Getting Timecode from Iannix to Usine

Hi,
I am trying to sync Iannix and Usine.
As Iannix doesn't seem to be able to send MTC or MidiClock, I tried to send SMPTE via OSC.
It works so far, I can send the global elapsed time via OSC.
But the problems are:
1. I don't know how get this read by Usine's syncro module,
2. The Timecode is send as text value.
I didn't find a way to a) connect this OSC-value to a syncro module, b) translate this text to regular smpte
Does anyone has an idea how to do this?
Or is there a better and easier way of getting both timecode synced?
Thanks a lot,
Christian

Please share a picture of your OSC Receive Module with the text value you receive. With several text modules, we certainely can achieve what you are looking for.
All the best

Hi Sylvain,
thanks for your answer.
Here is a screenshot of the osc module. If you need more info, please let me know.

Hello Christian,
To achieve what you're looking for, we need to translate the string into ms. Actually, we have no solution in Usine to deal with a string like that.
So, unfortunately, I don't have a solution for you at the moment.
But, I spoke to Senso right now, and as I understand, in the next release, you will find a string inlet on the "Set SMPTE" module, and normally it will do the job.
I don't know Iannix a lot, so I can't have a try, but maybe you can send the SMPTE informations in another form, like arrays, it would be simplier to deal with it.
All the best
Sylvain

Hello, I have download last Iannix version and test it
if you use the MIDI out named
from Iannix, then activate
in from Iannix in Usine/MIDI in, you can receive Sync and SMPTE ?:

Hmmm,
that seems to be a Mac-only feature...
I tried it on Linux and Windows, both do not have a "From Iannix" option.
Using tools like loopBe or loopMidi don't seem to work. All other midi works fine, even the "sequencer transport option", but no timecode / smpte…
I think I will have to try to reach someone from Iannix, but the forum seems to be quite dead…
Thanks a lot so far!

As I said before, just be patient, a new release arrived soon with the improvment you are looking for, one days or two for sure
