E2 Sync

Post by loopman »

Hello guys,
I'm trying to sync the Tempo Bpm Value of the Electribe 2 to my Ableton 9.2 and Cubase 8 and viceversa.
It is recognized within both ones without any problem.
For instance, let's say that I want to sync the Bpm of the E2 (as slave machine) to the master Bpm tempo set in Ableton ( as master machine). In the Global Menu of the Electribe 2 I've set Clock Mode to "External USB" to have it slaved to Ableton main BPM.
Ok, it works fine and I can listen that the "tick" is the same on both ones (Ableton and E2), but on the screen display of the Korg E2 I see that the Bpm value remains Always the same and doesn't change even when I set a different Bpm on Ableton.

There is a way to see the right actual Bpm value on the E2 screen?

Yes, but the problem is still not solved, unfortunately.
The actual Bpm on the E2 display still doesn't change, it is fixed even though I change the Bpm value on Ableton.
Actually the E2 follows the Ableton master Bpm value, so it's only a matter of screen display value which doesn't change, I don't know why and I would like to know how to make it change.

That's all

When in external sync mode the default Bpm for each pattern is ignored.
Set your patterns Bpm by hand to match up the tempo.
