Sync Source - Social Entropy ENGINE User Manual

GLOBAL CONFIG

SYNC SOURCE

Engine can be set to synchronize to different clocks. This includes MIDI clock (default),
DIN Sync clock or the internal clock.
When Engine is set to either MIDI or Internal clock, the DIN Sync port will send DIN sync.
If Engine is set to sync to DIN Sync, the DIN Sync port dynamically switches to become
an input port.
To change the sync source setting, while in CONFIG mode, press and hold SYNC
SOURCE (step 11) button, then rotate control knob one to select the desired source.
The current sync source will be shown on the LED display while holding the SYNC
SOURCE button.
TIP: When syncing to an external clock, you can still start the internal
clock. This allows the sequencer to continue running even if the
external clock is stopped. When the master clock sends a new
start, playback will automatically realign with the master clock and
continue. This is useful during live performance when a master
may need to be stopped to make changes, while Engine continues
playback.
NOTE: When syncing to external clock, if clock messages stop arriving
without a MIDI Stop, the sequencer will fall back to internal clock
after two seconds.
