Midi Clock problem w. BPM (Global)

I'm getting a bad midi clock read with BPM (Global). A BPM of 126 reads 6839 in the BPM (Global) module. X-Ray's M-BPM-MIDI reads corectly, however. Is this a bug or are different MIDI devices using different MIDI clock defaults? (I'm using the BPM analyzer RED Microsync Beat Xtractor).

Regards,
Fry up

did not have any problems with midi clock, for me it works perfect. I`m using a yamaha external hardware sequencer.

Hello,

I had the same problem reading a Midi BPM with that module.... I was trying to read a Midi clock from a freeware program called MidiClock...

Now I use the Module "M-BPM-Midi" to receive the Midi clock and it works fine.

Seems strange, I had using MidiClock for the development of this module.
Witch version of modul8 do you use ?

Hi!

I'm using the final release 2.5. The BPM (global) picks up about 3900 from MidiClock, which is set at 130.

I'm on a G5, dual 2.0. Os 10.4.8. I tried starting MidiClock first, then M8.

I just checked it out on my MacBook, and it works fine though :)

I can just as well set BPM manually... was just checking MIDI out...

Thanks!

I made this module from my intel macBook and you'r right the module have some trouble on a G5 computer with thw midi clock (I didn't test it on a G4).
It seems to have a problem with the midi time stamp on modul8, we will fix it for the next version.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

I have a similar problem. I'm using version 2.5.4 on a mac mini. If I use the midi clock from either Live or MidiClock, Modul8 syncs to the actual bpm times 3, so a bpm of 100 in Live results in a BPM of 300 in Modul8.

Your mac mini is intel or g4 ?
