I've been also trying to mix BrotherSync and BeatSync and even with MIDI, but that wasn't all very satisfying. This works pretty nice now, though not always 100% flawless sadly. > I did not test with very long cable... and I cannot here... > did you test with short cables? No I haven't.. But I guess because it's so random, it's hard to test anyhow. But it's a good tip and I'll try it. I have made a new cable that is soldered ny a pro so that I don't have all these extensions anymore. That could also help I guess to make it more stable. *fingers crossed* > Its actually interesting to look at the signal at the tip of the > cable, whenever you have access to a scope: > its a square wave at sample frequency which has steps in it for > each unit connected. when those steps "walk", we are not synced. > The loss over the cable should be visible, too. Maybe it's good to do a test like that sometimes. Though I should first find someone that could actually measure it with the right tools. > does anyone remember having seen such spontaneous Record/Overdub as > Reyn experiences? > looks like a new problem to me... Its like when I'm in RoundMode, it will not wait sometimes until the round is complete and just starts recording halfway and loose sync completely. > does it only happen when all three units are connected? Yes, it does. Normally, the 2 units I use are fine. Though also they don't always stay 'together' when I have like Midi Clock running for example. > sorry for that confusion... that cirquit is to critical, somehow... > > On 7 Nov 2007, at 06:35, REYN wrote: > >> >> On Nov 7, 2007, at 1:18 AM, L.A.
