Just got my MRCC and after a bit of smashing my head against a wall virtual cables make sense, all good! This is going to save me a lot of pain in the long run for sure. One thing I can't figure out and can't find references to anywhere is MPE compatibility or lack thereof. Here's my use case: I have my Linnstrument 128 connected to the MRCC via USB. Works. I route that to my Mac on Port 1. Cool. Ableton sees this and controls an MPE-enabled soft synth just fine, but only as a single channel MIDI device, not as an MPE controller. I can't seem to find any setting - either in Ableton or the MRCC - to tell either device that the Linnstrument is sending MPE data. By contrast, when I connect the Linnstrument via USB directly to my Mac, it knows that it's getting MPE data without me changing anything, and it works correctly, so this tells me that the Linnstrument is at least sending the right stuff.

So! Is MPE possible via MRCC? If so, what do I need to do to make it clear that that's what I want to send? Thanks!

Hello
Been a while since visiting this forum. Have been enjoying Elektron’s recent Firmware updates …

And on that note; Simple question - Has the MRCC firmware addressed the issue of ‘Program Change’ that will endeavour a greater potential in conjunction with the Elektron ‘Song Mode’ … ???

Btw. I’m still on the default MRCC firmware when I received the unit a few months ago now. 

Thanks

Flexing live NDLR with plenty of post in Cubase:

Motif : Hydrasynth --> Microcosm
Drone: NanoBass --> ME50B
Motif : Blofeld

On my MRCC it's often hard to tell if a PC OUT Port LED is lit (blue) or dim (pink). The difference is really subtle – even if I look at it from different angles. I tried all LED brightness levels, but that doesn't solve it. I assume it's mainly a hardware issue, because it's worse with some of the LEDs.

I guess a solution would be to switch the dimmed LEDs just completely off in a firmware update. Would that have any downsides?

Hello dear friends of the NDLR,

I would like to send the CV clock from my NDLR-1 via 1/8” / 3.5mm mono jacks CV OUT to the NDLR-2 CV IN.

The NDLR_1 gets the CV Clock via E-RM Multiklock and it works fine. However, I cannot transfer the CV clock from NDLR_1 to NDLR_2.

My configuration:
- NDLR_1: Boot Menu: ClkOut = ON
- NDLR_1; Encoder 3: ClockIn = ClkInCV (from Multiclock), works fine

- NDLR_2: Boot Menu: ClkOut = ON (get to Waldorf Iridium)
- NDLR_2; Encoder 3: ClockIn = ClkInCV (from NDLR_1),
Doesn't work, the NDLR_2 doesn't receive the clock from NDLR_1.

Does anyone have an idea to solve the problem? Is it possibly the connection cable used (mono) between NDLR_1 and NDLR_2?

Thank you very much for your help

Hello Team,

I recently noticed that the display on my MRCC is very hard to read, I've had it buried in the rack, and did not make any changes for ages, so I'm not sure if this is something new, or was like that for a longer time. Have anyone seen a similar issue?
Pictures, unfortunately, does not represent the issue accurately, it does look worse than on the pics

Hi!

Thank you for MRCC Video Course! It may be missed, but I recommend to watch it - it makes everything more clear.

I have question regarding (my new) knowledge about tempo and arturia devices (just watched #17). I use KSP as main clock source - it’s easiest and fastest way to change tempo. And it’s right, when I stop KPS sequencer, it stops sending tempo signals. I also use MRCC to send tempo and start/stop for few other machines.
Internal MRCC clock may send it all the time, but it’s based on internal clock only (correct me if i’m wrong). It is possible to use external clock source (KSP), but when it’s stopped, MRCC will keep sending tempo?

Thanks again for very useful videos.

Hey everyone! I recently purchased an mrcc 880 direct from the website. I got an order confirmation from the site but never got one to my email. Is this normal? Has anyone else experienced this when they purchased this device? The company is still in operation right?

Hello,

I was browsing the forum for some time and checked the manual, but I can't seem to find an answer to my question/idea for the live setup.

What I am thinking about is, using a small midi controller, plugged into INPUT 01 of MRCC
The main MIDI keyboard - IN 02 of MRCC
A number of rack synth modules plugged into OUT 1-8 DIN out
And being able to change which synth/port the main keyboard is sending the messages to, using the small MIDI controller from INPUT 01
The 3 solutions that came to my mind are:

- Changing MRCC presets from the midi controller, and having a different routing on each one of them - this doesn't sound ideal
- Hooking up "BLOKAS MIDIHUB" between the main midi keyboard and MRCC - and change the output midi channel based on the midi note from some small midi controller plugged to the MIDIHUB as well

I would like to avoid involving a PC for this, also part 2 of the plan is to control SampleTank Reverb and Delay over midi from the same small midi controller, on the other side of the studio, a bit further from the FX themselves and MRCC itself... 

Is there any easier way of achieving this by any chance? Seems like a simple thing, but somehow I can't come up with a better solution.

Any help is much appreciated.

Bought a MRCC used.  One of the USB ports has its associated LED very dimly flashing amber.  Nothing is plugged into MRCC. Power cycle does not clear it.

 Any suggestions?

Thank you!
