Syncing Record Function from keyboard to LP9 [SOLVED]


ErroneousDylan

Recommended Posts

I'm a bit new to this so bare with me if I can't express my question properly.

 

I have a Yamaha MO8 production sythesizer connected to my computer and have

been recording it wiht Logic Pro 9. Usually, what I'll do is record a loop on my synthesizer

so that it is already quantized, then I'll hit record in Logic Pro and let it record what is playing

from my synthesizer. The only problem I have with this is that: LP9 usually will count-in to

the record (1.. 2.. 3.. 4..) and then start recording what I have playing on my synthesizer.

This means that I have to listen for the count-in and then hit play on my synth when I feel

the first beat comes around. Then I don't really get it "exact" so I have to go in and edit

the sound clip so that it loops smoothly.

 

So, what I am wondering is: is there any way I can have LP9 start recording at the same

time that I hit play on my synthesizer? That way I get smooth loops and don't have to

edit them?

 

This very well could be something I'd have to figure out on my synth but I figured I'd ask

if it was possible in Logic or if anyone knows the solution. I just want to be able to record

on Logic and not have it actually start recording until I hit play on my synth.

 

Thanks.

Never mind. =) I managed to resolve this on my own using the MIDI Clock function. Thanks for reading.

 

Thank you for updating your thread with your solution!
