This worked as I wanted, sending a START whenever the playhead started moving, from any position.Ī minimal configuration file that does the trick when loaded with the midimap plugin: # midimap.lv2 - config/map file Good news, I solved it using x42’s Rule Based MIDI Filter (or midimap), thatĪ flexible MIDI event mapper plugin using a rule-based lookup-table loaded from a config file By activating the “Always Send Start Message” option, you can avoid this problem with specific MIDI devices. However, some MIDI devices do not recognize the Continue command. Or perhaps I can explicitelly send a START from Ardour? I also found that the Cubase DAW has a “Always send Start Message” option, so perhaps it’s not an uncommon problem and this deserves a Feature request for Ardour.Īlways Send Start Message MIDI clock transport commands include Start, Stop, and Continue. I’ll try to manage this with some kind of MIDI plugins to convert CONTINUEs to STARTs. Thing is, I want to record in arbitrary places, far from the start. But maybe it’s useful to start the internal clock with some offset so as to have an offbeat pattern. Maybe it is! I cannot imagine why would you want to have a free-running clock. I really don’t know whether this is expected behaviour or not. This is evidenced by the fact that if I start in sync, pause the playroll and then continue playing after some random ammount of time, the arpeggiator is not (necessarily) in sync.

STOP and CONTINUE messages stop the stuff that depends on the internal beat clock (arpeggiator, seq…), but that clock keeps running instead of locking its position or adjusting it according to the external beat clock.

MicroFreak needs a START message to synchronize its internal beat clock, that is used for the arpeggiator, the sequencer, the LFO, the cycling envelope and the glissando adjustments.

MIDI Time Code and MIDI Machine Control send stuff, but are irrelevant.When starting from another position, it sends a CONTINUE. MIDI Clock only sends a START messsage when the playroll starts moving from the start of time.I found more after inspecting the MIDI Clock output in Ardour. I’m posting this in both Arturia’s and Ardour’s forum, as maybe there are things relevant to both. Maybe there’s a kind of MIDI message that Ardour is not sending when the playroll starts moving? Does the MicroFreak expect such a message? Could not find specifics of MIDI communication in the MicroFreak manual. This problem is always reproducible for me. MicroFreak’s MIDI input connected to relevant MIDI output track of Ardour.MicroFreak’s MIDI input connected to MIDI Clock out and MIDI Control out.I tried enabling and connecting MIDI Time Code (MTC) and MIDI Machine Control (MMC), but they don’t change nothing.Without this, the arpeggiator won’t start when there’s a note sent from the DAW.

MIDI Beatclock Generator (Mclk / MIDI Clock) enabled.

I tried playing for two minutes and I can hear the same spacing between a kick drum and a synth note.

The arpeggiator is free running and then I should try stopping and replaying, many times until I luckily hit the beat.

It seems that it does not restart when I press play / the playroll starts moving.

This last value seems not to matter, as BPM effectively changes when I change it Ardour. Display shows “Ext USB” and the lastest manually adjusted BPM setting.

Read the manual and searched here before posting. I’m having problems synchronizing my Arturia MicroFreak hardware synthesizer (firmware v3.) with my DAW (Ardour 6.7.0 in Linux, using Jack).
