Syncing play/stop between OP-XY + OP-1F

Something I would have thought would “just work” but doesn’t seem to after a bunch of faffing around. Basically I want to be able to work on both the OP-1F and OP-XY at the same time and have transport sync’ed between the two, e.g.

  • pressing play on one is like pressing play on both simultaneously
  • pressing stop on one is like pressing stop on both simultaneously

Does anyone have this working or know how to get it to “just work”, either via bluetooth or via cables?

I’ve had no problem with this, both using Bluetooth and USB-C.

I’ve set it up with the OP-1F as sending master clock, with the XY set to receive.

I’ve been doing this as well. I have the OP-XY as master clock as I intend to sync another piece of gear as well. (not happening so far) anyway…
OP-XY:
Com>System>MIDI:
clock out, notes out, other out
active track channel 1
echo off

OP-1f:
Shift + Com>MIDI:
channel 1
clock in, notes in, other in
Tempo:
Beatmatch

All the sync I get is stop/start. There is no position information being sent so I can’t rewind the tape from the OP-XY.
If I choose Tempo>MIDI Sync in the OP-1f, the tempos sync but pressing Play on the OP-XY starts the tape from the beginning every time.
If I choose Beat Match on the OP-1f I need to set the tempo manually but then I can press start on the OP-XY and start the tape at any spot.

Maybe check in the OP-XY under Com>Devices and choose the OP-1f to make sure the settings there are correct.

All this comes with the understanding that I struggle a lot with the MIDI connections on the TE stuff. I’m frustrated this morning trying to get everything working the way it did last evening.
