Issue - MPC One midi sync out to Live 10, via Scarlett 6i6 2nd gen

[philphil]

Hi guys,

I'm having a small issue and been looking in the forum as well as manuals etc, to no avail.

I'm Syncing out my MPC One midi to Live 10 via a Scarlett 6i6 (2nd gen) via midi. I really like that set up, MPC = midi out, which controls Ableton as a sound module it's like a mega-MPC ready for production.

Everything works as planned = track1 on mpc One set to midi channel 1 syncs out to Abes track 1 set to midi channel 1 as a drum rack playing sounds as I bang the pads, etc, and so on with track 2 = channel 2, etc... whether I play or record, happy days.

However, when I repeteadly hit "play" on the One starting a sequence, which should restart the beat as soon as I hit play, the beat (midi or audio issue, not sure) starts lagging and eventually syncs back after 1 second, "elastic like" which is a bit annoying as I want something tight. Does this sound familiar to anyone?

Not a deal breaker as I don't use this live but I used to have this set up with MPC 1000 syncing out to Live 8 with a Fast track Ultra and it was super tight.

Anyone with this setup or similar could shed some light on this issue?

Thanks in advance.

Figured it out.
Syncing out the One straight to Ableton live 10 isn’t the best way to do it. You need to put the mpc in controller mode and work with the mpc software, which you sync out to Ableton.

Was not aware that in this case, mpc one and software do the same exact thing.
