u-he • Re: Repro 1: clock rate vs LFO speed

We do not encourage modulating clock rate, because drift and thus running out of sync would be inevitable. You can try this for yourself by MIDI Learning the Clock parameter, play a sequence and switch tempo. After very short time, the notes will be out of sync.

The same will happen when using the LFO. Unfortunately I'm on vacation and thus can't verify any formula to match LFO speed to clock rates, but I'm afraid I doubt that a 128-step MIDI controller will hit the exact values needed.

To be fair, there are ways around this, but they require a different paradigm and feature set than what the reference hardware was about. We have tried to solve this in Hive, but even then modulating sequencer clock rate often leads to unexpected results.
Thanks. So you are saying that the very fact of modulating the clock rate means that it will stop playing in time even when there is no modulation actually happening?
