Synth drift

Post by Sormast »

Hi to everyone. Synthesizers (MiniMax, U K. 007...) drift (especially noticeable on high bpm). Treated? Sampler does not want. How will the people ever bass (and all other) on analog use? Floats awful

@sormast, you panic? because of bad midi timing in your setup?

Try changing Timecode Source > MIDI Timecode to Internal Timecode. Maybe that what you mean but it is hard to understand what you want. But I hope that helps.

It is obligatory for MIDI Device to create? Because without it mistiming. Internal Timecode should be adjusted or to leave by default?

what do you need midi timecode for?

for kick me and minimax it's not needed.

For other tools such as arpeg02, you only need midi clock and there isn't a timecode option, so better you don't send timecode where it is not required.

You don't need to add scope devices as external instruments, it's enough to control them over midi ports from the sequencer.

Without MIDI Device at tools mistiming. Shift to the right

sorry Sormast, it is still unclear to me which problem you are having.

The sample you uploaded is around 145.7 bpm and has some randomness in the attack of the sound.

If the bpm is ok, then the randomness in the attack can be caused by different factors.

I encountered a similar problem when midi notes were doubled and the scope synth was set to 1 voice of polyphony, then i discovered that my master keyboard was sending the same midi notes twice due to a wrong setup, so disabled that function, solved the problem.

It would be useful if you tell us how is your setup, daw(cubase i guess), audio driver, samplerate, how you record or create midi parts, how you record the audio, etc.

tell please about that problem in more detail. how to disconnect. this that is possible.
daw - cubase, audio driver - scope asio, samplerate - 44.100, midi - "External instruments", next MIDI Device (without the out-of-sync).

Here's how my Project Sync Set-up window looks. Also, do not use External Instruments.

Personally I never use Cubase's mixer. I route via ASIO from Cubase into a Scope mixer. You can plug all your Scope synths and effects into the Scope mixer. You can then feed the result back into Cubase for recording. There is no latency this way.

Have you adjusted the ULLI in Scope:Set>Settings>ULLI for a low setting?
