NDLR not recieving midi clock from FORCE

[Jesse Johannesen]

FWIW I am having the opposite issue - either my NDLR is not sending the MIDI clock (DIN or USB) or it is and the Force no longer recognizes it.

I have tested with these versions:
NDLR FW 1.1066 to 1.1071
Force FW 3.04 and 3.05

I have tested MIDI out settings in the NDLR boot menu with no luck as well.

I am also a beta tester for the Force and the NDLR is the only gear in my studio that does not send MIDI clock.

It shouldn't be too hard to test if the NDLR is sending clock. If you have a PC there is free software called MIDIox that will allow you to monitor incoming MIDI messages real time. You will need to open one of the NDLR ports as a MIDI device in the settings menu, then you can select the 4th icon on the menu bar (the red-barred terminal icon) to monitor incoming data in real time. The clock tics show up as "timing clock" events. If they are present they should show up there. Let me know how it goes.

Thanks Jesse. The Force has a MIDI monitoring feature/screen and I only see notes coming from Motif 1 and 2 of the NDLR. It seems different depending on my settings in the NDLR Boot menu.

My suggestion is to try to use another device to check if those messages are present, since the question is whether the NDLR is not outputting clock, or that the Force is not receiving it. By using MIDIox you should be able to rule the NDLR in or out as the problem in the equation.
