Bank encoder interferes with MIDI clock
Posted: Fri Sep 26, 2014 12:35 pm
I have just played with an Origin connected to the Solaris where the origin has a sequence that is gated, i.e., it starts running when I press a key. I set the Solaris to send MIDI clock so I can run both sequencers in parallell - great fun!
MIDICtrl - On
ClkSrc - Send
But, when I keep a key down, triggering the sequence, and then turn the Bank encoder on the main screen, the MIDI clock gets confused and the sequence on the external synth steps severely out of time. Stop turing the encoder and the Origin steps back in to time.
The same behavior applies to all encoders on the main screen, but the Bank and Program seems to have the most severe impact on timing, with very distinct pauses in the Origin's sequence as effect. Also moving the joystick manages to interfere with the transmitted MIDI clock, albeit not as much as the Bank encoder.
I tried to search this forum for similar issues but no hits - I am sorry if this is well known and I am singing to a choir.
Cheers,
K
