Tempo strangely switching to 120bpm

Technical issues here.
Midronome switches to 120 BPM after starting 1st measure off at 105.
No All Notes Off with Stop.
Have tried firmware 1.50 (beta firmware), 1.1, and 1.0 which is where everything worked to start with but not anymore.

Need to reselect something in settings?

Hi John - I moved your post.

There can be many things that could get the tempo to change: an AudioSync signal, a MIDI CC message over USB, two taps of the Tap Tempo button, or of any of the two pedals (a "tap" of the pedal could be a loud enough audio signal sent to the input configured as pedal).

Start by disconnecting everything from your Midronome, plug the USB cable in a wall plug (phone charger f.ex.), and see if the issue is still there. If it is, set the inP setting to OFF, and if you can see the PE.2 setting (it's an "advanced" setting), then set that one to OFF as well.

If this does not help please make a video of what is happening and send it to me on support@midronome.com.

Yes that's normal it is not implemented yet. Firmware 1.50 only has the MIDI Forwarding implemented.

The tune I chose for testing v1.50 has a control channel 12 that sends CC87 val. 60 to Midronome, which of course overrides the knob setting.
I overlooked that bit of information.

A value of 60 equates to 120 BPM since 0-127 equates to 60-187.

I'm a bit confused - so you were sending a CC87 val. 60?
Because yes you're right that would set the tempo to 120 :)

Is this issue then resolved?

Simon,

I originally posted this problem in the beta forum because I had just upgraded to v1.50 and thought this might have been a result of that.
My mistake. Issue resolved.
