Yes, that is correct. But I am not sure how well Bidule follows the AU
and VST protocols - I mean, Bidule has its own synchronisation
protocol (that works very well).

Check that you have Mobius and Bidule set to the same (digital) clock
frequency as you are running the RME at. I normally use 48 kHz but
44,1 works just as well. For the RME you can chose to make it the
synch master (not for musical sync, just for digital audio code synch)
or to adapt. Try both settings.

Also try the Bidule called "Synch". Connect it to the transport. Then
right click on the Mobius bidule and set it to synch to that Sync
bidule. And try also the Mobius setting "sync=In".
