Re: OT: eventide following clock

[james fowler <twostroke@gmail.com>]

italo is still there but i think he monitors the forums for the bigger machines.  he was always extremely helpful.  nick rose appears to be the guy for the eclipse forum.  

i had 4.0 beta installed and it did all kinds of weird stuff to a LOT of the programs i was using so i had to revert back to 3.51.  anyhow, just installed 4.01 and it seems to have addressed the problem.  miraculously the t_rate is now modulating along with the system tempo.  something else i noticed: previously the tap tempo light would flash on the one and now it's flashing every quarter note.  hmm...

i've never fucked around with the looper...lemme see if it gives me the same problem that you're getting.

and you're right: it does sound nice.  VERY nice.  this is my second eventide machine and i just don't think i can live without them.  kinda wish i had the $$$ for the h7600 ; )

Well i stop posting in the forum because it took ages for them to come up with the update and it dint adress a lot of the issues people were talking about
 after the last update the tap tempo via midi problem was corrected but if i recall i could not get the mod effects to sync either, though i did not test them long enough
i was also hoping that the looper would also sync to midi clock but never did,that would have been awesome
the other issue is that one of the switch buttons is starting to crap out ,big dissapointment because i bought it new and i ve never used that much for that to happen
the thing does sound nice though
cheers

did you have the same problem with midiclock or just the same problem with their forum?  when eventide's help was via mail list italo was always a big help.  i don't think he's on the eclipse forum.  if all else fails i'll just call tech support.  they've always been helpful but i've never called with this kind of problem...they'll probably just redirect me to the forum!

anybody out there having a hard time getting their eventide to follow incoming midi clock?  to be more specific: the tempo button (and corresponding bpm values) are spot-on, but for the life of me i can't get the tempo-based modulations to sync and the modulated parameter is drifting all over the place and thereby rendering it useless.  plogue bidule is generating the clock, btw.

any and all help is appreciated.  i've gotten no love from both plogue's and eventide's forums.
