>>I'm currently in a project where we use two Mac PowerBooks running Live
in sync (midi) and myself, as musician using a Jamman for treated saxes
and flute. I've used the loop-function to layer sax riffs and this has
worked fine at a couple rehearsals. Yesterday, all of a sudden, it wont
sync to midi. The loop beat starts to drift immediately and after 8-10
bars it's out of sync to almost a 1/32 note. Has anybody experienced
Jamman falling out of midi sync? Has anybody got a solution? (We've got
a major gig on Saturday...)<<
I know you've already tried both of these things, but try them again in case: get something else- a drum machine, w.h.y.- on the end of the same cable and see if it clocks ok.
try another cable.
take the midi-through from the jamman into the w.h.y. and see if the clock is still there. the little light on the front of the jamman flashes like crazy (completely useless for playing along with) when there's an external clock.
neither of mine have ever drifted in this fashion. I'd be looking at the midi interface or the midi settings within the macs (OMS, is it?) rather than the lexicon.
even if you stop the midi clock or yank the cable out, the jamman keeps going at the same speed- I suspect you're not clocking it at all at the moment.
duncan.
