Appendix D: RMV to Host Syncronization
The tempo and bar position of the RMV is always in sync with the host application.
However, it is possible to choose whether or not a particular module plays back its internal
MIDI data when the host applications transport is started. This function is controlled by the
“H” Host Sync switch.
Position of the “H” Host Sync switch for the MIDI Grooves
Position of the “H” Host Sync switch for the Audio Loops
The “H” Host Sync function is intended to be used as follows. Usually, when you build up
your drum and percussion parts, you will let each module (MIDI Groove and Audio Loop)
run in sync with the host application so that you can try things out and see how they fit
together.
Once the drum and percussion parts are completed, you drag the MIDI file (either a MIDI
Groove file or an Audio Loop MIDI file) to the host application using the respective “D”
button. Once the MIDI file is transferred to the host application you will not want the RMV
to continue playing back the respective module's internal MIDI data as this would result in
two files being played at once – one in the host application and another in the RMV. To
stop this happening, the “H” Host Sync switch enables the module's internal MIDI player to
be switched off so that only the MIDI data in the host application triggers the RMV. In
practice, this means that when the “H” Host Sync switch is on, the module's MIDI data will
not be used for playback. Note however that the internal MIDI data can still be played back
by using the “Play” button in the module.
