2
In the Sync IN area of the Sync Mode dialog box, set the IN field to the
MIDI device you are using as the synchronization input.
* If you are synchronizing with a MIDI sequencer that is running on the same
computer, select “Roland VariOS Sync” as the MIDI device.

3
Set the Type of sync field to “MIDI Clock.”
4
Click [OK] .
V-Producer will now synchronize to the playback of the master program.
* If V-Producer’s loop mode is on, V-Producer will give priority to its own looping
rather than to the playback location of the master MIDI sequencer.
* If Sync mode is [MIDI] , you cannot use the controls of the locator section to start
playback or control the tempo. If you want to control playback from the locator, set
the Sync mode to
[INT] .
* You can also switch the Sync mode by using the Sync buttons in the locator.

Most sequencers do not re-
transmit playback position
data at the beginning of a
loop. Thus, if your master
sequencer is set to loop the
playback, V-Producer will
ignore the looping of the
sequencer, and will simply
continue playing as it had
been. To avoid this
problem, set V-Producer to
the same loop region as the
loop region in your master
sequencer, and turn on
loop mode.
