Setting Description
Sync
Mode Click the drop-down menu to set the MIDI Sync mode preference
for MASCHINE:
Off: No MIDI sync mode is selected.
Master (Send Clock): If MASCHINE is running as a stand-alone
application, it can also send a MIDI Clock signal to any device that
is capable of receiving MIDI Clock. This could be hardware such as
a drum machine, another groove box, or even another software
sequencer.
Slave (Receive Clock): If MASCHINE is running as a stand-alone
application, it can be controlled externally via MIDI Clock by any
device that is capable of sending MIDI Clock. This could be
hardware such as a drum machine, another groove box or
sequencer, or even another software sequencer.
Please note that the Slave (Receive Clock) option is not available
when LINK is active. For more information on Link see ↑2.8,
Syncing MASCHINE using Ableton Link.
Clock Offset (appears
when Mode is set to
Slave)
Click and move the Clock Offset slider to compensate for delay that
may occur during MIDI data transmission. Delayed MIDI Clock data
will cause external devices to respond too late, thus making your
track sound out of sync.
By adjusting the Clock Offset value you can set an amount of
latency to be compensated (in milliseconds). MASCHINE will then
send MIDI Clock events ahead of time as defined.
