Does my MIDI pocket piano send or receive tempo information

I’m trying to get it to set or receive the tempo from Ableton or Logic but can do neither

Any ideas greatly appreciated. I’ve read everything I could find but I’m still none the wiser.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Yes the Pocket Piano MIDI can send or receive MIDI Clock when set to modes with a Rate knob. This is covered on page 2 of the manual:

If it isn’t working are you sure that you have connected to the correct MIDI port on the PP?

Yeah I thought as much. I read the manual.
I can’t seem to get it to either send the clock or receive the clock. I have it plugged in correctly, I believe.

I have my “midi man” usb interface set to USB/Merge instead of passthrough.

Here are some of my settings; does anything look obviously wrong?

NVM. I think what was happening is that it wasn’t sending the clock without me playing the track. Which is me being a dummy. \

Thanks!
