You can toggle and set the metronome from the Metronome Live Bar Button found in the Live Bar at the lower right corner of the OnSong user interface. You can set the tempo and time signature of the metronome for each song in the Playback Menu or by setting Metadata in the Song Editor or with the Metadata Editor. OnSong has both an audio and visual metronome to work in any scenario. OnSong has a built-in metronome that plays to the tempo you set for every song in your library. Very frustrating with important gigs in new rooms this weekend.Playing to a click track is a great way to work on your tempo personally and as a band. No, I don’t use any backing, I don’t even use the bass tracks on the BB, I change that kit straight away, I loop like crazy, hence the need for everything to be super tight, and I have an electric duo with a bass player, so with the looper we sound like a 4-5 piece ( we both also play keys ) …So its just getting the BB in sync with the Infinity, and it was until yesterday, I didn’t actually change anything, just all of a sudden the looper started reading the 2 or 3 as the 1 ( same as Hendrik above - who is using a different looper so its not the loop device its the midi signal ) … Its weird when it does it too. Hi, thanks for all of that, very interesting.
Do you play to backing tracks and if so what device do you play the tracks on? SLM will send out a midi clock and I have managed to get the BB to sync to it. I am not sure this will solve you issue but it provides a number of additional options to look at and gives you more flexibility. And then you specify the channel to receive on the BB in the settings menu. The separate channels can be set up In SLM (or OnSOng I think). You can then feed the midi out from the iPad to whatever device(s) you have. As for the midi links between iPad and other devices I use the iRig Midi 2 ( ) which can work with a power supply from IK Multimedia to keep the iPad powered up ( ) - this setup is a little expensive but works well. I think this is possible in OnSong too but it is a little more difficult to manage there. I send commands to the VoiceLive3 to turn on harmonies, guitar boost etc. Or you could send midi to a compatible effects pedal to turn it on or off. Automation in this context allows you to record events against a backing track that can be played back in sync with the backing track and can be used to send midi to the BB to effect a transition for example. but SLM has much better management of midi commands and automation. SLM is a separate app and has many of the features of OnSong too. Its the BB midi clock in the intro’s ( and no the looper doesn’t need a bit of time to sync, as soon as you set the tempo on the BB it knows what the count is. I use the Pig because it has the BEST midi clock sync going around, but now it also is glitching. The guy above ( Henrik ) same problem with different looper.
#Visual metronome full
The issue does seem to happen more with full songs, both user created and purchased, but is also happening with beats. Up until then, my sync worked perfectly, I am a full time player and have been using the BB 4 nights a week no problem. If you wait until the entire intro finishes and then loop over the main part, it works, but until yesterday, I was able to loop on the intro seamlessly, I hadn’t done anything to change it, it just started misfiring all of a sudden. However in the intro, the midi clock is telling it that the 2 or the 3 is the 1, so if you start your loop in the intro phase, when the screen goes green and the main part starts, your loop is badly out of sync. The Infinity gives you a visual beat count, highlighting the “1” where the loop will start recording so you can hit the record switch early and get the loop dead perfect. Ok so tried rolling back to 1.4, epic fail, that firmware doesn’t have half the things I need, so back to 1.8 … BUT, I have worked out that this issue, and its recent, is with the intro’s.
