Excuse my nooby question, but i am quite new to Elektron family.
I’ve try to connect my A4 as a slave with my Novation Circuit as a master to play midi (from Chanel 1 or 2 on Circuit) and use Circuit as a sequencer. Is It possible???
Please if anyone can help me how can i do it? I’ve been reading manual and go thru all this Midi setting but nothing seems to make A4 or AR respond.
input from Midi, receive notes, receive cc/nrpn (Midi port config)
program channel in AUTO, Auto channel 1 (Midi Chanels)
Cuircuit and midi cable seems to work “ok” and send clock, transport when connected to my Korg Electribe 2
I cant have any respond from my A4 and AR
Are my settings wrong?
Please help
Hey Peter thanks for your interest

Hi Cosmic,
My setting on the Circus are as follow:
MIDI Rx and MIDITx are ON and Internal clock is ON
regarding your second question
Iam not connecting via USB but A4 give me alternative - “Overbridge Mode or USB - Midi Only”
When i am synchronizing A4 with Electribe 2 everything works correctly
when i am synchronizing Electribe 2 and Circus everything works correctly
but
when i am trying to synchronize A4 with Circus looks like there is no connection
thanks Cosmic,
yes A4 and AR receive and send the clock to Electribe
as
Electribe receive and send the clock to Circuit
no connection between
A4 / AR and Circuit
Hi waki
Maybe try a different midi cable, otherwise im out of ideas. I have a4 and circuit but my circuit is not with me for a few weeks so cannot check it.
Thanks Cosmic,
This idea coming to my head since yesterday, that maybe MIDI cable causing this problem, but on the other hand why synchronisation between Electribe and Circuit works as charm, same as A4 / AR Electribe (both on same cable)???
I will buy new cable tomorrow
[Moderator’s note: because of the amount of discussion so far, I moved @waki’s question out of the main Topic on the Novation Circuit to make this new Topic.]
I bought new MIDI cable today. Both machines (A4 and Circuit) works together as a charm. That was something what i really can not explain - especially i menage to synchronise A4 and Electribe 2 using previous Midi cable without any problems. Looks like it wasn’t enough to make connection with the Circuit. Thanks - Cosmic and Peter Hanes - for yours suggestions - now is time to make some music!
