Master Or Slave - Arturia KEYSTEP PRO User Manual

4.1.7. Master or Slave

KeyStep Pro can be the clock master for an entire MIDI rig, or it can just as happily serve
as a slave to several clock sources. Clock In and Clock Out can synchronize with older clock
types such as 2, 24 or 48 ppqn (pulses per quarter note), or even a single pulse per step.
Whether the KeyStep Pro will send or receive MIDI Clock signals and send or receive
Transport Signals (Start-Stop-Continue) will depend on the corresponding settings in
Utility>MIDI Settings.

♪: While the unit is playing a sequence, the Sync settings cannot be changed.
