Hi All,
Any help would be appreciated. I’ve owned the AR for a while now, and recently acquired an A4. I’m trying to work with the two together – AR as master, A4 as slave. I’ve connected the two via a single Midi cable from AR’s Midi Out --> A4’s Midi In.
It works perfectly in sync when I press Play from AR. However, if I press stop on the A4 (while the AR is still playing), and then press Play on the A4 to jump back in with the AR, they’re totally out of sync (they only jump back in sync if I hit at just the right time). I did some troubleshooting to check Midi Config, and make sure Pattern Change settings were default on the A4.
Midi Config on AR: Clock Send: On, Transport Send: On, Prg Ch Send: On (all receiving is Off)
Midi Config on A4: Clock Receive: On, Transport Receive: On, Prg Ch Receive: On (all sending is Off)
Midi Ports are selected on both, Turbo is Off
Is there anything I’m not thinking of, or is this how the Elektron sync works? If I recall, the two patterns running have different pattern lengths (AR is 64/64, A4 is 16/16) – could that be throwing them off? I’m sure what’s going on is something very simple that I’m just missing…
Thanks for the help!
