Hi,

I stumble into an midisync/timing issue with Rebirth.
Here is my setup:
MacMini running Cubase 7.5 on MacOS10.9.5 Mavericks.
Audio interface on this system: M-Audio firewire audiophile
from this audio interface I've connected Midi out

The target system:
Mac G4 MDD running MacOS9.2.2 2GB ram
Audio interface: M-audio firewire audiophile
The midi from the MacMini is connected to the Midi-in from this system.
OMS 2.3.8 is installed and working.

With midi sync set to internal I can start playing Rebirth from my midi keyboard by entering note [A3]


When I setup Cubase 7.5 to transmit midiclock and events I can start Rebirth with the start/stop buttons from Cubase.  However in this setup the Timing of Rebirth is weird. It goes out to 356bpm and cannot be changed.

When I connect my Beatstep pro 5p din midi out directly to Rebirth with the timing set to exteral. I can start/stop Rebirth from the Beatstep pro and can adjust the speed.

I'd like to control Rebirth from Cubase because I there can program my pattern changes, but it needs to be in sync with the correct timing.

Do you have any idea of how to control this weird speed problem?

regards
Marcel



fun fact: I run Reason 2.5 on that Mac MDD and use the Rebirth/rewire connection to separate the audio from the individual Rebirth instruments. This audio is routed to the 4 outputs from my M-audio firewire audiophile audio device.

I think I solved my problem.

I bought a Beatstep Pro and a Midi mergebox. The Beatstep is connected via USB to my MacMini with Cubase and the midi-out is connected to my Midi mergebox.
The channel  of the Beatstep Pro sequencers is different from the midichannel Rebirth is listening on.

I set timing in Reason/Rebirth to Midi. The Midiclock signal is broadcasted on the midibus. And Rebirth and Reason are now in sync. I can also control the Rebirth presets from Cubase or from my Midikeyboard.

regards,
Marcel
