Hi, Draw a picture with complete cabling. Describe all MIDI settings of your devices / setup in detail and ask at the Elektronauts forum. There you will find lot's of experienced people with complex MIDI setups. https://www.elektronauts.com/latest

Hi, My experience with win 11: While my Midronome had been detected by the FW 3.0 update file plugged into an Elektron USB Hub under Win 10 it was not detected by the FW 4.0 update file after up updating that PC to Win 11 and the same USB hub (though I could see it's FW 3.0 I/O in Ableton Live) Simp...

Hi Simon,

no download issues with the individual files. Looks like there was a "false positive" warning for the ZIP file...

Hi Simon,

FYI: Windows Defender on Win 11 just blocked the download of the file due to a virus:

upgrade-midronome-bootloader-step1-windows.zip dated 2024-11-25

Could you please check this?

I see! THX for these clarifications!

Hi Simon,

congrats to the new brand and new? product.

Will there be functional differences between the Midronome and the Nome II?

Hi Simon,

many thanks for your detailled explanation and insights!

Hi @Simon,

Are there news regarding U-Sync for Win?

Thank you ! Then I will wait for FW 3.1.

Hi, I've read the FW 3.0 release notes. Nevertheless I don't understand whether it makes sense to update to FW 3.0 considering my relatively simple usecase (I won't need MIDI CC control in near future). ... and FW 2.0 VST plugin works for me when I want to sync my Midronome to Ableton's tempo or mea...

Yes I think U-Sync for Windows 10 and 11 is important as well! I use the ASIO driver for a Focusrite Clarett+ 8pre interface. Why Windows? Because I had it always around me for different non music related usecases and an additional Macbook or Mac Pro only for music production IMO cannot be justified...

In the video and also in the manual it says that „Locked“ only lights up for each bar - in my case its always on. I see - the manual says that the Midronome syncs and the LED lights up after one bar, which is the case in 24P mode (it takes one bar to start the sync). In "2.4.P." mode it s...

I get that idea. If implemented it should be an option to be switched on/off via a setting.

Just google for "phone mount threaded" or search for them at amazon.

Good idea!

For existing Midronome owners: There are already a lot of phone mounts with threads and respective adaptors for every thread needed.

Hi, just follow the steps in Simon's video CAREFULLY. Pause the video after every step in order to understand every single step he does. AND set the "volume" / gain on your interface output to VERY "loud". :mrgreen: If your ears don't explode it is not loud enough :mrgreen: and y...

Ah, I see, didn't get that Nome = Midronome.

I deleted my posting to avoid confusion.

deleted after my misunderstanding has been clarified.

Hi there,

Here are the "best" YT videos I've found so far dealing with latency in Ableton Live:

Hopefully they are useful for you as well

8th metronome click would be complementary to a native x/8 signature support as discussed there:
viewtopic.php?p=1593#p1593

I like that idea, too.

It sounds useful, but it would be good to have the option to toggle the screensaver on/off in any case.

I second that option!

Good Morning Simon, THX a lot! My thoughts: I think x/8 are relevant as well ... though beeing not so heavily used in comparison to x/4 measures. They give a quite different feeling / groove: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/w0gUW4yOxHU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P45jlDNTf5Q So IMHO x/8 is a grea...

THX for reporting!
Now I know why mine flashes with the same sync setting 2.4.P. and A.PL = On, too.

However I didn't care.

THX! Good to know.

Hi Simon, yes and yes!

My interface is a Focusrite Clarett+ 8pre. Nothing special but not cheap as well. My usual headphone volume on its output one is around 9 o'clock.

Edit: Time signature change via MIDI over USB as shown in your last video works, too.

Status : implemented in v1.1.0 of the plugin. Download it on https://midronome.com/support ------- Hi there, I've "learned" from other postings that Midronome is not able to support x/8 time signatures natively and that only x/4 signatures can be supported. I'm just thinking loud whether ...

Thank you! I'll try it.

Now I'm just thinking loud whether the VST3 plugin could be upgraded to detect a x/8 time signature and send its 24 PPQ signal with the corresponding "suitably multiplied" tempo to Midronome.

Thank you! I had time to test the sync by using the VST3 (audio track only) for Win and it worked reliabely: I routed its 24 PPQ signal to the second headphone output on my interface and then to Midronome's input via TRS cable. Using mono or stereo tracks/channels on Ableton made no difference. Wort...

Hi, In this forum I've found a posting that Midronome cannot be switched to x/8 time signatures but it should be possible to use the x/4 time signatures after adapting the bpm. Could an expert please post the bpm formula for the usecase "convert a 6/8 time signature at 120 bpm to the correct x/...

Hi Simon and fellow Midronomists! Received my Midronome today, updated from FW 0.1 to 2.0 and had a very pleasant first jam synced by Midronome. My first setup with Midronome: Microfreak, Roland T-8 and S-1: I've connected a Kenton MIDI Thru 5 to Midronome and routed the MIDI clock and transport mes...
