I just don't have time to sift thru 160,000 posts to get some advice! I have Ensoniq PARIS 2.1 on IBM sync'd to Logic 1.7 on ATARI 1040 ST The sync used to work, but now a year later into the project the sync is garbage! The two computers are almost 2 BPM off!!!! I am using SMPTE MTC. I do have the Logic 2.0 upgrade, but didn't do it B'cuz everything was fine B4. Now it is time to mix and master, and I can't get it to sync to save my life, much less my business. I even loaded the original files from when it DID sync, and they don't sync either! Time to re-install logic? PARIS? HELP????

Use MIDI Clock (aka MIDI Beat Clock) instead. Then the two tempi will be locked together. Or maybe you actually changed the tempo on either Logic or Paris after the fact? Then it definitely won't synch like it used to. f-erenc szabo, smarty pants Z+E+R+O+B+E+A+T "NOW POWERED BY THE MIRACLE OF THE TRANSISTOR!"

PARIS does not send MIDI Clock, only MTC. The two tempi are the same. I even opened an old file from when the sync was tight, and--same thing! If I advance the Atari Logic tempo approx. 1.8995 BPM faster than the PARIS tempo (i.e. PARIS at 120, Atari Logic at 121.8995) I can get pretty close. But this is like having 2 turntables with the same record on them, and trying to beat match them, and keep them matched for an entire song! At that point, what's the use of sync??? Why did it used to work, and then suddenly is way off (by about 1.8995 bpm)? Pat Alternative Recording Studio, Wisconsin, USA
