Hi, o boy you could write a book on this one. It’s tempting to say, if you don’t know what it is you don’t need to know but that’s not always true and probably not the answer you’re looking for, lol. Ok, here I go, anyone who wants to feel free to weigh in on this one, ,smile>. Basically it’s a system clock which, as the name suggests, tells devices where the start of a measure is and what tempo is being used. it’s only really relevant if you’re trying to sync multiple devices. it’s usually sequencer dependent, you’re right basmidi doesn’t like it on at all, and i’d recommend turning it off even if you’re not experiencing issues with it. it’s implementation is tricky so I’ll let one of the old hands, Nicole or one of you maybe, weigh in on it but I’m old enough to remember when it was implemented and we were all quite excited back in those days cause it meant we could auto sync our lights, etc, ,smile>. Best I can do at midnight, <smile>, but if you have specific questions ask and I’ll dig through the archives etc and see if I can find answers for you, . Cheers!

I don't even know what it's for. The only thing I do know is that Bassmidi doesn't like it so I had to turn it off. So, can anyone explain what it is and how it would be useful? Thanks, and happy holidays!
