Stop the midi clock output?
Stop the midi clock output?
Is there any way to stop the midi clock output? There are times I want to let my devices be free running and not synced but I can’t figure out a way to get midronome to stop sending a clock signal. I’ve just been unplugging it which is kind of a pain. It would be useful if the mute button could be set to mute the midi clock in addition to the audio output.

I get that idea. If implemented it should be an option to be switched on/off via a setting.

Interesting thoughts, you're not the first one to ask about it either 
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 should always be running. But I'll consider adding an option to turn it off when pressing Play (to stop) or Mute for example.
For now, the easiest workaround is to set the "inP" setting to "2.4.P." as this is the only mode where the Midronome will stop the master clock (the display will show "---"). Then set it back to OFF or something else to start the master clock again.

I would also like to see this feature. It could be another setup option, equivalent to the ANL setting ON vs PLAY.
For me it’s a question of combining two live setups; one where the midronome is master, and the other where my Atari ST is. Since the prog I use on the ST doesn’t accept a sync in, the ST is my master clock (which works great anyway)
Im at a standstill with combining these two setups currently. The only solution is to use an old “The Funnel” from Digital Music Corp and use inputs 1+2 and toggle the switch on the funnel, but that obviously adds one more step in the process (and one more thing to forget when I’m playing live!)
