How can I sync Cubase 5 and Pro Tools 12? I want to make Cubase the master and Pro Tools the slave. Essentially, I want to press play, stop, rewind, scrub left, right and have pro tools follow.
I am a using Windows 10
I already have an Ethernet cable and ipMidi, I just can’t seem to get them to work. Someone please help
There are on 2 different computers. The goal is to have cubase (master) as my sequencer and pro tools (slave) to run video simultaneously. This is for film scoring.
This is a very common film scoring set up for Mac users but apparently not so common for windows users. Please help
I have tried it. It does not work. It seems like either MTC or MMC has to be used instead of midi clock in order to make both computers run simultaneous.
Of course you have to use MIDI Timecode. MIDI clock is not for transport sync.
Send MTC to Pro Tolls, there make sure, the Project start times and / or MTC offdets are set correctly.
In the Cubase “project synchronisation setup” set the “MIDI Timecode destination” which one that is depends on the used hard- or in your case software. Connect the two computers in a way, thex receive the MIDI data. For the correct Pro Tools settings you should probably refer to the pro Tools manual, or a pro tools forum. I don’ t use it, so I can’t tell you. Basically you need to set the port with the incoming MTC (not MIDI clock), and probbaly adjust the timecode range for the project.
I have tried this but it doesn’t work. I do know that my midi connections work because I have sync FL studio to FL Studio and that works. I just can’t seem to sync Cubase (master) and PT (slave)
