...Transport Detector can send MIDI clock and a CC on a start/stop to the VST midi out.
Instructions
written by soma
In energyXT, you can map the those CC's to a sequencer's start, stop, home, and record! Panic too.
This plug will send MIDI start and clock messages out too. It can pass the clock to a physical
midi device and/or VST port.
Tempo, time and beat counts are displayed. (Assumes 4/4)
Essential Information for using the MIDI Clock feature in energyXT:
- The MIDI-Clock defaults to 120bpm on start up, to make it sync to the tempo,
you have to "update" the tempo once, meaning just change the tempo and set
it back to the original. This also works before the transport is activated.
- When you want to use the MIDI Clock in a Sequencer comp, you have to insert
it to the "MIDI FX - Groove" of a MIDI Track, and the track must have an output.
If you use the VST Out to send the clock (default setting), make sure that
the MIDI track is set to omni ("--") or MIDI channel 9 as O.Ch, as MIDI
clock ticks are sent on that channel (MIDI specification, it's not possible
to change that).
If it's no option to set it to that channel (e.g. because the corresponding
external Synth has to be set to another channel), just add an exclusive
MIDI track that uses no other MIDI data or Plugins and leave the O.Ch as it
defaults to omni.
Otherwise use the option to send the clock directly to a MIDI port and set
the VST Out to Thru or CCs only.
