Ardour. The user guide says:
"the arpeggiator will synchronize to the MIDI Clock and Start
messages received from a connected MIDI device."
The audio card is a 1010LT. The Microstation is connected through
USB and is fully seen in jack (qjackctl). Is it possible to have
MIDI sync for the external synth ? How would the wiring be done ?
Will there be a need for an Ardour MIDI track for the Start (and
possibly Stop) signals ?
Ardour already has a "MIDI clock out" You should be able to "mix"
this with the midi stream going to the korg if you are using jack
midi. Connect your normal midi out to the 1010 port going to the korg
and then connect MIDI clock out to the same 1010 port.
If you are not using a midi channel to do the actual note press input
then it is only one connection.
Note: I don't have the devices in question so I am just theorizing.
Hmmmm.. The 1010LT has MIDI in and out jacks. Currently not used since
the Korg is connected using USB. In Qjackctl's MIDI pane I see Ardour's
various MIDI connections, MMC, MTC, although in Qjackctl's MIDI pane,
Ardour is by itself. There's nothing else to connect to.
My mistake, I saw the 1010 and just figured that was what you are using
for MIDI. However, the same applies to a USB midi. Your korg should also
show up in the MIDI panel. If you are seeing only Ardour in your MIDI
panel of the qjackctl connections window, You probably need to run
a2jmidid. The command to use is:
a2j_control ehw start
This should be run after jack is already running. It can be added to
qjackctl's Setup->Options page in the "Execute script after Startup:".
It will stop all on it's own when jack goes away.
What is this 'jack midi' you have mentioned ?
a2jmidid will connect ALSA to MIDI. The MIDI tab in qjackctl is jack MIDI
and the ALSA tab is alsa midi.
