….. current setup:
soooo….. still no luck syncing the Roland TR-606 with the 2880
> The Roland only has one midi sync jack – but a switch to choose between “Input” and “Output”. I have it set to “Output”
> I have the midi cable plugged into the 2880’s “Midi In”
> With the Roland 606 playing through a rhythm loop, I select both the “Quantize” and “Ext Clock”
> Once I arm a “new track” (loop on the 2880) and with the 606 looping and press “Record” – it doesn’t begin to record, but it sends the “Ext Clock” indicator light flashing rapidly. NOTE: while the “Ext Clock” button / light is engaged, the “Click Track” tempo does not follow the tempo by default or as I increase or decrease the tempo on the 606…. shouldn’t it?
> Once I press record for the second time, with the Ext Clock light blinking, it begins to record on track 1.
…. now it’s one thing to play along with the 606’s rhythm… it’s all fine and dandy until I try to stop recording and have the 2880’s track sync with the 606. It just doesn’t work. No matter how I choose to stop recording and continue playing (pressing play or pressing record again on the footswitch), it’s not going to be in sync and as it plays just furthers drifts away from being in sync. I’m starting to think it’s not going to work, but can’t imagine why.
I’m new to midi, but I’d figure the 2880’s midi syncing to be a little more intuitive than this.
Any other suggestions would be appreciated. Am I overlooking any settings? …got everything hooked up right (regards to outs and ins, etc.)?
