So there are a few other videos out there trying to show how to slave the RC-505 to other clocks in outboard sequencers. I tried all day to get it to work and all it ended up doing was clobbering the tempo in my sequences in the memory of the 505. So I got real lucky and found this video of yours. I took your advise, well somebody's advice anyway, to use the RC-505 as the master. It works like a dream. It sends the tempo of the sequence that I have stored in the memory. So when I hit All Start and All Stop the Arturia BeatStep Pro fires off with it too. It then displays the new clock speed for each song tested. It sinks right up and starts playing the outboard gear that the BeatStep Pro has already loaded. So Each song I have in the Loop Station has a default loop set to the clock speed I develop the sequences with. That loop is set to run in #1 and stored to memory. I bring up the corresponding tracks in the BeatStep Pro to mach that work. I also have a KeyStep keyboard that get's slaved from the RC-505 for it's clock speed also. It has another independent sequencer that allows the performer to drop the last note while the sequence is playing. So what is amazing is that the recorded loops in the Loop Station can have 8, 16, 32, or 64 steps by recording an original sequence from a saved sequence in the KeyStep before hand, and then have the same sequence trigger a different synth with a dropped note in the sequence. So now the Loop Station is playing back 8 steps or 16 steps while the KeyStep is syncopating with 7 or 15 steps per pass. All this can work together for complex loop lengths of 64 steps to start with. The amazing thing is that this video of yours solved all those headaches. I just mute one of the sequences in the BeatStep Pro and let the 505 take over after it is looped in live. What is cool then is I have a couple of sequenced loops in the 505 that can be deleted after they are used up and un-muted in the BeatStep sequencer. They are still there in the BeatStep. They just are not going out to the audience. That leaves a ton of soloing opportunities and a bunch of live tracks to add from real instruments and other synths. This will make everything change for the Berlin School type music crowd. All this because the audio recorder is the master sync clock. I'm still putting it all together. But my experiments today took on an amazing turn. The KeyStep can drop the last note on the fly. It allows for improvisation while in sequences. ...was that geeky enough? -- Thanks for the tip.

In your video preceding this, you begin your demo with a beatbox and by saying you prefer the freedom of working without the RC505 metronome function. Here, your demonstration of how midi clocks the Circuit and the Effects begins with a beatbox and you make no mention of the metronome and none is to be heard. The RC505 is detecting the tempo of your beatbox as if it was a tap tempo and broadcasting the Midi accordingly. That is a really impressive function.

Hi, I might need an advice. Here is how I connected my stuff: All instruments > Mixer Input (Sub mix) Mixer Sub Output > RC505 Input RC505 stereo output > Mixer Input (Main mix) Mixer Main Output > Speakers One of my instruments is a vocal effect processor TC Helicon VE with a mic and a MIDI keyboard (for vocoder) connected to it. Would it be better to connect separately : TC Helicon MIDI IN > RC505 MIDI OUT Keyboard MIDI OUT > RC505 MIDI IN Would there still be connection between the TC Helicon and the Keyboard even though they are not directly connected? Keep going with the great work, man!

[@ReinhardtBuhr]

It all depends what you use as your master, I use rc-505 as master midi clock, because it sets the tempo for the click. I would go rc-505 midi out - Keyboard and then midi out from keyboard to tc helicon midi in. hope that helps

[@markbrownell4890]

In my opinion this video is the most important information regarding the RC-505 as the master midi clock. I added a few tweaks last night and can slave 6 outboard sequencers with the 505 as the master clock. "Midi Setup Boss RC-505 So I have another way of going about all this sync stuff. Make the RC-505 and it's internal midi clock the master. Once I did that, thru a tech cheat, I got rid of all the artifacts and the pesky re-altering of the destination tempo speeds. You need to burn the first track temporarily and save it at the speed that you will develop your outboard sequences at. You make templates that contain an audio click track that you can live with later when you develop sequences or any other tempo required consistencies. The 505 has an algorithm that does a comparison of the existing master tempo set for a song and the ( midi sync on ) for each track. It will reconfigure this when you are done creating the first track of any song. So if the desired destination click track is set at the same tempo as the master track speed then the conflict at the first recording is resolved. So your start position must have a first recorded track with the matching speed. I just cut the output volume on the first recorded track and start looping what I want to use on the second track. The RC-505 is put to sleep because it is done trying to quantize and calculate the new master tempo speed. Using a clear click track helps. The 505 is intuitive in that it attempts to set a new master tempo speed. Once that corrected tempo is thrown into the mix, pun intended, you get those pesky artifacts disappearing. Now when my start and stop midi messages coming from the RC-505 get sent out all my downstream sequences in other gear all all in sync. The secret is to make the RC-505 the master and to trick it into liking the speed of the first track. I have not experimented with dropping the template track after several other loops are recorded. It would be interesting to see if the 505 will try to reset the master tempo speed or not. It depends on what you record I guess. I start by recording my outboard sequencer stuff, like a snapshot of what it currently is like. Then I mute the outboard tracks and run internally on the 505 loop track. I do this because I'm using a Line 6 Helix as my effects chain while recording loops or overdubbing existing loops. Then later in the performance I can fader out of the loop while bring up the original outboard sequences. Anyway these loops of outboard sequences are already performed at the same desired tempo speed. So it all comes down to when the master midi sync clock speed is accepted by the 505. I tried to reverse all this by making the 505 the slave. The algorithm to reset the master tempo speed can't be defeated. It's a great thing that the 505 sets a first track's master speed on it's own. But it can play all kinds of heck with downstream slaved tempos. The artifacts come from when the clock speed or tempo changes. I hope a few people try to do more work on this. The secret is to make the 505 the master and the other sequencers the slaves." Thank you Reinhardt Buhr

[@imBKCmmk]

Dude, what?

