I just picked up an 808 and was trying to figure out what I needed to sync with Ableton... Your vid and your comment answers helped me out. Thanks

Hi i was wondering if u could help me, I need to know how to sync a TB303 with a TR909 using "Deopfer MSY2" (using din sync leads) at the moment i have it setup like this...TR909 midi Sync In to--- MSY2 Sync, TB303 Sync In to---MSy2 2nd available Sync, midi out from PC (usingCubase Essential5) to--- MSY2 Midi In...

I cant seem to have the tr909 & tb303 to stay in tempo sync, 1 or both the tb303 & tr909 keeps gradually fading out of sync, is anyone familiar with this kind of issue?

Thanks!

@Filthdrive yes it does the same to me with the 303 or the 909 (only or both)...it goes out of sync...it depends on software, not on the machines, in fact if you use the machines linked stand alone they work and keep sync flawlessy!! I had great problems with Cubase & Nuendo. Using Ableton it goes better, but sometimes not!!!

@frankieserious "use the machines linked stand alone they work and keep sync flawlessy!!" ..i cant even get that right lol i thought it might be to do with damn Cubase! lol

I have Abelton live lite (free version) somewhere, do you think they will work ok with abelton live lite? Thanks for responding!

[frankieserious]

@Filthdrive not always...sometimes it works, sometimes not and loose sync (using Ableton). With Cubase or Nuendo it's almost impossible!!

@frankieserious thank you for your answer :) SYNC cable ordered !

[frankieserious]

@Slight79 Hello there, you need to use a SYNC24 cable in order to connect the doepfer to the TB303 and then a MIDI cable from the doepfer to your computer. Cheers ;)

[Slight79]

Did you use MIDI cable or SYNC cable to connect your TB 303 to the Doepfer ?

Thanx for your answer !

I use the 303 linked to the 808 all the time, but MAN, I really like the 303 linked to the 606 WAY BETTER!!
