Triggering record tape from external sequencer

Hi there !
Sorry if the subject has already been solved or the question asked but is there any way to trigger the record button in tape mode using an external device.

I was able to control my OP-1 using the ios app BeatHawk but even I can hear every single note played, it doesn’t trigger the record button in tape mode.

It is a nightmare to try to synchronise it…

Is there a workaround or a solution to my problem ?

Thanks in advance !
