Hello dear folks,
I am fairly new to gig performer 5 and i am quite impresed by now. I have stumbled upon a problem though. There seems to be no way to get the midi clock ( e.g. received via ableton link) out of gp, to sync other gear, not link enabled like my guitar processor. that seems very strange to me, for gp can do much more complicated things. but anyway. since this does not work, i try to do it the other way roundm and get my arturia keystep Pro to control the tempo of the gp rig. Until now everything wys quite intuitively for me to solve and understand, but now i am at a loss. there must be a way, to at least sync gp to another piece of hardware, if not as sender then at least as receiver, right? plz? i can control all 4 tracks from the keystep and everything is fine in gp, but i cant get gp to change the tempo if i change the tempo in the keystep (and the keystep does send clock, tried that on another hardware which synced to the keystep. I connect via usb and i have a windows 11 system. My interface(s) are ssl 12 and rme ucx, depending on which system i work. Can someone please explain to me how ths works? i am now in hour6 of reading the manual and searching online without any usable result. ;(
Currently GP can’t send a MIDI clock, but there are some workarounds.
Yes, GP can receive midi clock and synchronise its tempo. There are a few steps to achieve this.
-
Use the Rig Manager to create an alias for your controller. Rig Manager includes a setting to allow midi clock to be received.
-
Use the Rackspace Properties window to set a specific rackspace to use the incoming clock to sync its tempo.
