Ableton / Mio xl / hapax

For clocks you don’t need to use midi, instead you can use CV sync to the hapax.

How I got Hapax and Ableton Live into nearly perfect sync with M4L

The Problem: Like many producers, I use Hapax with Ableton Live. However, the synchronization of Live and Hapax remains an issue: If I slave Live to Hapax or other external clock, I get wonky timing. Specially after receiving transport signals, Ableton Live likes to lose track of the clock, resulting in pitched effects from any clock synced effects like delays. The alternative is to sync Hapax to Ableton. But then I need to keep track of Ableton transports, figure out how to start or stop the DA…

I currently have my Hapax connected to the MioXL through the 4 din+trs midi ports to connect to all of the synths and prevent collisions. I’m really hoping that squarp will support multiple usb midi connections because I already have trouble with multi-timbral instruments and just 4 din/trs and 2 usb ports.
