Song Position Pointer bug? Live 4.0.4 Windows

Post by SnackDaddy » Wed Nov 17, 2004 5:14 am

Hi,

I'm using Live 4.0.4 on Windows XP SP2.

I'm having trouble with Song Position Pointer when live is slaved to midi clock sync. When I send an SPP, Live sets its msr/beat/sub position correctly, but then when I send a continue message, Live jumps ahead by a measure or so, and thereafter is also out of phase with the beat.

I've been testing this with Midi Ox, using a very slow tempo (20bpm) to get a closer look at what's happening. Generally I trust Midi Ox a lot (maybe I shouldn't?). I also get the same kind of odd behavior when I sync Live to my own program that acts as sync master.

I saw a bug posting in the Live 4 beta forum about SPP, not sure if it's the same problem?

Anyone see something like this, or have any ideas?

Cheers,
Michael
