Interesting thoughts! Yes I agree with the CC - I'll make sure to use this and Song Select, so you guys can choose ;) Regarding the pedal - you mean a basic footswitch that will be connected to the "INPUT" plug? That could be - just adding an extra mode to the "PEd" setting after...

You guys are spot on - and yes it should definitely be possible - and hopefully very easy to implement!

I'll test it very soon - if it is easy this will come with the next firmware update

Simon

Ha!! That was a tricky one
Very happy to that it is solved in any case!!

Simon

Gosh yea that does not look great :roll: Thanks for trying all of this. The last run seemed to be looking for a file on " C:\Users\Hello!! " ? That looks very strange. It's hard for me to spend a lot of time improving or debugging this old tool as it is completely outdated (and yes using J...

Hi :) First I'm really sorry you have to go through this - not the best customer experience, I know :roll: I've made a new zip for you on https://download.simntonic.com/software/windows/ called upgrade-midr-btl-step1-win-jar-only.zip It contains the jar file of the program, which you can launch usin...

But I think it would just be really cool and intuitive if the physical tempo knob on the Midronome could be used to adjust the global Ableton tempo while using U-SYNC to sync the Midronome from the Ableton clock. Yes I would love that too - I agree that would be a really nice integration :) It has ...

Maybe this could be worked out for a few DAWs using a control interface.

See viewtopic.php?p=2349#p2349 for extra info.

I understand your thinking :) And you're not wrong, syncing with the audio method is very accurate. But it's "only" sample accurate. If your tempo at 24ppq is not divisible by your sample rate, then you will inherently have some jitter since the audio pulses will be "quantized" b...

Well it should be the same - very stable

But yes if your device has MIDI I'd recommend to use that unless you have a reason not to (lack of ports, etc.).
The idea with DIN Sync is more for actual vintage devices like the original Roland 303, 606, etc. that did not have any MIDI input.

Hi :) So first thing is: U-SYNC controls your Nome from Ableton, and if you also want to control Ableton from the Nome, that will be a very weird blocking result. So you can only do one or the other (at the same time), it's quick and easy to switch between the two. As for syncing Ableton to the Nome...

Hi :) Yes - if you check the manual the "Syn" setting is not only accessible by long-pressing the knob because it should only be used to sync multiple Nomes together - see section 6 of the manual ( https://go.simntonic.com/manual ). EDIT : actually the manual was not super clear about that...

Well it's definitely not a virus :roll: Everything inside the the zip is signed with a proper certificate, but apparently that's not good enough for Microsoft :? The problem with these kind of issues is the whole thing is based on "reputation" and that reputation keeps improving every time...

I would like to nome II to follow the band's tempo in live by taping external pedal. I would like to tap tempo with external pedal in eighth notes but Nome II would send clock in quarter notes. One possibility would be to select a factor (-2...) in the Nome II settings that would multiply or divide...

Glad to hear
If you are using U-SYNC, please make sure to use version 1.0.1 (the latest version available on the website) and let us know if you have any issues

Simon

Yes there is enough juice, and the output impedance is low enough as well - you can try it if you have a speaker at hand
I think the point is more the acoustics, trying to use the device case as a resonator for the sound so it amplifies it naturally

Simon

Interesting!
Based on the community interest, this would never be an integral part of the device. It would be a simple attachable small speaker, purchased separately. The speaker will probably have a magnet and a plug to go into the "AUDIO" output

Simon

No adapter, just USB yes

Great suggestion!! Thank you for creating the topic

Anyone else interested?

Simon

No worries, ask anytime :) Yes the production of the Nome II has been delayed, and since I will start FW 4.0 dev after, then this has been delayed too. But I hope to start very soon - still no ETA at the moment. Regarding your other questions, please do not hesitate to share how you would want this ...

Hi :) Well the devices themselves, both Nome I and II, are configurable and should be usable with your OS, as in they simply send MIDI Clock to the computer and all of the hardware stuff will work fine. Getting U-SYNC to work on old OS - not a chance. But you could simply generate audio pulses - tha...

Hi Karl

Sorry if this was not clear - you need to upgrade your bootloader which will also upgrade your firmware to 3.0 in the process. New firmware updates after that will be more automatic.

I have added a note about this on https://simntonic.com/pages/support

Simon

Yes you only need USB. The "Locked" LED on both the physical device and the DAW plugin should light up orange when you press play. Is it not the case? If it is, then all is good and the reason your Octotrack does not track automatically is because you have not set the "autoplay" ...

Hi Firat So this was an actual bug - really sorry about that! It is fixed in version 1.0.1 of the U-SYNC software. You can install U-SYNC software version 1.0.1 from this link: https://download.simntonic.com/software/mac/Midronome_U-SYNC-software-1.0.1.pkg You can install it on top of the current ve...

Thanks for asking, and there are no dumb questions! :D But the answer is yes you can control Ableton (its tempo but also start/stop) with the Midronome. Simply check the "sync" checkbox in front of "Midronome Clock" in the Ableton MIDI preferences ;) Simon PS: moving this topic t...

Well that's great news either way :D But yes this could be caused by anything trying to change the tempo on the device, either over USB (U-SYNC, or MIDI CC messages) or over the analog input (in 24P or tap mode). Please do not hesitate to write here if you see it again or have any more info about th...

That does sound strange indeed - thanks for reporting! Can you please make sure that: The U-SYNC Daemon is fully stopped There are no other cable plugged in your Midronome (only the USB cable) When you do these, is the problem still there? If it is, can you try powering it from a simple USB phone ch...

Please do not create duplicate topics - I'll close this one we can continue the discussion there
Simon

Thank you Firat that is very useful info! I'll do some investigation on Monday and get back to you here! )
Simon

Hi :) Thanks for asking here. If you can give us more information on what's happening it would help a lot. My first thought: is your device upgraded to FW 3.0? If so, could you please try the following: Unplug your Midronome Open the Audio MIDI Setup, in the MIDI Devices window, delete anything with...

Hi :) UPG with green light means everything is good on the hardware side: you are running the new bootloader and the green light indicates it connects fine to your computer. All you're missing is reloading the Midronome FW. Windows is unfortunately not very good at giving error messages, so this cou...
