Hello,
Two issues

1) Not sure if this is a feature request or I just missed something:

Upon booting kyma I currently go though the following process.

A) Boot App. Init Capy, Init Pacarana, Success.

B) Dialogue; No interface, click button.

C) Click button, Sends BCF Patch.

D) Select Midi Input as BCF

E) Prefs (apple + ,) > Performance, Click Other, Enter.

F) Click Performance Again, Select BCF, Enter. (Sends BCF Patch) (Enter to close)

Is there no way to negate, cutdown or simplify this process?

Issue 2
I have also had no success getting Kyma to show time code when routing the midi though the BCF2000, note and controllers work fine, infact, when i send the Paca timecode, it stops my patch playing back correctly, i just get a garbled sound from my tau patch. Very strange. I have rebooted a couple of times. I would send the timecode to the capy, yet you can't select two midi sources..

In summary;
Each time I turn on the MTC things get freaky and the time code stays at 0!

Many thanks

Charlie

(In other news, did someone say 'KeyPitch' 'Timeline' + "Record events' all in the same post? mmmmmmmm we can dream.)

Sorry to bother you with this one again....

I have had another go at getting my Paca to see MTC though the BCF.
The DSP Status recognises that it can see midi, (m) I have the logic offset at 0:0:0 etc
I also tried midi clock incase I was being a cretin.

Perhaps I should buy the midi net app. Does it work with MTC & will I still be able to select the BCF as my midi interface. so that I can still use the Motomix style functionality.

Thanks
Charlie

Ok, I read the documents, I am hoping PacaMidi (1.0.1) will solve all my problems...

WHOO HOOO, Houston, we have timecode. Wow, that is a completely civilised way to do it.
as a configuration process its amazing, I was expecting to at least type an IP somewhere... Perhaps not see it first time... No. I plugged the cable in, ehehe: I accidentally restarted my Pacarana with my nose! (a first for me)
I pushed go on the panel, and it appeared in logic.

Hurrah

I am having fun!
