This one's not a bug report, but a feature request that would make life so much better for me. I'm using adobe audition as a multitrack tape machine and soundesk for my softsynths and audio ins, which I pipe over to adobe audition using the virtual audio cables. Works like a treat. The separation of concerns between a simple tape machine type app for tracking, and sounddesk for all my instruments, is like nearly as good as having a load of vintage hardware and a multitrack tape in a dawless config. Really accelerates the creative flow for me not being overwhelmed by a clunky and janky daw. I'm sure I'm not alone in wanting a virtual dawless setup. Seems like Soundesk is the only thing in the mac ecosphere that will facilitate this. Good work guys!
Problem is when it comes to Drum machines, I can get MTC timecode out of audition using Lockstep, but I cannot for the life of me find anything that will start a midi clock, based on MTC sync, apart from booting up a daw like reaper or ableton which sort of defeats the point of my lightweight semi dawless set up (audition and sounddesk).
It would be awesome if soundesk clock could be synced to start stop with midi timecode. Currently sounddesk shows timecode and bars/beats - which just runs forever, unless you dig in to the time window and press reset. That just feels off, especially when you've got things like ezdrummer on a channel, which will sync to host. At the very least it should have a start, stop, reset button on the timecode readout display so I my drum machines aren't running all the time (without going into the individual plugs) - MTC sync control on the existing clock in midi input would be absolutely ideal though.
