djDecks

I'm not sure if I understand 100% what you are doing, and what the exact problem is.

If I understand it correctly, you are using regular vinyl, and passing the sound to djDecks through the maya.
djDecks then calculates the bpm, and sends it to ableton.
Now I'm not 100% sure, but I think the bpm calculation is done before the echo/loop effect, so enabling a loop will not necessarily keep the bpm.
So if the source is stopped or has no detectable bpm, then the bpm might indeed change, and ableton will thus get the wrong tempo.

If the skip is actually an audio drop-out then it could indeed be a cpu spike problem. Especially since you cannot record the glitch, this appears to be the case.
In this case you could increase the latency of the soundcard used by ableton.

If you only use djDecks to detect the bpm, then you could take a look at and see if it works better for you.

Got the exact same problem. At first ableton runs in sync with DjDecks. But a little later ableton lags a bit and everything is out of sync. When i look at the blinking licht in ableton that displays the clock signal, the light also lags. So I don't think it's ableton. I tried it with ableton and djdecks on the same pc (midi over MidiYoke), I also tried it with djdecks and ableton on different pc's (midi over ipMIDI). Both having exact the same problem. Did you get it to work ?

Thanks,

hi,
i´m using the shareware version of the bpmtomidi standalone application v0.51 to sync a shoutcaststream with winamp to the ni kore2 via midioverlan software. i´m still testing all things out but you can send a start - stop signal via midiclock program to the ni kore2 soft.

however, when bpmtomidi app loses the sync, it jumps always up and down from 160 to 80 bpm and backwards which isn´t really nice for the second computer.

ok. the bpmtomidivst plugin v0.81 works more accurate and doesnt jump i think. just watched it for a while

one question to all the djdecks people:
how to get the bpmtomidivst plugin send out the bpm data to the midi out port or where is the trick with installing it?
i have a registration code already and tried out nearly everything to open the port.
