Make sure to only use a single MIDI cable coming OUT of the PC MIDI interface going IN to the MIDI IN of the SQ2. The reason for this is to avoid creating a data loop by have both In and Out MIDI cables connected (there are ways to do this properly when both cables are connected but I'll bypass those details here). As for a free program to transmit the SysEx data, try MIDI-OX HERE. This is a MIDI monitor program that is very handy and it also functions as a SysEx data transfer utility. MIDI time code is an example of a System Common message. System Real-Time messages provide for synchronization, and include MIDI clock and Active Sensing. System Exclusive messages. System Exclusive (SysEx) messages are a major reason for the flexibility and longevity of the MIDI standard.

By Mark WherryThe Synchronisation Setup window is where you can configure how Cubase sends sync data to other devices as the Master, or receives it from other devices as a Slave.If you get that sync'ing feeling when using Cubase in conjunction with external hardware devices, you may need to know more about its synchronisation options. We explain what's what.The basic principle when synchronising multiple devices in the studio is that you have one Master device that sends sync data to all the other devices, which are said to be Slave devices, in as much as they are 'slaved' to the Master. When you press play on the Master device, for example, all the slaved devices will begin playback at the same time, and a continuous clock signal from the Master will make sure the Slave devices stay in sync.Cubase 's synchronisation facilities are actually pretty comprehensive, and Cubase can act as either the Master or the Slave — or, in fact, as both at the same time. In this latter configuration, the software can control devices while itself being controlled from another device — for example, Cubase might be slaved to a video machine while simultaneously sending clock data to a synth's arpeggiator.For Cubase 's synchronisation features to be active, the Sync button on the Transport panel must be enabled, which you can do by simply clicking it, pressing 'T', or selecting Transport / Sync Online. To configure the synchronisation settings in Cubase, you need to use the Synchronisation Setup window, which can be opened by selecting Transport / Sync Setup or Control/Apple-clicking the Sync button on the Transport Panel. Since the release of Cubase SX/L, many users have reported problems when slaving other devices to Cubase via MIDI Clock. If you're slaving Cubase to timecode sourced from an analogue tape machine, which I'm told some people still do, the signal might not be quite as reliable as if it was coming from a synth or another device generating the timecode internally.

For this reason, you might want to adjust the Drop Out Time setting in the Options group of the Synchronisation Setup window, which tells Cubase how many frames to keep going for when the timecode signal 'drops out'.If you notice Cubase occasionally pausing when playback is slaved to timecode from a tape recorder, you might want to increase the Drop Out Time value. However, doing this means that Cubase will take longer to cease playback when you stop the tape recorder, since it will assume it's a drop out until the Drop Out Time value expires.

So if your tape recorder is actually sending a reliable timecode signal it's a good idea to reduce this value, to make Cubase more responsive when you stop the recorder.A closely related option to the Drop Out Time value is the Lock Time parameter, which sets how many accurately-timed frames of timecode Cubase should receive before starting playback based on the location of the incoming timecode. If you notice Cubase starting playback at the wrong timecode position, before jumping to the correct timecode position, you might want to try increasing the Lock Time value. Conversely, if you have a really efficient tape machine you might want to reduce this value so that Cubase locks to the incoming timecode sooner and everything feels a little snappier.When Cubase is being slaved to another device, you can see via the Sync indicator on the Transport Panel whether incoming sync data is being received. When the Sync button is disabled, this indicator will report an Offline status, but when you activate the Sync button and Cubase is slaved to another timecode source, the Sync indicator will report either an Idle status (meaning that Cubase is waiting to receive timecode), or a Locked status, which confirms that Cubase is locked to an incoming timecode, and also displays the frame rate of the timecode.

The Frame Rate setting in the Project Setup window is automatically adjusted, and the Project's frame rate is instead determined by whichever device is sending the Master timecode to Cubase.

Hey folks.Maybe that's an already answered question and maybe i'm just a newbiebut here's the problem. I have an old Ensoniq kt-76 that follows me every concert. It uses these old pcmcia cards to store all it's settings, but i dont have one of those. I deal with a huge problem when I have to replace my keyboard's battery, because all my memory goes to waste. So I wonder: is there any method to store all it's sounds and settings via midi/usb cable? Is there any specific software for that?I appreciate very much you guys attention.thanks =). I've had trouble with those USB Midi cables too.

I don't think they can handle more than a certain length of sysex codes and you should get a proper midi interface and midi cables if doing any bulky types of transfers to a computer.Anyway, I'd suggest a PCMCIA card and possibly a USB to PCMCIA reader if you want to transfer files between it and a computer. Or just get the card if you tempory place to store the files while replacing battery.Doing midi file dumps sucks midi balls, avoid if possible, but may be good to learn as someday I guess it can be usefull to know that c.p.Good luck!

Do they not have a format feature on the ensoniqs for their proprietary file structure if that is the case?I'm no ensoniq expert, never even had one, but I'd be kind of surprised if it isn't using FAT16. Are you sure it isn't just the file types that have proprietary formatting, and not the allocation table?Mute point If they don't have a choice anyway.I recommend the Focusrite Scarlett 2i4. It is what I use and haven't had any troubles with sending/receiving long sysex codes and bulk dumps on it. You might find a cheaper usb midi interface that'll do the job tho, but prob should stay away from those cheap usb midi interface cables. They seem to only be good for most standard midi messages, note on/off CCs, clock etc., beyond that they are garbage. On the other hand they are so cheap if it happens to work than you saved a bunch of money, if not then you haven't wasted all that much money.

I tried to check the KT-76 manual to see what it says about the PCMCIA card but I can't find the complete manual, so section 13 'Storage' is unavailable to confirm or deny the format of the card. Maybe julionp can get back to us?

Personally I would be surprised if it wasn't proprietary on a machine of this vintage, but that's just conjecture. Question number one: in what mode does KT's PCMCIA interface operate?

Either memory or ATA interface is supported, the former being a fast derivative of NVRAM (usually 1 or 2 MB). The latter is just simple IDE/ATA interface on top of PC Card architecture. If Ensoniq's interface supports ATA, you're in luck - a simple SD Card PCMCIA reader is required, it will only require installing some software to actually read the card (dd is your friend). If only the memory interface is supported, you're most likely out of luck anyway.
