I need a few clarifications on SMPTE concerning keyboards. In my case its a korg triton going to the PC. Im asking this because I was looking at a USB 2x2 midi interface by m-audio and it did not have SMPTE capabilities. The only one that had smpte was the 8 in 8 out one, but I dont have and wont have that many midi devices to take full advantage of that one.
Do I need an interface that can generate SMPTE for the triton to work the best with the software (logic and cubase). I noticed the timing in cubase was a little off in some spots perhaps due to the SMPTE configurations and not my Gadget Labs card. No idea of how to configure it. I just set everything to midi time clock for the triton and left the others to default.
Im confused also because I have read around websites and spec pages and there has been a few references to SMPTE converting into Midi Time Clock. How can they switch? I thought SMPTE was just for film shite. If someone could tell me a little about the process of Midi Time Code and Midi Time Clock and what actually goes on with the input and output process Id appreciate it.
