Re: What Looper to use for syncing with other loopers/samplers/computers



That's right,
I have midi synced loopers running here,
with just a midi cable.

That's how they are designed to sync.




Looping devices need sample accurate timing for the audio
(unlike drum machines ), so generally they have a pretty good midi-clock 
output
in terms of timing.

But Sergio, people are wanting to synch lots more together than just Loopers... synths, effects and loopers... Andys point is that if the Looper is able to synch, then it will have a midi in out port in which case you dont need a external box, just a cable... For connecting between a laptop and a hardware looper, a midi interface is needed for the laptop, and a cable...

    It is a mistery for me too, Andy, but you just need a very quick
    google research to find out how many people spent that money and
    is extremely happy of their purchase.
    If people have sync problems and they buy a 700/800 euro sync
    device and it does not solve their problem I am sure the web would
    be full of complains and posts about fraud etc.
    I unfortunately was not able to understand exactly how do they do
    what they do.
    In innerclock system page, you will find anyway, I think, quite a
    lot of info which you probably will be more able than me in
    understanding.
    Then, once you understand, I would be glad if you explain it to me!
    Even if, till David will not confirm that the sync problems
    between Octatrack and Ableton can be solved with his product, I
    will not buy it.
