No Start/Stop and BPM change on Bitwig

Post by kyho »

Hi community,

I'm using Bitwig 5.3.8 and the most recent firmware on the Midronome and up to date U-Sync.

The VST is installed in Bitwig, U-Sync discovers the Midronome and the DAW. In Bitwig I have a proper controller installed and the sync set to the ext Midronome.

However Bitwig is not reacting to the start/stop and the Midronome is not getting into locked mode.

When use Bitwig as master the Midronome follows correctly. Maybe you can point me to the right directions. I checked the Macos Audio-Midi setup if there is any Nome related things left over, reinstalled everything and checked on multiple computers. :(

Hi :)

The problem is you are trying to sync Bitwig to your Nome over USB-MIDI, which conflicts with U-SYNC.
Make sure to deactivate the "sync/ext" to Midronome.
Make sure your Nome A.PL setting is not set to OFF.
Then just load the U-SYNC plugin and press play.

Once this works, for the bi-directional sync you will need to configure the controller as explained in section 6.2 of the U-SYNC Manual https://go.simntonic.com/u-sync-manual
