Send MIDI clock to other devices

Hi there,

I just want to send the tempo (BEAT clock) from BandHelper to other devices: my app SynthOne (on the IPad) and my Headrush looper (connected to the IPad thourgh a USB/MIDI interface myoXC).
Indeed, when I'm using an Arpeggiator, I want it to be synchronized with the tempo.

So I Read The F.... Manual. ;-)
In section "To send beat clock (tempo) messages",
1. I turned on the "Send MIDI beat clock" option: OK :)
2. Edit a song and enter a tempo value: OK :)
3. Save the song to reload the Songs list, or navigate to a set list or smart list, and tap the Tempo button (I succeeded to add the tempo button) for a song: the tempo is playing on the Ipad/BandHelper: I don't want that. But my main issue is still the same: the tempo in SynthOne and the looperboad does not change.

How can I fix that?

Thanks for your support.

Lolo

After clicking the Tempo button to start the tempo, you can look at the MIDI button in the top toolbar to see if it's blinking; that indicates that BandHelper is sending the MIDI beat clock messages. You can also click that button and look at the Activity Log to see if there are outgoing beat clock messages.
