Syncing MicroKorg to Logic Pro x midi clock

Vermillion · Post by **Vermillion** » Thu Jun 25, 2020 4:09 pm

I'm using Logic Pro X on a MacBook Pro with a Focusrite interface, connecting my MicroKorg via audio and Midi, trying to get Logic to be the master time clock for the MicroKorg arpeggiator. Midi cables from Focusrite OUT to Korg IN and Korg OUT to Focusrite IN. I have all the right midi sync midi settings in Logic but not sure what the settings should be in the Korg. Logic is seeing Korg midi but the arpegiator tempo does not sync with Logic song tempo, just moves independently.

Any help much appreciated!

Hi,

Set MIDI Clock to auto or preferably to external.
Typically when set to external and no clock is received, the arpeggiator won't work.
Probably you are by default in auto mode. As the mK does not see any clock coming in, it switches back to its internal clock and hence does not sync.

So I think it might be a problem of the your Logic Pro setup...

Have fun!
