Midronome Community

Hi Dheeraj Thanks for writing here :) Let's try this one step at a time: first get the Midronome to follow the tempo from Ableton. For this, you'll to: 1. install the Midronome VST plugin 2. load it on a track in your Ableton session 3. route that track to a dedicated output on your RME (nothing els...

Hi :) It sounds like AUM only uses the first interface from each device. Could you check if you can see both INs interfaces (Clock only and Clock & Start)? If you cannot, it confirms my theory - the AUM only sees one pair of IN/OUT interface per device. If that is the case, unfortunately there i...

I deleted my posting to avoid confusion.

No worries at all!
I was wondering if that name was starting to take...

I'm afraid you misunderstood this. The Midronome as Clock and Transport Master is already possible (for Ableton at least): simply activate external sync in Ableton. But this has a few issues, the precision (since it is over USB-MIDI) for one, but also as you mentioned the latency (though you should ...

Hi Jonatas :) In this setup the 'Nome (nickname for the Midronome - invented by the community :D ) should be the master. It will send MIDI Clock to your SX700, and ideally you want to start the SX700 by pressing the Play button on the Nome. This way it will be in time with anything else connected to...

Awesome! Thanks for sharing

Which manual are you speaking about? Denis' or the "How to sync with DAWs"?

Cheers

I do not think anyone has tried this yet? Looking at the NDLR manual - https://conductivelabs.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/The-NDLR-User-Manual-v1.7.pdf - it looks like it should just work fine? (see page 34) Once you found out, it would be nice to add it to the compatibility sheet: https://docs.g...

Hi :) Quite a few people seem to be asking for this, and there is no topic to discuss it. The idea is to sync the Nome tightly to your DAW using the plugin, but at the same time to let your DAW be controlled by the Midronome. I think this could work if: DAW -> Nome is a synchronisation (i.e. tight) ...

Hey Rob Well I'd say it's amazing you already got it working both ways this far - I'm pretty sure you are the first! To answer your question - it must be a FL Studio setting, that the MIDI Clock is only taken into account when the DAW is playing. The Nome sends MIDI Clock constantly (expect in 2.4.P...

Denis maybe you have an idea of what is going on with Peter's setup?

But otherwise Peter I'd say simply use the track delay to add a positive delay to the Midronome plugin track of 16ms and it should be on the grid?

Ok I found the answer: https://support.apple.com/en-us/101962

If I am not mistaken you just need to create an empty MIDI region in your Midronome track and the plugin will not be deactivated. Let me know if that works

Maybe sharing your Logic session as well could help :) EDIT : Ok after a good 30 minutes of fiddling with Logic, I can reproduce the error... But not with the Midronome plugin? So this is clearly not a Midronome specific thing, more a Logic specific thing. I created a new Software Instrument Track, ...

No need to report an official bug for now. And sorry about this, I was taken with other stuff and I forgot, great that you reminded me :) I just tried now, but I could not reproduce the issue at all. In fact I don't even know how to disable a plugin in Logic. I asked on the FB group to see if someon...

Glad to hear!!

Hi all - I just realized there is an easy workaround for those who want this feature. You'll need a pedal and 2 adapter cables: a TRS -> 2xTS splitter and a TS -> 2xTS duplicater. Situation 1 : your pedal has a jack input plug (like the Zoom FS01 or Boss FS-5x), then you need: TRS -> 2xTS splitter: ...

Thanks for the feedback, I like your suggestions

This is on the roadmap for Firmware 3.0 so you can expect it some time in 2024

Cheers

I see Then Link is clearly the way to go - but again it would be much better to do it in software so that it's software-to-software communication, without involving any hardware

Thanks for reporting :) Though I am going to reject this as it is an Ableton issue not a Midronome Plugin issue. The Midronome plugin is on a track, so yes when you solo another track all other tracks are muted, including the Midronome plugin track: so the sync stops, that makes sense. What you are ...

3. The play button is blinking during the first bar and is lit at the second. Thanks for trying all of this :) This point is clearly the problem - blinking means it will send a reset on the next bar... which it does :D It sounds like your DAW is sending MIDI to the Midronome - for example if you se...

I don't use Ableton Live so I can't do that and Bitwig doesn't have track delay. I just meant that as an example of a "negative" delay, not as a replacement for this feature - sorry if this was not clear ;) So being able to offset one of the MIDI outputs won't be available on the base uni...

Ha ha I'm the OP :D But in any case any feedback is much appreciated :) And with "positive" delay I mean you machines will play later than everything else. I undestand that people obviously want a negative delay, the question was more "would you be able to make it work with a positive...

Hi Adam :) As written in the PDF, you need to create a Software Instrument Track, not a MIDI track. This type of track outputs audio and the plugin will generate sound (you can listen to it, it will sound like a very loud buzz) which you will need to route to a dedicated output on your audio interfa...

Hi :D That's a very strange behavior indeed. Could you please check: at what point the plugin starts sending audio (first bar or second bar) at what point the "Locked" LED / BPM display is on (first bar or second bar) is the Play button blinking during the first bar? try the same setup wit...

Hi :) Well you're trying to sync two pieces of software, running on the same machine (I suppose), using a piece of hardware? :D I would highly recommend using a software solution - which one, I'm not sure. There must be something that exists for this somehow, maybe you're on the right track with Max...

Would a positive-only shift work for you?

Hi Peter

That does sound strange indeed - it does sound like a bug
I'll test it and get back to you!

Thanks for reporting it in any case!
Simon

Hi :) Thanks for asking here - je parle francais aussi mais on va rester en anglais ici pour que les autres puissent lire aussi ;) People have tried and unfortunately syncing Loopers is not always easy - the RC300 will not sync to MIDI Clock properly. from-facebook-community-group.png (this is taken...

Looks amazing Milos!!

Hi again

That will work fine. The Midronome's MIDI runs at 3.3V as written in the Tech Specs.
And I've used a MIDI Thru box from MIDI Solutions (also powered via MIDI) which worked fine.

Simon

Hi :) Thanks for asking here. The Midronome will work with any simple footswitch, both latching and momentary (either polarity). So my guess would also be yes - though it is not clear on their website if this is a simple footswitch or if there is anything particular inside. But since it is not power...
