MIDI clocks missing

v2 Custom framework Feature requests
#1

I am trying to monitor midi clocks coming in to my Yaeltex controller and I’m not seeing them. My software is monitoring the Hachi midi in, and I have it set to copy DIN and USB midi in to both midi outs. When I monitor midi messages, I see notes and controllers, but no midi realtime at all – no start, stop, or timing clock.

For comparison, I’m using the same setup to monitor another device (Launchpad) and I can see the realtime messages there. Java on Mac has some issues with midi realtime, but this isn’t that.

Hi @mike!

We haven’t yet implemented the handlers for these messages (clock, play, stop), since we weren’t yet planning to use them.

We can try to squeeze them in for v0.15. So there’ll be a function that will be called when these messages arrive to the controller, but implementing functionality for them will be on your side, for now.

I’ll keep you updated!

Ah, okay. Well put it on the ever-growing feature request list. :slight_smile:

I’ll assume I’m getting my clocks from a separate midi interface for now. I think I have to do the same for my midi output – in order to make sure I don’t echo my own commands back to myself, I’ll need to put the controller input and output on separate channels which will use up 4 channels just for control.
