Electribe EMX midi clock issue
Posted: Wed May 30, 2012 8:10 am
Hi guys,
I want Ableton live to sync to my Electribe EMX which basically works. Beside the unstable bpm clock (is there a solution for this? can ableton live be forced to only ise whole numbers) which bumps around the Electribe's bpm I have a more frustating problem.
When I press start on the EMX, the bpm in Ableton bumps after half a second to more than 5 bpm over the orginal number. For example, I have the emx set to 120bpm and press start. After half a second I have 125 and then 123. After two seconds the bpm calms down. So when I want to synch a clips to my electribe, it sounds like shit.
I do not think that this problem is related to latency since it only occurs by pressing the start button. Normally, the clock sync works ok.
I am a bit angry since the Electribe, no matter if master or slave, does usually a great when it comes to bpm synch. I had several devices synched to it and it worked flawlessy.
