Hi everyone, I have a Q regarding sync. The weird part is that this may be
normal, I'm not sure. When I press play in Paris, Cubase starts rolling but
always slows down, then speeds up and then after about 15 seconds, seems to
stabilise. Is this normal using ADAT sync?
Here is the setup:
(Computer 1)Paris Adat sync out via 9pin serial cable into (Computer2 )Scope
syncplate 9pin Serial running Cubase SX3. In Cubase, I am using the ASIO
Audio device setting, sample rate is set the same in Paris and Scope. I
setup a midi click in Cubase via my old D4 and its very un-stable at first
as mentioned above. When I try the audio click in cubase, it sounds solid
but I can still see the timeline jump ahead and then slow down. When I try
midioverLan to sync, it works perfect but is not sample accurate over time
as is ADAT sync, correct? Is this normal? Does the DAKOTA, have this issue
syncing Cubase to Paris via ADAT?

Thanks in advance
Regards
Robert

Thanks Don, are you using the "ASIO Audio device " in Cubase sync options?

Dear Rob,
Have you loaded inside scope sfp environement Syncplate source ?
I assume you have a syncplate addon card and thats why you have connected
Paris adat sync to syncplate's adat sync in, right ?
Now by openeing the Syncpale source under tools you have to select the same
MTC settings i.e 25 frames etc...
Then you have to use the ASIO2 dest64 module and there connect the Clk1 with
syncplate's clk out.
Have you done all these ?
Midi is NOT needed.
Regards,
Dimitrios

Hi Di, yes I have the syncplate source in my scope patchbay and I have the
same frame rate in Paris, and in syncplate setting but I was using the "
ASIO2 DEST" module and not the "ASIO2 DEST64" Do you think this would
cause it? Will try tonight when I get home.

This is where I was using the "ASIO2 dest" module.

Hi Di, i tried the ASIO2 dest64 module in scope and get the same results. I
included an mp3 of the click track. Man this is puzzling. I thought maybe
this was normal coming from the old ADAT days where it took a few seconds to
get everything locked-up properly but you guys running adat sync aren't
experiencing this at all rite?

Rob

I don't use it right now but when I used it don't remember any such behaviour...
Regarding midi why do you use midi ??
Have you made Cubase follow the ASIO 2.0 sync option ??
NOT the Midi timecode neither the MMC option.
When using the asio 2 sync option midi is not needed in any way for syncing.
The bars info comes from adat sync...

Dimitrios

Di, I don't use midi to sync, only midi within Cubase for a click.
Basically; Paris tells Cubase to start rolling via adat sync (scope), then
Cubase sends a click signal via midi (scope midi out) to and external tone
generator (D4) and I monitor the D4 audio output back into a Paris channel,
that is the mp3 you heard. But I have tried using midi to sync via
"midioverlan" in Paris and Cubase and it starts rite up and is stable (no
strange wobble @ first). Yes I have the ASIO 2.0 sync option enabled. I'm
gonna check my 9pin D-sub connector tonight, maybe its bad or the wrong one.
It is a regular straight-thru 9 pin, not a null correct?
Thanks Dimitrios
Regards,
Robert
