Mac Ableton 12.3.7 Bidirectional Not working

Post by udntprty »

Hi,

I'm just setting up the Nome II and was successful in setting up Nome as the master clock with ableton. However I can not get the Bidirectional setup working.

Specs:
macOS 15.6.1
Ableton 12.3.7
U-SYNC 1.4
Nome Firmware 5.2
Control surface settings setup properly with no input or output ports selected (see screenshot)
Damon seeing both the DAW and Nome (See Screenshot)

When starting the playhead in Ableton I see the SYNC light up in the U-SYNC plugin but the Nome II does not start.

Help!

Hi :)

I believe you are missing to enable the "autoplay", check that the "A.PL" setting is set to "bot".
Everything else seems ok (latest U-SYNC version is 1.4.1).

Confirmed: U-SYNC version: 1.4.1

A.PL has been set to BOT as well.

Ok I figured it out. I use SoundSource and it was intercepting the Nome II!
