Re: Echoloop in Mulch problems

I shouldnt have to Todd.. when using Mobius I could start up Mulch just by the second click of record, that would send out a midi clock from Mobius and that would set the overall speed of Mulch... just cant get it to work with EL. But maybe I should start another way.. at least check that it can snc to the Host clock.. havent even tried that cos its not the way I am used to.

This may seem a dippy question, but are you pressing 'play' in Audiomulch?

MIDI Clock.

Ha ha.. very funny.. I am aware of the concept.. But maybe I should describe my current attempt.
USB cable from GR55  to USBHub, to laptop. FCP1010 into midisport midi in port A, USB from midisport into Midi Hub.

IN Mobius I DO set PlugIN OUT to IAC (re previous point that echoloop doesnt give IAC as an option) So.. Is that IT? How do I ensure that midi is going back OUT to GR55? (Im used to cables and inand out sockets remember.. not magical busses.)

Cos none of the rythym based patches seem to be firing.. (the delays are playing and the tremlos are playing, but the synth patches with built in rythms are not... in my hardware world that suggests lack of clock... But you gave me a clue.. maybe I need to get down on my knees and peek at the setting in GR... I was assuming cos it worked with midi cable the settings would be the same for USB.. maybe not?

MIDI Clock.

I do like this: pop a USB cable into the laptop and the GR-55. In
Mobius I set the looper to use that MIDI Port as the "Plugin Output
Device" (together with the IAC Bus that slaving software on the laptop
follows). I did not notice a setting in the GR-55 to switch it between
master and slave sync mode so I guess it just fell in right by its own
devices.

The method above should work with a MIDI cable too, but I prefer USB
cables because I can keep a bunch of them gaffer taped to a MIDI Hub
that I plug into the lappy for fast setting up.
