0.3.

You better don't use the ER-1 as master because it has a very unstable midi-clock. Wel ofcause it is not forbidden to try this, but i'm not sure if the result will be what you expect.

Peace,

ER-1's analoge feel

Actuely this unstable clock has the perpose to give the ER-1 that analoge feel, what is good, but makes it unusable as master for software.

Peace.
