Midronome Community

Hi :) Thanks for asking here - I'm assuming you're the one who sent me an email as well. As I wrote in my email, yes I believe it would work fine - I have a Keystep I regularly use for testing and no issues so far. ​ Maybe someone else would answer here, I know quite a few people from the Midronome ...

Interesting thoughts, you're not the first one to ask about it either :D It seems there are no official request about it in the Feature requests forums, so I am moving this topic there. Just FYI, this behavior comes from the very early days of the Midronome, my thoughts were that a masterclock shoul...

That is very strange indeed. Are you sure the only thing which has changed is the Android version? Can you try with other USB devices, for example an audio interface which has some MIDI ports?

Cheers
Simon

Hi! :) Well that's an interesting setup :D Right now the Midronome will not sync to incoming MIDI Clock. If you can, I would generally recommend rearranging the setup and making the Midronome is the master, it can only benefit your setup. The Midronome's master clock is very precise, while if it was...

I like that - no extra option and pretty safe for the user

Thanks for posting here. It's an interesting point - my main reason for disabling long sysex messages is because they will for sure disturb the clock. But maybe that's an acceptable behavior, thinking nothing important will be happening while long sysex messages are sent (typically for updates, conf...

Let me add here that a reason for this feature could be the Linn Drum, which requires 48ppq.

Hi

Yes you can connect a MIDI Thru box to any of the 2 MIDI outputs on the Midronome.

Simon

Thank you for the suggestion! Your approach is very interesting, though very unique as well. Implementing this would be very easy, though if I ever implement it it will definitely be an option-free feature as it would otherwise clutter the device. The problem is I doubt many people would actually us...

Interesting thoughts, I'll definitely keep it all in mind when implementing that feature, in particular the reset input. Thank you very much for sharing

Just FYI, different speeds is already a thing on the Midronome, just look at the An.1 and An.2 settings

Simon

Hi :) I think what you hearing is not the sound of the plugin (though it sounds slightly like it), but the buzz resulting of a ground loop in the audio circuit. This is a well-known issue which has quite a few workarounds. Could you please check this topic: https://forum.midronome.com/viewtopic.php?...

Hi Alan,

What DAW are you using?

Simon

If you already had plans for this, maybe you could make some pointers on where the thread would go? My main concern would be to avoid putting the hole in the proximity of device's internals. Yes you're right this was one of my biggest concerns. The best spot is pretty obvious if you open your Midro...

Thanks for the suggestion :) Are you aware about this feature which will come with Firmware 3.0? https://forum.midronome.com/viewtopic.php?t=210 Care to explain a bit what you mean precisely? Are Stop & Start a pulse or a gate? Ill assume Reset is like doing Stop+Start in one go. And those clock...

Hi :) Well without look into details, there seem to be an input called "LFO Rate"? So you could try 1) configuring the Midronome to send a 1ppq pulse: An.L setting to On (or PLA) and An.1 to 1 2) plug a cable from the ANLG output on the Midronome to the LFO Rate input on the Mavis See if t...

Thanks for the suggestion! :) Actually I've already considered making a special red metal plate (it would basically replace the current plate) with a threaded hole so you could mount it on a microphone stand. See the original discussion here: https://forum.midronome.com/viewtopic.php?t=76 The proble...

Awesome
And yes the MIDI input module is just what you need then

Simon

Thanks for the suggestion but unfortunately that will not be possible, not without changing the hardware at least
(the ring part of the plug is a simple digital input and will only accept a footswitch)

Simon

r.e. the Swing and Latency module - the blurb says "2 MIDI Outputs" but will they be able to output DIN Sync or will there be an analog output so we can swing a DIN sync signal? Would be great to be able to swing an 808, 303 etc with a variable swing amount. My thoughts were MIDI only but...

Ok nice to hear! I guess to get them to appear in Bitwig there must be a "refresh" devices somewhere... Can you try removing the device and then adding it again?

Cheers
Simon

i need to have my main notes device (Arturia Keystep 37) be able to send note data to the Midronome, and have the notes then passed on with Midi Thru to several synth devices.... Well you can already do this over USB - unless I misunderstood? Simply send the MIDI data from your Keystep to the compu...

Great, smart solution - thanks for sharing!

Honestly I doubt this will ever be implemented in the device itself at this point. I'm sorry to say there has been little interest from the community. But with the add-on modules everything is possible, and making a module which adds this should not be that difficult ;) How would you guys implement ...

Hi Abel Thanks for writing here! No worries about the translated english - it is perfectly understandable. 1. The USB cable will not affect this :) What OS are you using? (I'll assume Windows) Is the device's firmware updated to 2.0? If yes, can you try deleting the Midronome from the Device manager...

Well you can thank Nektarios who just posted a solution in the Midronome FB Group: For users of (un)Ableton Live which still doesn't have a solo safe/defeat function and every time you solo something, your Midronome VST track gets muted (along with the clocks going to your hardware). Using the "...

Hi Adam

Thanks for asking here! The An.L, An.1 and An.2 settings are only affecting the clock coming out of the ANLG port, so if you are only using the MIDI Out 1 & 2 ports you can ignore those settings

Cheers
Simon

Correct, you'll need an adapter TRS -> 2xTS It seems 3.5mm TS is not very common, so most of them you will find are 3.5mm male TRS -> 2x 6.35mm male TS (for example the one shown in the attachment) (TRS are the ones with "2 lines" while TS only have "1 line") Then you'll need an ...

@Bogdan: yes that's the idea, after Ableton Link (in fact it might come on the same module). But as I've written many places this is not easy, and to be honest I am not 100% sure it's within my abilities. My idea has been to get the algorithm from Ableton, but that might also be a challenge in terms...

Glad you asked! :D If you configure the ANLG output as "DIN Sync", it will have a start/stop gate on the right/ring part of the plug, and run at 24ppq on the left/tip part of the plug (as per vintage Roland devices require on a DIN Sync plug). But Firmware 3.0 will come with a full Reset i...

Hey guys :D So the module designs are coming soon. So far I have 6 designs ideas, which are listed on https://survey.midronome.com/ (and in the picture below) I suggest you go on that page and cast your vote as well ;) Note that the "big" module with Ableton Link, Beat Detection and Blueto...
