Midi Issues

[prince]

Hopefully someone can help me. I can't make my Fostex D-160 recorder lock or sync with anything. My setup consists of

PC with Logic audio platinum: linked to
- Midiman usb midisport 4 x 4 midi sync box
which has midi ins & outs running to
- 2 keyboards
- Fostex D-160 hard disk recorder
and of course the computer via usb

My keyboards sync to my pc with logic fine and dandy, but the D-160 isn't locking to anything. I know it probably means configuring Logic and the Fostex to transmit/receive certain messages but I've tried everything.

I know it's a bit obscure, but if anyone could help or point me to someone who could help I'd be very happy :roll:

Does the D-160 natively use MTC?

Yes it's a MMC/MTC issue. I think there's an optional sync card you'll need in order for this to work. It's a little more to it than just connecting the midi ins & outs.
