Is there a Looper that works?

OK, that indeed gets me someplace. I can finally hear the click of ALO!

Thank you @Baggypants !

But as I understand, via this post from @riban

Internal midi clock for running sequencer layers?

Ive been playing around with PureData, and Im interested in getting generative midi sequencer type patches working internally on the Zynthian. The problem is that I cant for the life of me work out how to start a Midi clock so that sequencers etc will start running and then start spitting out notes. Im using and loving Zynseq, but this is a different use case altogether, though I assume the answer lies somewhere within how Zynseq works. Ive played with the Midi Clock plugin, but Im not sure i…

It is not possible to run the “Zynquencer” to an external MIDI-Clock coming from DIN-MIDI? Or any other hardware clock? And I can’t find the internal tempo setting anywhere, I guess my feud with loopers is still going strong. Or/and I am not very good at bold clicking…

If so, what could be a workaround/solution to this, still a PD patch, maybe?

In this thread I think @riban says, that the internal sequencer does run on external MIDI clock. And indeed, it already reacts to start/stop commands.

Thanks again for your patience.

EDIT

I start getting around my confusion. In the wiki I found:

"There is currently no mechanism to lock to external MIDI clock but a Zynthian MIDI effects layer may be used to create MIDI clock output. There is a plan to improve this support in a future update. "

But a bit earlier in the Wiki:

"Tempo may also be altered by external modules, e.g. MIDI player. "

And then somewhere else (sorry for not finding that one anymore, I’ve already have too many open tabs), sth like this “it is possible to set MIDI-Player to external clock”.

But there I only find options for Loop Mode and Start Recording

In an earlier thread riban said that Zynsequencer is running from external MIDI clock BUT that was only in the first proof of concept, I guess.

Could you please confirm the conclusion @riban?

TO CONCLUDE

At the moment there is no way to sync Zynthian Sequencer to any extrernal MID-Clock
