BB in combo with NS2 - synced from Ableton

[BrennanSingularSound]

@bruno.beyls

Pause/Unpause when synced is not working well - (it works OK if BB is using its internal clock) The “resume” action is not executed well - I think at BB side (we stop Ableton and restart it at the unpause event)… Anybody who has positive experience to share on this?

Hey there, thanks for the questions

Can I ask, did you try the BeatBuddy with both Mute Pause enabled and disabled to see what may work better?

Mute Pause, if enabled, keeps the BeatBuddy’s beat “going” in the background without any sounds being played. Once unpaused, the BB will still be in sync with where it currently would be in the measure if you hadn’t paused it. In this case the BB will not send a Start command when unpausing like it normally does.

If disabled, BB will start from beginning at every unpause event and send a Start command unless MIDI Start is disabled.

MIDI Start setting: Main Pedal > MIDI Settings > MIDI Out > Start

Mute Pause: Main Pedal > Mute Pause

Note that Mute Pause is set by default to MIDI Activated as of version 3.9.9.4, this setting reads if the BB is MIDI “slave” (or receiver) to an ext. clock and automatically activates Mute Pause. (Beta 4.0.1 is available now)

Let me know if this was helpful

@bruno.beyls

Is there a way to let BB restart its current clip (1st bar) while running (I know it does it when unpausing but would be better if we can do it in flight)

Not currently but we may have some things in the pipeline that may cover this behavior. Stay tuned!

Thanks for the questions! Let me know if you have more
