<p>Hi,</p><p>I am Quite surprised that nobody ever tried to sync 2 computers by midi.<br>I performed some tests with one computer with rosegarden and a Hardware sequencer remixerr (yamaha RM1-X).<br></p><p>In the RM1-X, I can choose sync mode between Intern (like a master), midi and MTC. When I choose Midi, the tempo setting is not available anymore, and the synchro with rosegarden is perfect (transport + tempo). increasing the tempo in Rosegarden also increase the tempo in the RM1-X.</p>
<p>When I choose MTC on RM1-X, the transport start with rosegarden, but I always can modify the tempo. And even if I choose the same tempo, there is some time shift few minutes later.</p><p>In the other hand, When I make the RM1-X as a master, the transport is synchro but Rosegarden keep is own tempo. So it is unusable.</p>
<p><br>I don't know very well the MTC protocol, but isn't there a way to sync the Tempo with it ?<br></p><p>Greets,</p><p>Mysth-R</p><p></p><br><div class="gmail_quote">2008/11/26 Mysth-R <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:mysthr21@gmail.com">mysthr21@gmail.com</a>></span><br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"><p>Hi,</p><p>Yesterday I tried with a friend of mine to synchronize our computers with a simple midi cable.<br>We just want to make music together, and synchronize, the transport AND the tempo with a Master and a Slave.<br>
</p><p>After hours and hours of tests, we just made the transport sync works. But we couldn't sync the tempo.</p><p>Someone told me on the #LAD IRC, about netjack, but it seems to be to "loud" for what we want to do.</p>
<p>In fact, most of the softs can sync themself each other with JACK transport, but can't send Midi Time Code to the midi out.<br>And when we even they can send Midi Time Code, it can't be sync with jack transport on the other computer.<br>
</p><p>The top would be to find a soft which can act as a bridge between Midi Time Code and Jack Transport. like for exemple :</p><p>First Computer : Seq24 -> Midi Time Code send to Midi out of the Sound card.<br>Second computer : -> Midi Time Code received in the Midi In -> bridge on JackTransport -> and then each softs could be sync.</p>
<p>The other solution :</p><p>First Computer : Seq24 -> JACK Transport -> BRIDGEto Midi Time Code send to Midi out of the Sound card.<br>Second computer : -> Midi Time Code received in the Midi In -> BRIDGE to JACKTransport -> and then each softs could be sync.</p>
<p>Is someone knows a simple solution ?<br>I am a bit disapointed<br></p><p>Thank you for your help</p><p>Cheers, </p><p>Mysth-R</p><br>-- <br>* ***************************************************************************************<br>
