Re: Trying software again.. YIKES!!!

Thanks Per.. that did it (with one small addition, one has to click on Device Enable.. maybe that should have been obvious, but not to some...)

So now I have a loop synching with a Loop Player Contraption  in Mulch.. but there ONE thing wrong... When I hit R then R (to record in Mobius) The tempo displayed in Mobius (And hence output from Mobius and hence the bpm of Mulch) is 25 (ish 29 or whatever.) now I KNOW that Im maling a roughly 120 bpm loop here... cos Im counting R 1 2 3 4 R... 

Why is that? Mobius WORKS as of its own tempo ok.. but reading out a very slow one... Is it dependant on the 8th per cycle setting? (Cos thats what I do in my hardware EDP setup to fire off my drum machines and sequencers at faster or slower tempi.. (is it tempos or tempi?) But in Mobius I woudnt expct that behaviour.. and it doesnt seem to either.... so is there a general tempo setting or somat?

Yes, Mac is simpler. OS X already has built-in MIDI channels through
the system. It's called "IAC Bus" and if not ative you have to
activate at least one IAX Bus port. That is done by opening
"applications / utilities / Audio MIDI Setup". In that application you
go "Window / Show MIDI Widow". Double-click the IAC Driver icon and
check in the box named "Ports" (for a Port... I'm not going to fast am
I?  ;-)   If no IAC Bus port is listed there you click below on the +
sign labeled "Add and remove ports" (to remove a port you would have
to click the - sign, but we're not doing that today). Ok then, close
down the Audio MIDI Setup. Now when you open Mobius you will notice in
the MIDI Devices window that a new port is available. Select it (the
newborn IAC) as "Plugin Output". In Audio Mulch there is probably a
window where you set up MIDI ports to be used by the application; make
sure newborn IAC is allowed to play with the boys in the mulch. Then
there has to be a window in Mulchy where you set up synchronization
preferences; set newborn IAC as the port where Muchie should look for
MIDI Clock master sync. If there is a box for "MIDI Slave mode" tic it
as well while you're at it.
