Problems syncing with Ableton

[cacoeyzaguirre]

Hi there, i`m a really new to Analog Four.

I just got a brand new Analog Four, and i want to use it in sync with my Maschine.

When i open Maschine as a Standalone, the A4 will sync perfectly. But when i try to sync the A4 with Live it won´t work.

Im using a 2010 Macbook Pro with Live 8.

I put the Track, Sync and Remote boxes “on” and when i hit play on Live nothing happens. (A4 is receiving clock and transport).

Does anybody know what might i be doing wrong??

Thanks a lot!

Hi Cacoeyzaguirre

In midi preference i have

Input. Elektron analog 4 Track off, Sync off, Remote off

Output. Elektron analog 4 Track on, Sync on, Remote off

Midi clock sync delay set to-52ms

In audio device, audio error compensation set to 0ms

Or

Midi clock sync delay set to 0ms

In audio device audio error compensation set to -6ms

It depends on the sound card that is used (drivers) and sample rate/buffer in use.

If everything worked, activate the Ableton metronome, activate the metronome in Analog 4 (hold 2 seconds Function + Click), press play and listen if you are synced, without click to ext (externeal sync).

I suggest you set everything well, doing the tests, it can be useful if you also looking:

A4 // Ableton Live 9 // Ext. Instrument // some questions

Hey, I just tried to hook up my A4 with Ableton Live 9. This is my first time ever hooking up hardware gear with a DAW via MIDI . This is what I did: linked A4's Midi In to sound card's Midi Out via Standard Midi cable switched "Track" and "Sync" of my soundcard's Midi Output to "on" within Ableton Preferences set "Input From" to "Midi" within A4 enabled "Clock Receive", "Transport Receive" and "Prog Ch Receive" within A4's Midi Config Menu. linked A4's Main Outputs to Input Channels 7/8…

A4 Delay & Ableton Oddness

Wondering if others are having this. When I press play on Ableton it takes a small second for the A4's delay to sync into the external tempo (coming from Ableton). Here's an audio example of what I mean https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1312569/Delays.mp3 It doesn't do this in Logic however, (but I don't use Logic). I've tried contacting Ableton but they've not been much help. So wondering first if this happens to others here. Makes rendering clips really difficult :zonked:
