@Ringo You are right! I hope the next firmware is a serious update and also fixes this GREAT DEFECT! and above all it also solves the problems of latency, of unity gain of the loops and the problem of noise in the 4CM connection!!!
Here I am the with the QC on my board thinking, hmmā¦ I should really set up the midi clock out to my volante so I can control the delay tempo and apparently thatās not a feature. Just nuts. I took for granted it had midi clock out cause this is 2023 and it seems like such a fundamental feature for a device like this.
I agree itās absolutely bananas. And the fact they wonāt just knock this feature out baffles me.
yes to this please!
Has Neural confirmed whether this is actually possible or not, hardware-wise? I donāt see why not, but just in case Iām holding my breath for nothing.
Bonkers that this isnāt the most basic MIDI function.
Bump. Still waiting on this featureā¦ Absolutely need to send midi out from qc to keep my pedals in sync with our live sessions.
Another new user here, and extremely surprised that the QC doesnāt take Midi clock Out in charge!!
At least for the reason that itās not possible to use it as a Master Clock for Ableton Live.
E.g. : use QC looper, synched with Ableton Live, by sending Midi Clock Out from QC to Ableton Live, and sync them together.
This is 2023, Ableton live, and looping have became inevitable tools for amateur musicians, YouTubers, Instagramersā¦
But also for professional musicians, touring with Ableton, or in small venues as well, where you often perform as duos, trios, and need Ableton Live.
This little Midi Clock Out functionality would literally unlock gigs! And allow to use your amazing Looper in a band context, which is now absolutely impossibleā¦
Please Neural DSP, would you give us an answer?
Thanks
Yes! I was prepping for a live show this weekend and just took it for granted the QC would have full midi clock master/slave capabilities like every other thing I own. This has been around forever and itās quite weird the QC doesnāt support it. Sadly the QC is out of contention for these upcoming shows and will have to use my AxeFX3 rig (big and clunky!) instead.
And just to add my voice to this discussion, Iām pretty bummed out that QC doesnāt send midi clock to my other devices. Itās an integral part of my needs for live work. Iām struggling to come up with a workaround, too. For all its greatness, this basic feature seems like a glaring omission and Iām kicking myself for taking for granted that this would be a thing. PLEASE enable midi clock (oh, and more than one command per switch is pretty much a no-brainer too)!
Pretty surprised that midi clock isnāt a feature of QC but more surprised that this thread is 2.5 years old and it hasnāt been implementedā¦
Problem apparently solved with last updateā¦
EDIT: Deleted because I was wrong.
One could always take their vote back, like I just did
I have been sending midi clock info to the QC without this workaround for quite a long time. I believe it shipped with the ability to receive midi clock unless I am misunderstanding you? Sending obviously just happened but even that is a bit half measured Iāll agree.
I have been able to successfully use the QC receiving external midi beat clock for a long time. It has always followed external midi tempo things perfectly. Just pro tools sending out midi beat clock, a midi interface, and the QC.
Hi @sleiweke care to share what you are sending to the QC? Or are you just sending a continuous beat? What CC and PC?
Midi beat clock is a kind of time code if you will. Not using minutes and seconds, but beat markers according to the tempo youāre using. In pro tools, thereās a menu option to send beat clock to specified midi outputs. Iām sure whatever DAW youāre using, thereās a similar option to send beat clock.
If youāre using a pedal, like another delay pedal, a disaster area designs Micro Clock or Smart Clock, you have to check the manual of your device to figure out how to tell it to send midi beat clock to another device.
I have not had to use the new feature in the QC that letās the QC be the master clock for other devices yet. Iām sure itās an easy setup. The QC manual should help you out there.
EDIT : QC is able to send midi clock out !
*Yeah ! QC is a killer All in 1 for sure, but the versatility could be so much better if the QC remains the brain as the central unit and could send midi clock sync to other pedal fxā¦ *
For exemple the combo H90 / QC is killer, and itās more efficient en logical if the central unit send the midi clock. I donāt understand why itās not already the case.
Please Neural DSP !
Erm, you can send midi clock out from the QCā¦!
