Mobius now supports external synchronization


A new release of Mobius is now available that supports external
synchronization.  The EDP sync modes In, Out, and OutUserStart
are supported as well as these new modes:

   MIDI Beat
     Similar to "beat sync", the start and end of the recording
     is simply quantized to a MIDI beat (24 clocks) and does not
     depend on the 8thsPerCycle or Quantize parameters.

   MIDI Bar
     Functionally the same as In with Quantize=Loop, but you can
     leave Quantize off if desired.

   VST Beat
     Quantizes the start and end of a recording to the VST host beat.

   VST Bar
     Quantizes the start and end of a recording to the VST host bar.

When used with the MIDI Yoke loopback device, Mobius may serve as the
sync master for VST hosts that can run as a sync slave.  This works
with Live, albeit with the well known "tempo smoothing" flaw.

A mode resembling "brother sync" is also available allowing a track to
quantize record times to the cycle of another track and then play
with sample accurate sync.  Several MIDI control improvements were
made allowing tracks to be controlled independently by more than one
musician.

For complete details you can read the synchronization chapter of
the manual here:
