    Hello, I have a problem with maschine that maybe you can help me solve. I have five days to solve it :(

    A friend of mine has bought an akai mpc live and yesterday we were synchronizing my maschine and his akai. Everything works fine with maschine as master and akai as slave, but once the slave presses stop and tries to resume the song, synchronization between the two is lost.

    This is not a novelty for me, I had tried to sync a korg kaossilator pro + and maschine, but it happened to me exactly the same. if I stopped the reproduction in the kaossilator while in maschine continued reproducing, after a while I tried to reproduce again the patterns kept in the kaossilator, and the synchronicity was completely lost.

    We do not want that maschine sends play / stop messages, we want to stop each one of our machines in the middle of the concert and the other continues to sound, resume after a while and follow the tempo. If it does not work, the only solution would be to never stop playing during the concert. Thank you, sorry for the english and see if you can help me. A greeting.

    You need to use MMC not MTC, look that up.

    Can you upload two screen dumps, from midi in and the midi out settings.
    As set when both devices are connected.

    Have you tried using Ableton Link to sync tempo and phrases? If not, I'd recommend it.

    As long as you remember to enable it on all devices it's needed, I've had much success using it live (with Maschine and Ableton Live on two different laptops connected via ethernet).
