Title: auto sequencer start from midi
Post by: nashspacerocket on November 18, 2014, 05:04:43 am
being new to this stuff (i'm a guitarist)  i'm wondering if anybody can help me.
My korg volca bass midi synced to my roland r8 will start a sequence when the drum machine starts and stop when it stops.
i can't get the arturia to do this, however you have the keymode set it's a manual job to get them  to  start together.
if you have keymode = 'note on' you have to press and hold a note at the right time to start and keep the sequencer running.
if you have keymode = 'hold' you have to manually turn the sequencer on at the the right time to  get them in sync.
i'm currently using a kluge of leaving a blank  sequence and starting with that then turning to the desired sequence during the bar and when the next bar starts my sequence starts in time automatically. not the best solution since i have to  waste a pattern.
i do not use a daw or anything, just syncing it with my drum machine.

Did you ever find a solution to this man?

No.
Having the MB sequencer respond to  MIDI Start/Stop just  seems such a basic thing. Korg volca's do it. What is so difficult?
