    Hi

    I’m trying to get the 2880 to function as a midi clocks master to my sequencing program (Digital Performer 6). I can get it to act as a slave but have no luck using the 2880 as a master. I basically just want to be able to control DP’s tempo with the 2880’s tempo slider. Has anyone successfully accomplished this with their DAW/sequencing program of choice? The manual skips over this topic altogether.

    The 2880 acts as a master midi clock. It transmits in Omni mode. I have used it with a Pro Tools 192 accel system which is mine and I have used it with Logic. Additionally, I have driven various hardware midi sequencers and drum machines.

    If you continue to have the problem you can email me at ricks@ehx.com. You should have no problem.

    Did you get this to work? I read somewhere that there was a new software update that addresses issues with the 2880 functioning as a master midi clock.

    Also I was wondering if I could get some specific information regarding using the use of the 2880 with a sequencer. I’m wanting to be able to use my electribe sequencer in time with a looper (midi). but i want to be able to run guitar loops in perfect time with the sequencer (I dont want to be recording loops from the sequencer in the looper just time matched). Will this be easy to accomplish using this set up? and how accurate would it be? does the ehx know to end four bars at the right bpm or does it time stretch if its off etc.? which should I run as the master?

    Any info would be greatly appreciated
