Hi I´m peppe from Sweden and this will be my tenth stepsequencer over the years I think. I will use it to conrol stuff I built in Reaktor and max/Ableton live will record it´s midi. So… I will only use the USB midi and opend up Ableton and was hoping I could see some new midi inputs/ouputs and need some guidence to set it up. I have printed out the manual and reading back and forward and stuff is really stright forward but just much! Happy to be aboard 🙂 ---

I wrote the squarp guys as i don’t manage to get clock to pyramid. In midi in settings i put pyramid to recive clock and start and stop. I get a midi interface in a few days and hopefully i will get it to work then as using USB dont work for me ---

It’s hard to help without knowing what exactly you have done etc, as you noticed there are a _lot_ of options. Did you notice that USB-MIDI has its own sync-settings? I don’t know the first thing about Ableton but it gets mentioned here quite a bit. Searching the forum would be a good idea. ---

Hi thanks for your reply. Yes i have put pyramid in slave mode in midi in/usb in pyramid settings. But it wont start. I’m getting a usb midi interface this week i hope. ---

Does it receive/send anything besides power over USB? (check in the midi-monitor) Some USB cables lack the data wires entirely. There’s also an “USB on/off” setting in the misc department, manual speaks of output, no idea if it affects input too. And of course the DAW-side will need some configuration too, but I don’t use those so can’t help with that. ---