[@imBKCmmk]

Ok, I read it again. Got it. Thanks.

[@thelabby9998]

Just use the inboard click and loop in time… it’s not weird algorythm, it’s common sense! If rc is the master… listen its click! Good news for non-clock workflows… new loopy pro app will get the bpm from the first “loopable” audio in the first loop (it evens trim unnecessary audio from it) but that feature will hardly arrive to any hardware looper any time soon. Hope it helps and blessings

[@SteveGuitar]

Reinhardt, amazing work! Your videos and music are incredible. So we’ll done in every way. Question: does the 505 record everything from the circuit? Or does it just sync and play it? In other words, if you stopped everything on the circuit, would 100% of the sounds from the circuit go away? Or does anything from the circuit record onto the 505? My hope is that I could keep a drumbeat going by midi at all times but not actually record it on to any of the five tracks,. But when I want to, I’d love to ecord the synthesizer part of the circuit onto one of the tracks of the 505. Possible?

Brilliant bud, tell me is there no setting you have to put into the Rc505 so that it recognises the other midi units, also is the Novation connected to a laptop or does it have its own sound engine. I use to have the Push 2 and it irritated me that i needed to take a laptop everywhere with me. Once again thanks and Bless you for sharing your talent. Would love to hear you do some kind of pop cover of say Ed Sheeran f you do those. Many thanks bud

I've moved on from trying to sync a looper to a sequencer. I sold my RC-505 and moved up to an Arturia Keystep Pro with a hybrid Eurorack mixed with line level effects and one outboard synth. The RC-505 likes to pick its own tempo on the first track looped. That messes everything else up.

[@NomSon3]

I do have a question, But I may find the answer once looking more at your videos.. So I’m definitely going to buy a Yamaha mixer- so I can connect my bass/guitar/keys to the mixer.

[@elijahlucian]

do you know of a way to use an external clock with the 505? I have a beatstep pro which I would like to serve as the master to the RC-505 and my tr-08. I keep getting "midi error"

[@Muddbruv]

Worth noting the output from the circuit can be routed via the 505 and looped or ran seperate output and not looped (but still time controlled) the downside of the later being effects such as Beat Repeat will not work on the NC sequence,afaik.

[@alexhamill12345]

Do you by chance know if I could run the rc505 into an ableton controller like the apc40 to get a similar result. I have a very similar setup to yours I would just like to incorporate ableton so I can make backtracks to jam over

[@ConsciousBrosCommunity]

Pro tip for all those who want to *slave* the 505 to other devices without the dreaded glitches and artifacts - simply filter out everything except clock (and CC's if using those) from the midi stream going into the 505 :) Don't ask me why, it just works. Silly Boss seems to not give a føck, but at least this works fine - no need to turn of tempo sync and all of that bullshit

[@ringoze]

I slaved the RC-202 to an Alesis Sr16 drum machine and sent out just clock sync with no drum notes, but issue still exists.

[@DexterPiano]

Thank you ! I don't know how to do that on mac :'(

[@ConsciousBrosCommunity]

@@ringoze You still have to filter the midi stream regardless, in my experience that is what works.

Your only using midi ie your tempo is controlled by the midi.... Go output of audio from novation to input of looper that may fix it... After research I'm buying a 505 time is my best hardest looping original love you to check it out ...hope this helps and works .

[@stephenlangevin5270]

Great video Reinhardt. I have a question. At the completion of your first loop, is that what triggers the 505 to start sending clock to your Novation Circuit? If this is the case, I assume the 505 sends a midi start/MMC play message to the circuit? I want to be able to create a loop, and have an rc-202 be the master clock for an akai force, and I'm hoping I can have similar results. Keep up the great work.

Hello Could you please tell me how the “tempo sync” works in RC505 edit settings and for what purpose.

I thought I used to be able to manipulate/alter the tempo of these in the past but not working for me again lately... or was I just dreaming? Is it possible to alter the tempo of input fed into the RC505, after saving it as a loop?, and if so, how?

Love your videos man! Also have a question. I see you’re able to build a loop with several layers before activating your Circuit for the beat and once you do it’s synced up, but I am struggling to do the same with my setup. Every time I hit rec/play it starts my drum machine automatically. Is there a setting within the rc-505 that you had to set so that you could trigger your circuit on its own? I am trying to do this with a Korg Volca as my sequencer, perhaps this is something that only the circuit does or just something the Volca can’t do. Thought I’d ask in case you had any ideas and before I resulted to buying new gear. Cheers
