Destinations Page

The Destinations page allows you to set up the synchronization outputs, and to determine which external signals leave the application.

MIDI Clock Destinations

In the MIDI Clock Destinations section, you can select any MIDI ports that you want to output MIDI clock. Some MIDI devices, such as drum machines, can match their tempo and location to incoming MIDI clock.

MIDI Clock Preferences

In the MIDI Clock Preferences section, the following options are available:

MIDI Clock Follows Project Position: Ensures that the MIDI clock follows Cubase.
Always Send Start Message: MIDI clock transport commands include start, stop, and continue. Activate this if a MIDI device does not recognize the continue command.
Send MIDI Clock in Stop Mode: Activate this if a MIDI device needs MIDI clock to run continuously in order to operate arpeggiators and loop generators.

MIDI Timecode Destinations

In the MIDI Timecode Destinations section, you can specify the MIDI ports to which MTC is routed.

Note

Some MIDI interfaces send MTC over all ports by default. If this is the case, only select one port of the interface for the MTC.

MIDI Timecode Preferences

In the MIDI Timecode Preferences section, the following options are available:

MIDI Timecode Follows Project Time: Ensures that the MTC output always follows the time position of Cubase.; Allows you to specify an offset to be applied to outgoing MTC. The amount of offset is added or subtracted from the project’s current position before being transmitted.
