Yet another MPC 1000 Logic 7 Sync post

i searched through the forum archives and didnt find the sync problem im having with my particular setup. im trying to slave the mpc from logic and have the mpc output signal its coaxial spdif.

im using a m-audio 410, logic 7 (duh), and the MPC 1k. i have the midi connected (midi out from the 410 to in the MPC) and the spdif out from the MPC to the 410 spdif in. i set my song settings appropriatly in logic, and the sync stuff appropriatly in the MPC.

now when i hit play in L7, the MPC starts, but the SPL in logic doesnt move at all. and on top of it all, the MPC doesnt read "EXT" like its suppose to in slave mode.

the odd thing is when i do this same setup with the analog outputs, everything works hunky dory.

incidentally, i can slave logic to the mp and i have no problems real problems with logic following the mp.

i have a feeling there might be a digital clocking issue, but im not sure.

anybody out there have a similar setup? and the same problem?

Try adjusting your input clock for S/PDIF on your audio interface. I'm not familiar with your setup, but I'm sure there's gotta be an option on your audio interface that'll allow you to change those settings.

if i set spdif external on the my 410 (meaning the mp with clock the 410.. which i may not really want) then i actually get signal from the mp, but still the sync doesnt happen.

if i set the spdif internal on the 410, i get no signal at all.

i hate this digital shit.. i just really need to use those extra inputs if i can.

There must be something you're overlooking in Logic 7 then. I havent used Logic in a long time, so all I can suggest is to go through all your sync settings again and refer to the maunal if you can't figure it out. Good luck.
