Title: [SOLVED] BS as midi master BSP as midi slave
Post by: wellwarp on September 19, 2017, 10:37:17 pm

Hi everyone! Tried to connect beatstep pro to beatstep via midi using standard mini jack. I thought it should be easy, but it just does not work.
Do you have any ideas why?

It does not work with the midi cable eather. BSP works as a midi through, and freases when i try to change the synk type

Hi wellwarp,
Use a TRS (stereo!!!) jack that goes from BeatStep Midi Out to BeatStep Pro MIDI IN. Put the BeatStep Pro SYNC into MIDI mode.

My mistake!
I have just check. BeatStep Midi Out is TS jack (Mono). So, putting a jack between them will not work.
If it does not work using a MIDI cable, this is because you do not use the right adapters.

• BS adapter is white and have a TS jack
• BSP adapter is dark grey and has a TRS jack
