hello there ,first post

i just bought a machinedrum and very new to this

having a wee problem with an external synth (microbrute)

I want to just use the midi clock from the machinedrum but the md tracks are sequencing it as well as syncing it , any idea how i stop it from doing this

cheers

ps i am reading the manual but finding it a little over whelming and need a nudge in the right direction

cheers again

‘CONTROL’: ‘Base channel’: pp58-59

can you explain that , i only see 1-4 / 13-16 feeling a little stupid here

your microbrute is most likely receiving on channel 1 so either set the base channel range to something else or turn the base channel setting down below “1-4” till it reads “–”

this setting will still allow the midi clock feed to your microbrute…

On pages 58 and 59 of the instruction manual for the Machinedrum, read the details of the ‘Base channel’ setting in the ‘Control’ menu.

press the up/down arrows to change from 1-4 to ZERO ZERO which will be MINUS MINUS and look like the closed eyes of a smiley

Hi,
Maybe you will also be interested in the MAP EDITOR part on page 59.
Put in the track/ mapping colum – for each track so they wont send anything to the synth.
Same job done I think.
